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:    $\mathbf{uplo}$ – Nag_UploTypeInput

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

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

The upper triangular part of $C$ is stored.

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

The lower triangular part of $C$ is stored.

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

3:    $\mathbf{trans}$ – Nag_TransTypeInput

On entry: specifies the operation to be performed.

$\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$

$C\leftarrow \alpha A{A}^{\mathrm{H}}+\beta C$.

$\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_ConjTrans}$

$C\leftarrow \alpha A^{\mathrm{H}}A+\beta C$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_ConjTrans}$.

4:    $\mathbf{n}$ – IntegerInput

On entry: $n$, the order of the matrix $C$; the number of rows of $A$ if $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$, or the number of columns of $A$ otherwise.

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

5:    $\mathbf{k}$ – IntegerInput

On entry: $k$, the number of columns of $A$ if $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$, or the number of rows of $A$ otherwise.

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

6:    $\mathbf{alpha}$ – doubleInput

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

• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{pda}\times \mathbf{k}\right)$ when $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$ and $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$;
• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{n}\times \mathbf{pda}\right)$ when $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$ and $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$;
• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{pda}\times \mathbf{n}\right)$ when $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_ConjTrans}$ and $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$;
• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{k}\times \mathbf{pda}\right)$ when $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_ConjTrans}$ and $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$.

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 $\mathbf{a}\left[\left(i-1\right)\times \mathbf{pda}+j-1\right]$.

On entry: the matrix $A$; $A$ is $n$ by $k$ if $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$, or $k$ by $n$ otherwise.

8:    $\mathbf{pda}$ – IntegerInput

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

Constraints:

• if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$,
  • if $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$, $\mathbf{pda}\ge \max \left(1,\mathbf{n}\right)$;
  • if $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_ConjTrans}$, $\mathbf{pda}\ge \max \left(1,\mathbf{k}\right)$;
• if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$,
  • if $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$, $\mathbf{pda}\ge \max \left(1,\mathbf{k}\right)$;
  • if $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_ConjTrans}$, $\mathbf{pda}\ge \max \left(1,\mathbf{n}\right)$.

9:    $\mathbf{beta}$ – doubleInput

On entry: the scalar $\beta$.

10:  $\mathbf{c}\left[\mathit{dim}\right]$ – ComplexInput/Output

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array c must be at least $\max \left(1,\mathbf{pdc}\times \mathbf{n}\right)$.

On entry: the $n$ by $n$ Hermitian matrix $C$.

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

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

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

On exit: the updated matrix $C$. The imaginary parts of the diagonal elements are set to zero.

11:  $\mathbf{pdc}$ – IntegerInput

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

Constraint: $\mathbf{pdc}\ge \max \left(1,\mathbf{n}\right)$.

12:  $\mathbf{fail}$ – NagError *Input/Output

The NAG error argument (see Section 3.7 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation).
