1  Purpose

nag_zptcon (f07juc) computes the reciprocal condition number of a complex n  by n  Hermitian positive definite tridiagonal matrix A , using the LDLH  factorization returned by nag_zpttrf (f07jrc).

2  Specification

#include <nag.h>
#include <nagf07.h>
void  nag_zptcon (Integer n, const double d[], const Complex e[], double anorm, double *rcond, NagError *fail)

3  Description

nag_zptcon (f07juc) should be preceded by a call to nag_zpttrf (f07jrc), which computes a modified Cholesky factorization of the matrix A  as
A=LDLH ,  
where L  is a unit lower bidiagonal matrix and D  is a diagonal matrix, with positive diagonal elements. nag_zptcon (f07juc) then utilizes the factorization to compute A-11  by a direct method, from which the reciprocal of the condition number of A , 1/κA  is computed as
1/κ1A=1 / A1 A-11 .  
1/κA  is returned, rather than κA , since when A  is singular κA  is infinite.

5  Arguments

1:     n IntegerInput
On entry: n, the order of the matrix A.
Constraint: n0.
2:     d[dim] const doubleInput
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array d must be at least max1,n.
On entry: must contain the n diagonal elements of the diagonal matrix D from the LDLH factorization of A.
3:     e[dim] const ComplexInput
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array e must be at least max1,n-1.
On entry: must contain the n-1 subdiagonal elements of the unit lower bidiagonal matrix L. (e can also be regarded as the superdiagonal of the unit upper bidiagonal matrix U from the UHDU factorization of A.)
4:     anorm doubleInput
On entry: the 1-norm of the original matrix A, which may be computed as shown in Section 10. anorm must be computed either before calling nag_zpttrf (f07jrc) or else from a copy of the original matrix A.
Constraint: anorm0.0.
5:     rcond double *Output
On exit: the reciprocal condition number, 1/κ1A=1/A1A-11.
6:     fail NagError *Input/Output
The NAG error argument (see Section 2.7 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation).

6  Error Indicators and Warnings

NE_ALLOC_FAIL
Dynamic memory allocation failed.

NE_BAD_PARAM
On entry, argument value had an illegal value.
NE_INT
On entry, n=value.
Constraint: n0.
NE_INTERNAL_ERROR
An internal error has occurred in this function. Check the function call and any array sizes. If the call is correct then please contact NAG for assistance.
An unexpected error has been triggered by this function. Please contact NAG.
See Section 2.7.6 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for further information.
NE_NO_LICENCE
Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.
See Section 2.7.5 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for further information.
NE_REAL
On entry, anorm=value.
Constraint: anorm0.0.

7  Accuracy

The computed condition number will be the exact condition number for a closely neighbouring matrix.

8  Parallelism and Performance

nag_zptcon (f07juc) is not threaded in any implementation.

9  Further Comments

The condition number estimation requires On  floating-point operations.
See Section 15.6 of Higham (2002) for further details on computing the condition number of tridiagonal matrices.
The real analogue of this function is nag_dptcon (f07jgc).
