CL Name Style:


1 Purpose

f07jnc computes the solution to a complex system of linear equations
AX=B ,  
where A is an n×n Hermitian positive definite tridiagonal matrix, and X and B are n×r matrices.

2 Specification

#include <nag.h>
void  f07jnc (Nag_OrderType order, Integer n, Integer nrhs, double d[], Complex e[], Complex b[], Integer pdb, NagError *fail)
The function may be called by the names: f07jnc, nag_lapacklin_zptsv or nag_zptsv.

3 Description

f07jnc factors A as A=LDLH. The factored form of A is then used to solve the system of equations.

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: n Integer Input
On entry: n, the order of the matrix A.
Constraint: n0.
3: nrhs Integer Input
On entry: r, the number of right-hand sides, i.e., the number of columns of the matrix B.
Constraint: nrhs0.
4: d[dim] double Input/Output
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array d must be at least max(1,n).
On entry: the n diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix A.
On exit: the n diagonal elements of the diagonal matrix D from the factorization A=LDLH.
5: e[dim] Complex Input/Output
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array e must be at least max(1,n-1).
On entry: the (n-1) subdiagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix A.
On exit: the (n-1) subdiagonal elements of the unit bidiagonal factor L from the LDLH factorization of A. (e can also be regarded as the superdiagonal of the unit bidiagonal factor U from the UHDU factorization of A.)
6: b[dim] Complex Input/Output
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array b must be at least
  • max(1,pdb×nrhs) when order=Nag_ColMajor;
  • max(1,n×pdb) when order=Nag_RowMajor.
The (i,j)th element of the matrix B is stored in
  • b[(j-1)×pdb+i-1] when order=Nag_ColMajor;
  • b[(i-1)×pdb+j-1] when order=Nag_RowMajor.
On entry: the n×r right-hand side matrix B.
On exit: if fail.code= NE_NOERROR, the n×r solution matrix X.
7: pdb Integer Input
On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) in the array b.
Constraints:
  • if order=Nag_ColMajor, pdbmax(1,n);
  • if order=Nag_RowMajor, pdbmax(1,nrhs).
8: fail NagError * Input/Output
The NAG error argument (see Section 7 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface).

6 Error Indicators and Warnings

NE_ALLOC_FAIL
Dynamic memory allocation failed.
See Section 3.1.2 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for further information.
NE_BAD_PARAM
On entry, argument value had an illegal value.
NE_INT
On entry, n=value.
Constraint: n0.
On entry, nrhs=value.
Constraint: nrhs0.
On entry, pdb=value.
Constraint: pdb>0.
NE_INT_2
On entry, pdb=value and n=value.
Constraint: pdbmax(1,n).
On entry, pdb=value and nrhs=value.
Constraint: pdbmax(1,nrhs).
NE_INTERNAL_ERROR
An internal error has occurred in this function. Check the function call and any array sizes. If the call is correct then please contact NAG for assistance.
See Section 7.5 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for further information.
NE_MAT_NOT_POS_DEF
The leading minor of order value is not positive definite, and the solution has not been computed. The factorization has not been completed unless n=value.
NE_NO_LICENCE
Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.
See Section 8 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for further information.

7 Accuracy

The computed solution for a single right-hand side, x^ , satisfies an equation of the form
(A+E) x^=b ,  
where
E1 = O(ε) A1  
and ε is the machine precision. An approximate error bound for the computed solution is given by
x^-x1 x1 κ(A) E1 A1 ,  
where κ (A) = A-11 A1 , the condition number of A with respect to the solution of the linear equations. See Section 4.4 of Anderson et al. (1999) for further details.
f07jpc is a comprehensive LAPACK driver that returns forward and backward error bounds and an estimate of the condition number. Alternatively, f04cgc solves Ax=b and returns a forward error bound and condition estimate. f04cgc calls f07jnc to solve the equations.

8 Parallelism and Performance

Background information to multithreading can be found in the Multithreading documentation.
f07jnc 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 number of floating-point operations required for the factorization of A is proportional to n , and the number of floating-point operations required for the solution of the equations is proportional to nr , where r is the number of right-hand sides.
The real analogue of this function is f07jac.

10 Example

This example solves the equations

and
b = ( 64.0+16.0i 93.0+62.0i 78.0-80.0i 14.0-27.0i ) .
