pftrf - pftrf: triangular factor


subroutine cpftrf (transr, uplo, n, a, info)
CPFTRF subroutine dpftrf (transr, uplo, n, a, 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.

44 45 40 41 42 43 44
55 50 51 52 53 54 55
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'.
