Arguments

1:    $\mathbf{order}$ – Nag_OrderTypeInput

On entry: the order argument specifies the two-dimensional storage scheme being used, i.e., row-major ordering or column-major ordering. C language defined storage is specified by $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$. See Section 3.3.1.3 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for a more detailed explanation of the use of this argument.

Constraint: $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$.

2:    $\mathbf{side}$ – Nag_SideTypeInput

On entry: specifies whether $B$ is operated on from the left or the right.

$\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_LeftSide}$

$B$ is pre-multiplied from the left.

$\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_RightSide}$

$B$ is post-multiplied from the right.

Constraint: $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_LeftSide}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_RightSide}$.

3:    $\mathbf{uplo}$ – Nag_UploTypeInput

On entry: specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of $A$ is stored.

$\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Upper}$

The upper triangular part of $A$ is stored.

$\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$

The lower triangular part of $A$ is stored.

Constraint: $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Upper}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$.

4:    $\mathbf{m}$ – IntegerInput

On entry: $m$, the number of rows of the matrices $B$ and $C$; the order of $A$ if $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_LeftSide}$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{m}\ge 0$.

5:    $\mathbf{n}$ – IntegerInput

On entry: $n$, the number of columns of the matrices $B$ and $C$; the order of $A$ if $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_RightSide}$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{n}\ge 0$.

6:    $\mathbf{alpha}$ – ComplexInput

On entry: the scalar $\alpha$.

7:    $\mathbf{a}\left[\mathit{dim}\right]$ – const ComplexInput

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array a must be at least

• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{pda}\times \mathbf{m}\right)$ when $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_LeftSide}$;
• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{pda}\times \mathbf{n}\right)$ when $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_RightSide}$.

On entry: the symmetric matrix $A$; $A$ is $m$ by $m$ if $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_LeftSide}$, or $n$ by $n$ if $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_RightSide}$.

If $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$, $A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{a}\left[\left(j-1\right)\times \mathbf{pda}+i-1\right]$.

If $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$, $A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{a}\left[\left(i-1\right)\times \mathbf{pda}+j-1\right]$.

If $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Upper}$, the upper triangular part of $A$ must be stored and the elements of the array below the diagonal are not referenced.

If $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$, the lower triangular part of $A$ must be stored and the elements of the array above the diagonal are not referenced.

8:    $\mathbf{pda}$ – IntegerInput

On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) of the matrix $A$ in the array a.

Constraints:

• if $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_LeftSide}$, $\mathbf{pda}\ge \max \left(1,\mathbf{m}\right)$;
• if $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_RightSide}$, $\mathbf{pda}\ge \max \left(1,\mathbf{n}\right)$.

9:    $\mathbf{b}\left[\mathit{dim}\right]$ – const ComplexInput

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array b must be at least

• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{pdb}\times \mathbf{n}\right)$ when $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$;
• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{m}\times \mathbf{pdb}\right)$ when $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$.

If $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$, $B_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{b}\left[\left(j-1\right)\times \mathbf{pdb}+i-1\right]$.

If $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$, $B_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{b}\left[\left(i-1\right)\times \mathbf{pdb}+j-1\right]$.

On entry: the $m$ by $n$ matrix $B$.

10:  $\mathbf{pdb}$ – IntegerInput

On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) in the array b.
