C Header Interface
#include <nag.h>
void  f07bsf_ (const char *trans, const Integer *n, const Integer *kl, const Integer *ku, const Integer *nrhs, const Complex ab[], const Integer *ldab, const Integer ipiv[], Complex b[], const Integer *ldb, Integer *info, const Charlen length_trans)
The routine may be called by the names f07bsf, nagf_lapacklin_zgbtrs or its LAPACK name zgbtrs.

3 Description

f07bsf is used to solve a complex band system of linear equations AX=B, ATX=B or AHX=B, the routine must be preceded by a call to f07brf which computes the LU factorization of A as A=PLU. The solution is computed by forward and backward substitution.
If trans='N', the solution is computed by solving PLY=B and then UX=Y.
If trans='T', the solution is computed by solving UTY=B and then LTPTX=Y.
If trans='C', the solution is computed by solving UHY=B and then LHPTX=Y.

6 Error Indicators and Warnings

info<0
If info=-i, argument i had an illegal value. An explanatory message is output, and execution of the program is terminated.

7 Accuracy

For each right-hand side vector b, the computed solution x is the exact solution of a perturbed system of equations (A+E)x=b, where
|E|c(k)ε|L||U| ,  
c(k) is a modest linear function of k=kl+ku+1, and ε is the machine precision. This assumes kn.
If x^ is the true solution, then the computed solution x satisfies a forward error bound of the form
x-x^ x c(k)cond(A,x)ε  
where cond(A,x)=|A-1||A||x|/xcond(A)=|A-1||A|κ(A).
Note that cond(A,x) can be much smaller than cond(A), and cond(AH) (which is the same as cond(AT)) can be much larger (or smaller) than cond(A).
Forward and backward error bounds can be computed by calling f07bvf, and an estimate for κ(A) can be obtained by calling f07buf with norm='I'.

8 Parallelism and Performance

Background information to multithreading can be found in the Multithreading documentation.
f07bsf is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
f07bsf 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 Further Comments

The total number of real floating-point operations is approximately 8n(2kl+ku)r, assuming nkl and nku.
This routine may be followed by a call to f07bvf to refine the solution and return an error estimate.
The real analogue of this routine is f07bef.

10 Example

This example solves the system of equations AX=B, where
A= ( -1.65+2.26i -2.05-0.85i 0.97-2.84i 0.00+0.00i 0.00+6.30i -1.48-1.75i -3.99+4.01i 0.59-0.48i 0.00+0.00i -0.77+2.83i -1.06+1.94i 3.33-1.04i 0.00+0.00i 0.00+0.00i 4.48-1.09i -0.46-1.72i )  
and
B= ( -1.06+21.50i 12.85+02.84i -22.72-53.90i -70.22+21.57i 28.24-38.60i -20.70-31.23i -34.56+16.73i 26.01+31.97i ) .  
Here A is nonsymmetric and is treated as a band matrix, which must first be factorized by f07brf.
