?hprfs

Refines the solution of a system of linear equations with a packed complex Hermitian coefficient matrix and estimates the solution error.

Description

The routine performs an iterative refinement of the solution to a system of linear equations A*X = B with a packed complex Hermitian matrix A, with multiple right-hand sides. For each computed solution vector x, the routine computes the component-wise backward errorβ. This error is the smallest relative perturbation in elements of A and b such that x is the exact solution of the perturbed system:

|δa_ij| ≤β|a_ij|, |δb_i| ≤β|b_i| such that (A + δA)x = (b + δb).

Finally, the routine estimates the component-wise forward error in the computed solution ||x - x_e||_∞/||x||_∞ (here x_e is the exact solution).

Before calling this routine:

call the factorization routine ?hptrf
call the solver routine ?hptrs.

Input Parameters

matrix_layout	Specifies whether matrix storage layout is row major (LAPACK_ROW_MAJOR) or column major (LAPACK_COL_MAJOR).
uplo	Must be 'U' or 'L'. If `uplo = 'U'`, the upper triangle of `A` is stored. If `uplo = 'L'`, the lower triangle of `A` is stored.
n	The order of the matrix `A`; `n`≥ 0.
nrhs	The number of right-hand sides; `nrhs`≥ 0.
ap,afp,b,x	Arrays: `ap`max(1, n(n + 1)/2) contains the original packed matrix `A`, as supplied to ?hptrf. `afp`max(1, n(n + 1)/2) contains the factored packed matrix `A`, as returned by ?hptrf. `b`of size max(1, ldbnrhs) for column major layout and max(1, ldbn) for row major layout contains the right-hand side matrix `B`. `x`of size max(1, ldxnrhs) for column major layout and max(1, ldxn) for row major layout contains the solution matrix `X`.
ldb	The leading dimension of `b`; `ldb`≥ max(1, n) for column major layout and `ldb`≥nrhs for row major layout.
ldx	The leading dimension of `x`; `ldx`≥ max(1, n) for column major layout and `ldx`≥nrhs for row major layout.
ipiv	Array, size at least `max(1, n)`. The `ipiv` array, as returned by ?hptrf.

Output Parameters

x	The refined solution matrix `X`.
ferr, berr	Arrays, size at least `max(1,nrhs)`. Contain the component-wise forward and backward errors, respectively, for each solution vector.

Return Values

This function returns a value info.

If info = 0, the execution is successful.

If info = -i, parameter i had an illegal value.

Application Notes

The bounds returned in ferr are not rigorous, but in practice they almost always overestimate the actual error.

For each right-hand side, computation of the backward error involves a minimum of 16n² operations. In addition, each step of iterative refinement involves 24n² operations; the number of iterations may range from 1 to 5.

Estimating the forward error involves solving a number of systems of linear equations A*x = b; the number is usually 4 or 5 and never more than 11. Each solution requires approximately 8n² floating-point operations.

The real counterpart of this routine is ?ssprfs/?dsprfs.
