PCUNMRZ 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for PCUNMRZ — LAPACK routine, version 1.5 energy, distributed complex matrix realness. it's giving main character linear algebra. let's get into it, no cap. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

PCUNMRZ — overwrite the general complex M-by-N distributed matrix sub( C ) = C(IC:IC+M-1,JC:JC+N-1) with SIDE = 'L' SIDE = 'R' TRANS = 'N'.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the call signature, bestie. copy-paste carefully, fr fr:

       SUBROUTINE PCUNMRZ( SIDE, TRANS, M, N, K, L, A, IA, JA, DESCA, TAU, C,
                           IC, JC, DESCC, WORK, LWORK, INFO )

           CHARACTER       SIDE, TRANS

           INTEGER         IA, IC, INFO, JA, JC, K, L, LWORK, M, N

           INTEGER         DESCA( * ), DESCC( * )

           COMPLEX         A( * ), C( * ), TAU( * ), WORK( * )

🎯 PURPOSE 🎯

PCUNMRZ overwrites the general complex M-by-N distributed matrix sub( C ) = C(IC:IC+M-1,JC:JC+N-1) with:

TRANS = 'C':      Q**H * sub( C )
sub( C ) * Q**H

where Q is a complex unitary distributed matrix defined as the product of K elementary reflectors

Q = H(1)' H(2)' . . . H(k)'

as returned by PCTZRZF. Q is of order M if SIDE = 'L' and of order N if SIDE = 'R'.

📝 Notes 📝

Each global data object is described by an associated description vector. This vector stores the information required to establish the mapping between an object element and its corresponding process and memory location.

Let A be a generic term for any 2D block cyclicly distributed array. Such a global array has an associated description vector DESCA. In the following comments, the character _ should be read as "of the global array".

🧾 NOTATION STORED IN EXPLANATION

DTYPE_A(global) — stored in DESCA( DTYPE_ ): The descriptor type. In this case, DTYPE_A = 1.
CTXT_A (global) — stored in DESCA( CTXT_ ): The BLACS context handle, indicating the BLACS process grid A is distributed over. The context itself is global, but the handle (the integer value) may vary.
M_A (global) — stored in DESCA( M_ ): The number of rows in the global array A.
N_A (global) — stored in DESCA( N_ ): The number of columns in the global array A.
MB_A (global) — stored in DESCA( MB_ ): The blocking factor used to distribute the rows of the array.
NB_A (global) — stored in DESCA( NB_ ): The blocking factor used to distribute the columns of the array.
RSRC_A (global) — stored in DESCA( RSRC_ ): The process row over which the first row of the array A is distributed.
CSRC_A (global) — stored in DESCA( CSRC_ ): The process column over which the first column of the array A is distributed.
LLD_A (local) — stored in DESCA( LLD_ ): The leading dimension of the local array. LLD_A >= MAX(1,LOCr(M_A)).

Let K be the number of rows or columns of a distributed matrix, and assume that its process grid has dimension p x q. LOCr( K ) denotes the number of elements of K that a process would receive if K were distributed over the p processes of its process column. Similarly, LOCc( K ) denotes the number of elements of K that a process would receive if K were distributed over the q processes of its process row. The values of LOCr() and LOCc() may be determined via a call to the ScaLAPACK tool function, NUMROC:

        LOCr( M ) = NUMROC( M, MB_A, MYROW, RSRC_A, NPROW ),
        LOCc( N ) = NUMROC( N, NB_A, MYCOL, CSRC_A, NPCOL ).

An upper bound for these quantities may be computed by:

        LOCr( M ) <= ceil( ceil(M/MB_A)/NPROW )*MB_A
        LOCc( N ) <= ceil( ceil(N/NB_A)/NPCOL )*NB_A

