1 Purpose

f08ajc generates all or part of the real orthogonal matrix Q from an LQ factorization computed by f08ahc.

2 Specification

#include <nag.h>
void  f08ajc (Nag_OrderType order, Integer m, Integer n, Integer k, double a[], Integer pda, const double tau[], NagError *fail)
The function may be called by the names: f08ajc, nag_lapackeig_dorglq or nag_dorglq.

3 Description

f08ajc is intended to be used after a call to f08ahc, which performs an LQ factorization of a real matrix A. The orthogonal matrix Q is represented as a product of elementary reflectors.
This function may be used to generate Q explicitly as a square matrix, or to form only its leading rows.
Usually Q is determined from the LQ factorization of a p×n matrix A with pn. The whole of Q may be computed by :
nag_lapackeig_dorglq(order,n,n,p,a,pda,tau,&fail)
(note that the array a must have at least n rows) or its leading p rows by :
nag_lapackeig_dorglq(order,p,n,p,a,pda,tau,&fail)
The rows of Q returned by the last call form an orthonormal basis for the space spanned by the rows of A; thus f08ahc followed by f08ajc can be used to orthogonalize the rows of A.
The information returned by the LQ factorization functions also yields the LQ factorization of the leading k rows of A, where k<p. The orthogonal matrix arising from this factorization can be computed by :
nag_lapackeig_dorglq(order,n,n,k,a,pda,tau,&fail)
or its leading k rows by :
nag_lapackeig_dorglq(order,k,n,k,a,pda,tau,&fail)

5 Arguments

1: order Nag_OrderType Input
On entry: the order argument specifies the two-dimensional storage scheme being used, i.e., row-major ordering or column-major ordering. C language defined storage is specified by order=Nag_RowMajor. See Section 3.1.3 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for a more detailed explanation of the use of this argument.
Constraint: order=Nag_RowMajor or Nag_ColMajor.
2: m Integer Input
On entry: m, the number of rows of the matrix Q.
Constraint: m0.
3: n Integer Input
On entry: n, the number of columns of the matrix Q.
Constraint: nm.
4: k Integer Input
On entry: k, the number of elementary reflectors whose product defines the matrix Q.
Constraint: mk0.
5: a[dim] double Input/Output
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array a must be at least
  • max(1,pda×n) when order=Nag_ColMajor;
  • max(1,m×pda) when order=Nag_RowMajor.
On entry: details of the vectors which define the elementary reflectors, as returned by f08ahc.
On exit: the m×n matrix Q.
6: pda Integer Input
On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) in the array a.
Constraints:
  • if order=Nag_ColMajor, pdamax(1,m);
  • if order=Nag_RowMajor, pdamax(1,n).
7: tau[dim] const double Input
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array tau must be at least max(1,k).
On entry: further details of the elementary reflectors, as returned by f08ahc.
8: fail NagError * Input/Output
The NAG error argument (see Section 7 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface).

7 Accuracy

The computed matrix Q differs from an exactly orthogonal matrix by a matrix E such that
E2 = O(ε) ,  
where ε is the machine precision.

8 Parallelism and Performance

Background information to multithreading can be found in the Multithreading documentation.
f08ajc 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 function. Please also consult the Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.

9 Further Comments

The total number of floating-point operations is approximately 4mnk-2 (m+n) k2 + 43 k3 ; when m=k, the number is approximately 23 m2 (3n-m) .
The complex analogue of this function is f08awc.

10 Example

This example forms the leading 4 rows of the orthogonal matrix Q from the LQ factorization of the matrix A, where
A = ( -5.42 3.28 -3.68 0.27 2.06 0.46 -1.65 -3.40 -3.20 -1.03 -4.06 -0.01 -0.37 2.35 1.90 4.31 -1.76 1.13 -3.15 -0.11 1.99 -2.70 0.26 4.50 ) .  
The rows of Q form an orthonormal basis for the space spanned by the rows of A.
