CPFTRF

Function/Subroutine Documentation

  subroutine cpftrf (character transr, character uplo, integer n, complex, dimension( 0: * ) a, integer info)

CPFTRF

Purpose:

     CPFTRF computes the Cholesky factorization of a complex Hermitian
     positive definite matrix A.
     The factorization has the form
        A = U**H * U,  if UPLO = 'U', or
        A = L  * L**H,  if UPLO = 'L',
     where U is an upper triangular matrix and L is lower triangular.
     This is the block version of the algorithm, calling Level 3 BLAS.

Parameters
    TRANSR

              TRANSR is CHARACTER*1
              = 'N':  The Normal TRANSR of RFP A is stored;
              = 'C':  The Conjugate-transpose TRANSR of RFP A is stored.

    UPLO

              UPLO is CHARACTER*1
              = 'U':  Upper triangle of RFP A is stored;
              = 'L':  Lower triangle of RFP A is stored.

    N

              N is INTEGER
              The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.

    A

              A is COMPLEX array, dimension ( N*(N+1)/2 );
              On entry, the Hermitian matrix A in RFP format. RFP format is
              described by TRANSR, UPLO, and N as follows: If TRANSR = 'N'
              then RFP A is (0:N,0:k-1) when N is even; k=N/2. RFP A is
              (0:N-1,0:k) when N is odd; k=N/2. IF TRANSR = 'C' then RFP is
              the Conjugate-transpose of RFP A as defined when
              TRANSR = 'N'. The contents of RFP A are defined by UPLO as
              follows: If UPLO = 'U' the RFP A contains the nt elements of
              upper packed A. If UPLO = 'L' the RFP A contains the elements
              of lower packed A. The LDA of RFP A is (N+1)/2 when TRANSR =
              'C'. When TRANSR is 'N' the LDA is N+1 when N is even and N
              is odd. See the Note below for more details.
              On exit, if INFO = 0, the factor U or L from the Cholesky
              factorization RFP A = U**H*U or RFP A = L*L**H.

    INFO

              INFO is INTEGER
              = 0:  successful exit
              < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
              > 0:  if INFO = i, the leading principal minor of order i
                    is not positive, and the factorization could not be
                    completed.
      Further Notes on RFP Format:
      ============================
      We first consider Standard Packed Format when N is even.
      We give an example where N = 6.

      Let TRANSR = 'N'. RFP holds AP as follows:
      For UPLO = 'U' the upper trapezoid A(0:5,0:2) consists of the last
      three columns of AP upper. The lower triangle A(4:6,0:2) consists of
      conjugate-transpose of the first three columns of AP upper.
      For UPLO = 'L' the lower trapezoid A(1:6,0:2) consists of the first
      three columns of AP lower. The upper triangle A(0:2,0:2) consists of
      conjugate-transpose of the last three columns of AP lower.
      To denote conjugate we place -- above the element. This covers the
      case N even and TRANSR = 'N'.

            02 12 22                50 51 52
      Now let TRANSR = 'C'. RFP A in both UPLO cases is just the conjugate-
      transpose of RFP A above. One therefore gets:
               RFP A                   RFP A

      We next  consider Standard Packed Format when N is odd.
      We give an example where N = 5.

      Let TRANSR = 'N'. RFP holds AP as follows:
      For UPLO = 'U' the upper trapezoid A(0:4,0:2) consists of the last
      three columns of AP upper. The lower triangle A(3:4,0:1) consists of
      conjugate-transpose of the first two   columns of AP upper.
      For UPLO = 'L' the lower trapezoid A(0:4,0:2) consists of the first
      three columns of AP lower. The upper triangle A(0:1,1:2) consists of
      conjugate-transpose of the last two   columns of AP lower.
      To denote conjugate we place -- above the element. This covers the
      case N odd  and TRANSR = 'N'.