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

SIDE (global input) CHARACTER
- = 'L': apply Q or Q**H from the Left;
- = 'R': apply Q or Q**H from the Right.
TRANS (global input) CHARACTER
- = 'N': No transpose, apply Q;
- = 'C': Conjugate transpose, apply Q**H.
M (global input) INTEGER The number of rows to be operated on i.e the number of rows of the distributed submatrix sub( C ). M >= 0.
N (global input) INTEGER The number of columns to be operated on i.e the number of columns of the distributed submatrix sub( C ). N >= 0.
K (global input) INTEGER The number of elementary reflectors whose product defines the matrix Q. If SIDE = 'L', M >= K >= 0, if SIDE = 'R', N >= K >= 0.
L (global input) INTEGER The columns of the distributed submatrix sub( A ) containing the meaningful part of the Householder reflectors. If SIDE = 'L', M >= L >= 0, if SIDE = 'R', N >= L >= 0.
A (local input) COMPLEX pointer into the local memory to an array of dimension (LLD_A,LOCc(JA+M-1)) if SIDE='L', and (LLD_A,LOCc(JA+N-1)) if SIDE='R', where LLD_A >= MAX(1,LOCr(IA+K-1)); On entry, the i-th row must contain the vector which defines the elementary reflector H(i), IA <= i <= IA+K-1, as returned by PCTZRZF in the K rows of its distributed matrix argument A(IA:IA+K-1,JA:*). A(IA:IA+K-1,JA:*) is modified by the routine but restored on exit.
IA (global input) INTEGER The row index in the global array A indicating the first row of sub( A ).
JA (global input) INTEGER The column index in the global array A indicating the first column of sub( A ).
DESCA (global and local input) INTEGER array of dimension DLEN_. The array descriptor for the distributed matrix A.
TAU (local input) COMPLEX, array, dimension LOCc(IA+K-1). This array contains the scalar factors TAU(i) of the elementary reflectors H(i) as returned by PCTZRZF. TAU is tied to the distributed matrix A.
C (local input/local output) COMPLEX pointer into the local memory to an array of dimension (LLD_C,LOCc(JC+N-1)). On entry, the local pieces of the distributed matrix sub(C). On exit, sub( C ) is overwritten by Q*sub( C ) or Q'*sub( C ) or sub( C )*Q' or sub( C )*Q.
IC (global input) INTEGER The row index in the global array C indicating the first row of sub( C ).
JC (global input) INTEGER The column index in the global array C indicating the first column of sub( C ).
DESCC (global and local input) INTEGER array of dimension DLEN_. The array descriptor for the distributed matrix C.
WORK (local workspace/local output) COMPLEX array, dimension (LWORK) On exit, WORK(1) returns the minimal and optimal LWORK.
LWORK (local or global input) INTEGER The dimension of the array WORK. LWORK is local input and must be at least if SIDE = 'L':

LWORK >= MAX( (MB_A*(MB_A-1))/2, (
               MpC0 + MAX( MqA0 + NUMROC( NUMROC( M+IROFFC, MB_A, 0, 0, NPROW
               ), MB_A, 0, 0, LCMP ), NqC0 ) )*MB_A ) + MB_A * MB_A

else if SIDE = 'R':

LWORK >= MAX( (MB_A*(MB_A-1))/2, (MpC0 + NqC0)*MB_A
               ) + MB_A * MB_A

end if

where LCMP = LCM / NPROW with LCM = ICLM( NPROW, NPCOL ),

IROFFA = MOD( IA-1, MB_A ), ICOFFA = MOD( JA-1, NB_A ), IACOL =
INDXG2P( JA, NB_A, MYCOL, CSRC_A, NPCOL ), MqA0 = NUMROC(
M+ICOFFA, NB_A, MYCOL, IACOL, NPCOL ),

IROFFC = MOD( IC-1, MB_C ), ICOFFC = MOD( JC-1, NB_C ), ICROW =
INDXG2P( IC, MB_C, MYROW, RSRC_C, NPROW ), ICCOL = INDXG2P( JC,
NB_C, MYCOL, CSRC_C, NPCOL ), MpC0 = NUMROC( M+IROFFC, MB_C,
MYROW, ICROW, NPROW ), NqC0 = NUMROC( N+ICOFFC, NB_C, MYCOL,
ICCOL, NPCOL ),

ILCM, INDXG2P and NUMROC are ScaLAPACK tool functions; MYROW, MYCOL, NPROW and NPCOL can be determined by calling the subroutine BLACS_GRIDINFO.

If LWORK = -1, then LWORK is global input and a workspace query is assumed; the routine only calculates the minimum and optimal size for all work arrays. Each of these values is returned in the first entry of the corresponding work array, and no error message is issued by PXERBLA.

INFO (global output) INTEGER
- = 0: successful exit
- < 0: If the i-th argument is an array and the j-entry had an illegal value, then INFO = -(i*100+j), if the i-th argument is a scalar and had an illegal value, then INFO = -i.

Alignment requirements ======================

The distributed submatrices A(IA:*, JA:*) and C(IC:IC+M-1,JC:JC+N-1) must verify some alignment properties, namely the following expressions should be true:

If SIDE = 'L', ( NB_A.EQ.MB_C .AND. ICOFFA.EQ.IROFFC ) If SIDE = 'R', ( NB_A.EQ.NB_C .AND. ICOFFA.EQ.ICOFFC .AND. IACOL.EQ.ICCOL )

okay that's the whole tea, bestie. this page is from LAPACK version 1.5, dated 12 May 1997. PCUNMRZ(l) out. slay, hydrate, and may your distributed matrices always align. 💅✨🦋
