## 1Purpose

f11xsf computes a matrix-vector product involving a complex sparse Hermitian matrix stored in symmetric coordinate storage format.

## 2Specification

Fortran Interface
 Subroutine f11xsf ( n, nnz, a, irow, icol, x, y,
 Integer, Intent (In) :: n, nnz, irow(nnz), icol(nnz) Integer, Intent (Inout) :: ifail Complex (Kind=nag_wp), Intent (In) :: a(nnz), x(n) Complex (Kind=nag_wp), Intent (Out) :: y(n) Character (1), Intent (In) :: check
#include <nag.h>
 void f11xsf_ (const Integer *n, const Integer *nnz, const Complex a[], const Integer irow[], const Integer icol[], const char *check, const Complex x[], Complex y[], Integer *ifail, const Charlen length_check)
The routine may be called by the names f11xsf or nagf_sparse_complex_herm_matvec.

## 3Description

f11xsf computes the matrix-vector product
 $y=Ax$
where $A$ is an $n×n$ complex Hermitian sparse matrix, of arbitrary sparsity pattern, stored in symmetric coordinate storage (SCS) format (see Section 2.1.2 in the F11 Chapter Introduction). The array a stores all the nonzero elements in the lower triangular part of $A$, while arrays irow and icol store the corresponding row and column indices respectively.

None.

## 5Arguments

1: $\mathbf{n}$Integer Input
On entry: $n$, the order of the matrix $A$.
Constraint: ${\mathbf{n}}\ge 1$.
2: $\mathbf{nnz}$Integer Input
On entry: the number of nonzero elements in the lower triangular part of the matrix $A$.
Constraint: $1\le {\mathbf{nnz}}\le {\mathbf{n}}×\left({\mathbf{n}}+1\right)/2$.
3: $\mathbf{a}\left({\mathbf{nnz}}\right)$Complex (Kind=nag_wp) array Input
On entry: the nonzero elements in the lower triangular part of the matrix $A$, ordered by increasing row index, and by increasing column index within each row. Multiple entries for the same row and column indices are not permitted. The routine f11zpf may be used to order the elements in this way.
4: $\mathbf{irow}\left({\mathbf{nnz}}\right)$Integer array Input
5: $\mathbf{icol}\left({\mathbf{nnz}}\right)$Integer array Input
On entry: the row and column indices of the nonzero elements supplied in array a.
Constraints:
irow and icol must satisfy the following constraints (which may be imposed by a call to f11zpf):
• $1\le {\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{i}\right)\le {\mathbf{n}}$ and $1\le {\mathbf{icol}}\left(\mathit{i}\right)\le {\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{i}\right)$, for $\mathit{i}=1,2,\dots ,{\mathbf{nnz}}$;
• ${\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{i}-1\right)<{\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{i}\right)$ or ${\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{i}-1\right)={\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{i}\right)$ and ${\mathbf{icol}}\left(\mathit{i}-1\right)<{\mathbf{icol}}\left(\mathit{i}\right)$, for $\mathit{i}=2,3,\dots ,{\mathbf{nnz}}$.
6: $\mathbf{check}$Character(1) Input
On entry: specifies whether or not the SCS representation of the matrix $A$, values of n, nnz, irow and icol should be checked.
${\mathbf{check}}=\text{'C'}$
Checks are carried out on the values of n, nnz, irow and icol.
${\mathbf{check}}=\text{'N'}$
None of these checks are carried out.
Constraint: ${\mathbf{check}}=\text{'C'}$ or $\text{'N'}$.
7: $\mathbf{x}\left({\mathbf{n}}\right)$Complex (Kind=nag_wp) array Input
On entry: the vector $x$.
8: $\mathbf{y}\left({\mathbf{n}}\right)$Complex (Kind=nag_wp) array Output
On exit: the vector $y$.
9: $\mathbf{ifail}$Integer Input/Output
On entry: ifail must be set to $0$, $-1$ or $1$ to set behaviour on detection of an error; these values have no effect when no error is detected.
A value of $0$ causes the printing of an error message and program execution will be halted; otherwise program execution continues. A value of $-1$ means that an error message is printed while a value of $1$ means that it is not.
If halting is not appropriate, the value $-1$ or $1$ is recommended. If message printing is undesirable, then the value $1$ is recommended. Otherwise, the value $0$ is recommended. When the value $-\mathbf{1}$ or $\mathbf{1}$ is used it is essential to test the value of ifail on exit.
On exit: ${\mathbf{ifail}}={\mathbf{0}}$ unless the routine detects an error or a warning has been flagged (see Section 6).

## 6Error Indicators and Warnings

If on entry ${\mathbf{ifail}}=0$ or $-1$, explanatory error messages are output on the current error message unit (as defined by x04aaf).
Errors or warnings detected by the routine:
${\mathbf{ifail}}=1$
On entry, ${\mathbf{check}}=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$.
Constraint: ${\mathbf{check}}=\text{'C'}$ or $\text{'N'}$.
${\mathbf{ifail}}=2$
On entry, ${\mathbf{n}}=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$.
Constraint: ${\mathbf{n}}\ge 1$.
On entry, ${\mathbf{nnz}}=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$.
Constraint: ${\mathbf{nnz}}\ge 1$.
On entry, ${\mathbf{nnz}}=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$ and ${\mathbf{n}}=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$.
Constraint: ${\mathbf{nnz}}\le {\mathbf{n}}×\left({\mathbf{n}}+1\right)/2$.
${\mathbf{ifail}}=3$
On entry, ${\mathbf{a}}\left(i\right)$ is out of order: $i=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$.
On entry, $\mathit{I}=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$, ${\mathbf{icol}}\left(\mathit{I}\right)=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$ and ${\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{I}\right)=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$.
Constraint: ${\mathbf{icol}}\left(\mathit{I}\right)\ge 1$ and ${\mathbf{icol}}\left(\mathit{I}\right)\le {\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{I}\right)$.
On entry, $i=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$, ${\mathbf{irow}}\left(i\right)=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$ and ${\mathbf{n}}=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$.
Constraint: ${\mathbf{irow}}\left(i\right)\ge 1$ and ${\mathbf{irow}}\left(i\right)\le {\mathbf{n}}$.
On entry, the location (${\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{I}\right),{\mathbf{icol}}\left(\mathit{I}\right)$) is a duplicate: $\mathit{I}=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$.
A nonzero element has been supplied which does not lie in the lower triangular part of $A$, is out of order, or has duplicate row and column indices. Consider calling f11zpf to reorder and sum or remove duplicates.

## 7Accuracy

The computed vector $y$ satisfies the error bound
 $‖y-Ax‖∞≤c(n)ε‖A‖∞‖x‖∞,$
where $c\left(n\right)$ is a modest linear function of $n$, and $\epsilon$ is the machine precision.

## 8Parallelism and Performance

f11xsf is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
f11xsf makes calls to BLAS and/or LAPACK routines, which may be threaded within the vendor library used by this implementation. Consult the documentation for the vendor library for further information.
Please consult the X06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this routine. Please also consult the Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.

### 9.1Timing

The time taken for a call to f11xsf is proportional to nnz.

## 10Example

This example reads in a complex sparse Hermitian positive definite matrix $A$ and a vector $x$. It then calls f11xsf to compute the matrix-vector product $y=Ax$.
