ZPFTRS solves a system of linear equations A*X = B with a Hermitian


 positive definite matrix A using the Cholesky factorization


 A = U**H*U or A = L*L**H computed by ZPFTRF.

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.

NRHS

          NRHS is INTEGER


          The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns


          of the matrix B.  NRHS >= 0.

A

          A is COMPLEX*16 array, dimension ( N*(N+1)/2 );


          The triangular factor U or L from the Cholesky factorization


          of RFP A = U**H*U or RFP A = L*L**H, as computed by ZPFTRF.


          See note below for more details about RFP A.

B

          B is COMPLEX*16 array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)


          On entry, the right hand side matrix B.


          On exit, the solution matrix X.

LDB

          LDB is INTEGER


          The leading dimension of the array B.  LDB >= max(1,N).

INFO

          INFO is INTEGER


          = 0:  successful exit


          < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value

  We first consider Standard Packed Format when N is even.


  We give an example where N = 6.


      AP is Upper             AP is Lower

  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'.

  Now let TRANSR = 'C'. RFP A in both UPLO cases is just the conjugate-


  transpose of RFP A above. One therefore gets:

  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'.
