call zherdb(jobz, uplo, n, kd, a, lda, d, e, tau, z, ldz, work, lwork, info)

Description

The routine reduces a complex Hermitian matrix A to symmetric tridiagonal form T by a unitary similarity transformation: A = Q*T*Q^T and optionally multiplies matrix Z by Q, or simply forms Q.

This routine reduces a full symmetric matrix A to the banded symmetric matrix B, and then to the tridiagonal symmetric matrix T with a Successive Bandwidth Reduction approach after C. Bischof's works (see for instance, [Bischof00]). ?herdb is functionally close to ?hetrd routine but the tridiagonal form may differ from those obtained by ?hetrd. Unlike ?hetrd, the orthogonal matrix Q cannot be restored from the details of matrix A on exit.

Input Parameters

jobz

CHARACTER*1. Must be 'N' or 'V'.

If jobz = 'N', then only A is reduced to T.

If jobz = 'V', then A is reduced to T and A contains Q on exit.

If jobz = 'U', then A is reduced to T and Z contains Z*Q on exit.

uplo

CHARACTER*1. Must be 'U' or 'L'.

If uplo = 'U', a stores the upper triangular part of A.

If uplo = 'L', a stores the lower triangular part of A.

n

INTEGER. The order of the matrix A (n≥ 0).

kd

INTEGER. The bandwidth of the banded matrix B (kd≥ 1, kd≤n-1).

a,z, work

COMPLEX for cherdb.

DOUBLE COMPLEX for zherdb.

a(lda,*) is an array containing either upper or lower triangular part of the matrix A, as specified by uplo.

The second dimension of a must be at least max(1, n).

z(ldz,*), the second dimension of z must be at least max(1, n).

If jobz = 'U', then the matrix z is multiplied by Q.

If jobz = 'N' or 'V', then z is not referenced.

work(lwork) is a workspace array.

lda

INTEGER. The leading dimension of a; at least max(1, n).

ldz

INTEGER. The leading dimension of z; at least max(1, n). Not referenced if jobz = 'N'

lwork

INTEGER. The size of the work array (lwork≥ (2kd+1)n+kd).

If lwork = -1, then a workspace query is assumed; the routine only calculates the optimal size of the work array, returns this value as the first entry of the work array, and no error message related to lwork is issued by xerbla.

See Application Notes for the suggested value of lwork.

Output Parameters

a

If jobz = 'V', then overwritten by Q matrix.

If jobz = 'N' or 'U', then overwritten by the banded matrix B and details of the unitary matrix Q_B to reduce A to B as specified by uplo.

z

On exit,

if jobz = 'U', then the matrix z is overwritten by Z*Q .

If jobz = 'N' or 'V', then z is not referenced.

d, e

REAL for cherdb.

DOUBLE PRECISION for zherdb.

Arrays:

d(*) contains the diagonal elements of the matrix T.

The dimension of d must be at least max(1, n).

e(*) contains the off-diagonal elements of T.

The dimension of e must be at least max(1, n-1).

tau(*) stores further details of the orthogonal matrix Q.

The dimension of tau must be at least max(1, n-kd-1).

tau

COMPLEX for cherdb.

DOUBLE COMPLEX for zherdb.

Array, size at least max(1, n-1)

Stores further details of the unitary matrix Q_B. The dimension of tau must be at least max(1, n-kd-1).

work(1)

If info=0, on exit work(1) contains the minimum value of lwork required for optimum performance. Use this lwork for subsequent runs.

info

INTEGER.

If info = 0, the execution is successful.

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

Application Notes

For better performance, try using lwork = n*(3*kd+3).

If it is not clear how much workspace to supply, use a generous value of lwork for the first run, or set lwork = -1.

In first case the routine completes the task, though probably not so fast as with a recommended workspace, and provides the recommended workspace in the first element of the corresponding array work on exit. Use this value (work(1)) for subsequent runs.

If lwork = -1, then the routine returns immediately and provides the recommended workspace in the first element of the corresponding array (work). This operation is called a workspace query.

Note that if lwork is less than the minimal required value and is not equal to -1, then the routine returns immediately with an error exit and does not provide any information on the recommended workspace.

For better performance, try using kd equal to 40 if n ≤ 2000 and 64 otherwise.

Try using ?herdb instead of ?hetrd on large matrices obtaining only eigenvalues - when no eigenvectors are needed, especially in multi-threaded environment. ?herdb becomes faster beginning approximately with n = 1000, and much faster at larger matrices with a better scalability than ?hetrd.

Avoid applying ?herdb for computing eigenvectors due to the two-step reduction, that is, the number of operations needed to apply orthogonal transformations to Z is doubled compared to the traditional one-step reduction. In that case it is better to apply ?hetrd and ?unmtr/?ungtr to obtain tridiagonal form along with the unitary transformation matrix Q.
