Description
The routine uses the Cholesky factorization A=UT*U (real flavors) / A=UH*U (complex flavors) or A=L*LT (real flavors) / A=L*LH (complex flavors) to compute the solution to a real or complex system of linear equations A*X = B, where A is a n-by-n symmetric or Hermitian positive-definite matrix stored in packed format, the columns of matrix B are individual right-hand sides, and the columns of X are the corresponding solutions.
Error bounds on the solution and a condition estimate are also provided.
The routine ?ppsvx performs the following steps:
If fact = 'E', real scaling factors s are computed to equilibrate the system:
diag(s)*A*diag(s)*inv(diag(s))*X = diag(s)*B.
Whether or not the system will be equilibrated depends on the scaling of the matrix A, but if equilibration is used, A is overwritten by diag(s)*A*diag(s) and B by diag(s)*B.
If fact = 'N' or 'E', the Cholesky decomposition is used to factor the matrix A (after equilibration if fact = 'E') as
A = UT*U (real), A = UH*U (complex), if uplo = 'U',
or A = L*LT (real), A = L*LH (complex), if uplo = 'L',
where U is an upper triangular matrix and L is a lower triangular matrix.
If the leading i-by-i principal minor is not positive-definite, 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.
The system of equations is solved for X using the factored form of A.
Iterative refinement is applied to improve the computed solution matrix and calculate error bounds and backward error estimates for it.
If equilibration was used, the matrix X is premultiplied by diag(s) so that it solves the original system before equilibration.
Input Parameters
fact |
CHARACTER*1. Must be 'F', 'N', or 'E'. Specifies whether or not the factored form of the matrix A is supplied on entry, and if not, whether the matrix A should be equilibrated before it is factored. If fact = 'F': on entry, afp contains the factored form of A. If equed = 'Y', the matrix A has been equilibrated with scaling factors given by s. If fact = 'N', the matrix A will be copied to afp and factored. If fact = 'E', the matrix A will be equilibrated if necessary, then copied to afp and factored. |
uplo |
CHARACTER*1. Must be 'U' or 'L'. Indicates whether the upper or lower triangular part of A is stored: If uplo = 'U', the upper triangle of A is stored. If uplo = 'L', the lower triangle of A is stored. |
n |
INTEGER. The order of matrix A; n≥ 0. |
nrhs |
INTEGER. The number of right-hand sides; the number of columns in B; nrhs≥ 0. |
ap, afp, b, work |
REAL for sppsvx DOUBLE PRECISION for dppsvx COMPLEX for cppsvx DOUBLE COMPLEX for zppsvx. Arrays: (size *), afp(size *), b(size ldb by *), work(*). The array ap contains the upper or lower triangle of the original symmetric/Hermitian matrix A in packed storage (see Matrix Storage Schemes). In case when fact = 'F' and equed = 'Y', ap must contain the equilibrated matrix diag(s)*A*diag(s). The array afp is an input argument if fact = 'F' and contains the triangular factor U or L from the Cholesky factorization of A in the same storage format as A. If equed is not 'N', then afp is the factored form of the equilibrated matrix A. The array b contains the matrix B whose columns are the right-hand sides for the systems of equations. work(*) is a workspace array. The dimension of arrays ap and afp must be at least max(1, n(n+1)/2); the second dimension of b must be at least max(1,nrhs); the dimension of work must be at least max(1, 3*n) for real flavors and max(1, 2*n) for complex flavors. |
ldb |
INTEGER. The leading dimension of b; ldb≥ max(1, n). |
equed |
CHARACTER*1. Must be 'N' or 'Y'. equed is an input argument if fact = 'F'. It specifies the form of equilibration that was done: if equed = 'N', no equilibration was done (always true if fact = 'N'); if equed = 'Y', equilibration was done, that is, A has been replaced by diag(s)A*diag(s). |
s |
REAL for single precision flavors DOUBLE PRECISION for double precision flavors. Array, size (n). The array s contains the scale factors for A. This array is an input argument if fact = 'F' only; otherwise it is an output argument. If equed = 'N', s is not accessed. If fact = 'F' and equed = 'Y', each element of s must be positive. |
ldx |
INTEGER. The leading dimension of the output array x; ldx≥ max(1, n). |
iwork |
INTEGER. Workspace array, size at least max(1, n); used in real flavors only. |
rwork |
REAL for cppsvx; DOUBLE PRECISION for zppsvx. Workspace array, size at least max(1, n); used in complex flavors only. |
Output Parameters
x |
REAL for sppsvx DOUBLE PRECISION for dppsvx COMPLEX for cppsvx DOUBLE COMPLEX for zppsvx. Array, size ldx by *. If info = 0 or info = n+1, the array x contains the solution matrix X to the original system of equations. Note that if equed = 'Y', A and B are modified on exit, and the solution to the equilibrated system is inv(diag(s))*X. The second dimension of x must be at least max(1,nrhs). |
ap |
Array ap is not modified on exit if fact = 'F' or 'N', or if fact = 'E'and equed = 'N'. If fact = 'E' and equed = 'Y', ap is overwritten by diag(s)*A*diag(s). |
afp |
If fact = 'N'or 'E', then afp is an output argument and on exit returns the triangular factor U or L from the Cholesky factorization A=UT*U or A=L*LT (real routines), A=UH*U or A=L*LH (complex routines) of the original matrix A (if fact = 'N'), or of the equilibrated matrix A (if fact = 'E'). See the description of ap for the form of the equilibrated matrix. |
b |
Overwritten by diag(s)*B, if equed = 'Y'; not changed if equed = 'N'. |
s |
This array is an output argument if fact≠'F'. See the description of s in Input Arguments section. |
rcond |
REAL for single precision flavors DOUBLE PRECISION for double precision flavors. An estimate of the reciprocal condition number of the matrix A after equilibration (if done). 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 |
REAL for single precision flavors DOUBLE PRECISION for double precision flavors. Array, size at least max(1, nrhs). Contains 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 |
REAL for single precision flavors DOUBLE PRECISION for double precision flavors. Array, size at least max(1, nrhs). Contains the component-wise relative backward error for each solution vector x(j) , that is, the smallest relative change in any element of A or B that makes x(j) an exact solution. |
equed |
If fact≠'F', then equed is an output argument. It specifies the form of equilibration that was done (see the description of equed in Input Arguments section). |
info |
INTEGER. If info=0, the execution is successful. If info = -i, the i-th parameter had an illegal value. If info = i, and i≤n, the leading minor of order i (and therefore the matrix A itself) is not positive-definite, so the factorization could not be completed, and the solution and error bounds could not be computed; rcond = 0 is returned. If info = i, and i = n + 1, then U 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. |
