okay so welcome to the manual page for CHPSVX from the Library Functions Manual. The source file is:

CHPSVX computes the solution to system of linear equations A * X = B for OTHER matrices.

🎀 Purpose

okay so CHPSVX uses the diagonal pivoting factorization A = U*D*U**H or A = L*D*L**H to compute the solution to a complex system of linear equations A * X = B, where A is an N-by-N Hermitian matrix stored in packed format and X and B are N-by-NRHS matrices.

Error bounds on the solution and a condition estimate are also provided.

🦋 Description

The following steps are performed:

  1. If FACT = 'N', the diagonal pivoting method is used to factor A as
A = U * D * U**H,  if UPLO = 'U', or
A = L * D * L**H,  if UPLO = 'L',

where U (or L) is a product of permutation and unit upper (lower) triangular matrices and D is Hermitian and block diagonal with 1-by-1 and 2-by-2 diagonal blocks.

  1. If some D(i,i)=0, so that D is exactly singular, then the routine returns with INFO = i. Otherwise, the factored form of A is used to estimate the condition number of the matrix A. If the reciprocal of the condition number is less than machine precision, INFO = N+1 is returned as a warning, but the routine still goes on to solve for X and compute error bounds as described below.
  2. The system of equations is solved for X using the factored form of A.
  3. Iterative refinement is applied to improve the computed solution matrix and calculate error bounds and backward error estimates for it.

💅 Parameters

  • FACT — FACT is CHARACTER*1; specifies whether or not the factored form of A has been supplied on entry.
    • = 'F': On entry, AFP and IPIV contain the factored form of A. AFP and IPIV will not be modified.
    • = 'N': The matrix A will be copied to AFP and factored.
  • UPLO — UPLO is CHARACTER*1
    • = 'U': Upper triangle of A is stored;
    • = 'L': Lower triangle of A is stored.
  • N — N is INTEGER; the number of linear equations, i.e., the order of the matrix A. N >= 0.
  • NRHS — NRHS is INTEGER; the number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns of the matrices B and X. NRHS >= 0.
  • AP — AP is COMPLEX array, dimension (N*(N+1)/2); the upper or lower triangle of the Hermitian matrix A, packed columnwise in a linear array. The j-th column of A is stored in the array AP as follows:
    • if UPLO = 'U', AP(i + (j-1)*j/2) = A(i,j) for 1<=i<=j;
    • if UPLO = 'L', AP(i + (j-1)*(2*n-j)/2) = A(i,j) for j<=i<=n. See below for further details.
  • AFP — AFP is COMPLEX array, dimension (N*(N+1)/2). If FACT = 'F', then AFP is an input argument and on entry contains the block diagonal matrix D and the multipliers used to obtain the factor U or L from the factorization A = U*D*U**H or A = L*D*L**H as computed by CHPTRF, stored as a packed triangular matrix in the same storage format as A.

If FACT = 'N', then AFP is an output argument and on exit contains the block diagonal matrix D and the multipliers used to obtain the factor U or L from the factorization A = U*D*U**H or A = L*D*L**H as computed by CHPTRF, stored as a packed triangular matrix in the same storage format as A.

  • IPIV — IPIV is INTEGER array, dimension (N). If FACT = 'F', then IPIV is an input argument and on entry contains details of the interchanges and the block structure of D, as determined by CHPTRF. If IPIV(k) > 0, then rows and columns k and IPIV(k) were interchanged and D(k,k) is a 1-by-1 diagonal block. If UPLO = 'U' and IPIV(k) = IPIV(k-1) < 0, then rows and columns k-1 and -IPIV(k) were interchanged and D(k-1:k,k-1:k) is a 2-by-2 diagonal block. If UPLO = 'L' and IPIV(k) = IPIV(k+1) < 0, then rows and columns k+1 and -IPIV(k) were interchanged and D(k:k+1,k:k+1) is a 2-by-2 diagonal block.

If FACT = 'N', then IPIV is an output argument and on exit contains details of the interchanges and the block structure of D, as determined by CHPTRF.

  • B — B is COMPLEX array, dimension (LDB,NRHS); the N-by-NRHS right hand side matrix B.
  • LDB — LDB is INTEGER; the leading dimension of the array B. LDB >= max(1,N).
  • X — X is COMPLEX array, dimension (LDX,NRHS); if INFO = 0 or INFO = N+1, the N-by-NRHS solution matrix X.
  • LDX — LDX is INTEGER; the leading dimension of the array X. LDX >= max(1,N).
  • RCOND — RCOND is REAL; the estimate of the reciprocal condition number of the matrix A. If RCOND is less than the machine precision (in particular, if RCOND = 0), the matrix is singular to working precision. This condition is indicated by a return code of INFO > 0.
  • FERR — FERR is REAL array, dimension (NRHS); the estimated forward error bound for each solution vector X(j) (the j-th column of the solution matrix X). If XTRUE is the true solution corresponding to X(j), FERR(j) is an estimated upper bound for the magnitude of the largest element in (X(j) - XTRUE) divided by the magnitude of the largest element in X(j). The estimate is as reliable as the estimate for RCOND, and is almost always a slight overestimate of the true error.
  • BERR — BERR is REAL array, dimension (NRHS); the componentwise relative backward error of each solution vector X(j) (i.e., the smallest relative change in any element of A or B that makes X(j) an exact solution).
  • WORK — WORK is COMPLEX array, dimension (2*N).
  • RWORK — RWORK is REAL array, dimension (N).
  • INFO — INFO is INTEGER
    • = 0: successful exit
    • < 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
    • > 0: if INFO = i, and i is
      • <= N: D(i,i) is exactly zero. The factorization has been completed but the factor D is exactly singular, so the solution and error bounds could not be computed. RCOND = 0 is returned.
      • = N+1: D is nonsingular, but RCOND is less than machine precision, meaning that the matrix is singular to working precision. Nevertheless, the solution and error bounds are computed because there are a number of situations where the computed solution can be more accurate than the value of RCOND would suggest.

🌈 Further Details

The packed storage scheme is illustrated by the following example when N = 4, UPLO = 'U':

Two-dimensional storage of the Hermitian matrix A:

   a11 a12 a13 a14
       a22 a23 a24
           a33 a34     (aij = conjg(aji))
               a44

Packed storage of the upper triangle of A:

AP = [ a11, a12, a22, a13, a23, a33, a14, a24, a34, a44 ]
