Description

The right eigenvector

v_{j}

A

satisfies

A v_{j} = λ_{j} v_{j}

where

λ_{j}

is the

j

th eigenvalue of

A

. The left eigenvector

u_{j}

A

satisfies

u_{j}^{H} A = λ_{j} u_{j}^{H}

where

u_{j}^{H}

denotes the conjugate transpose of

u_{j}

Balancing a matrix means permuting the rows and columns to make it more nearly upper triangular, and applying a diagonal similarity transformation

D A D^{- 1}

, where

D

is a diagonal matrix, with the aim of making its rows and columns closer in norm and the condition numbers of its eigenvalues and eigenvectors smaller. The computed reciprocal condition numbers correspond to the balanced matrix. Permuting rows and columns will not change the condition numbers (in exact arithmetic) but diagonal scaling will. For further explanation of balancing, see Section 4.8.1.2 of Anderson et al. (1999).

Following the optional balancing, the matrix

A

is first reduced to upper Hessenberg form by means of unitary similarity transformations, and the

Q R

algorithm is then used to further reduce the matrix to upper triangular Schur form,

T

, from which the eigenvalues are computed. Optionally, the eigenvectors of

T

are also computed and backtransformed to those of

A

n \times nb

nb

6

Error Indicators and Warnings

$info < 0$: If $info = - i$ , argument $i$ had an illegal value. An explanatory message is output, and execution of the program is terminated.

$info > 0$: The $Q R$ algorithm failed to compute all the eigenvalues, and no eigenvectors or condition numbers have been computed; elements $1$ to $ilo - 1$ and $〈value〉$ to n of w contain eigenvalues which have converged.

7

Accuracy

The computed eigenvalues and eigenvectors are exact for a nearby matrix

(A + E)

, where

{‖E‖}_{2} = O (ε) {‖A‖}_{2},

and

ε

is the machine precision. See Section 4.8 of Anderson et al. (1999) for further details.

Parallelism and Performance

f08npf (zgeevx) is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.

f08npf (zgeevx) makes calls to BLAS and/or LAPACK routines, which may be threaded within the vendor library used by this implementation. Consult the documentation for the vendor library for further information.

Please consult the X06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this routine. Please also consult the Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.

Further Comments

Each eigenvector is normalized to have Euclidean norm equal to unity and the element of largest absolute value real.

The total number of floating-point operations is proportional to

n^{3}

The real analogue of this routine is f08nbf (dgeevx).

Example

This example finds all the eigenvalues and right eigenvectors of the matrix

A = (\begin{array}{r} - 3.97 - 5.04 i & - 4.11 + 3.70 i & - 0.34 + 1.01 i & 1.29 - 0.86 i \\ 0.34 - 1.50 i & 1.52 - 0.43 i & 1.88 - 5.38 i & 3.36 + 0.65 i \\ 3.31 - 3.85 i & 2.50 + 3.45 i & 0.88 - 1.08 i & 0.64 - 1.48 i \\ - 1.10 + 0.82 i & 1.81 - 1.59 i & 3.25 + 1.33 i & 1.57 - 3.44 i \end{array}),

together with estimates of the condition number and forward error bounds for each eigenvalue and eigenvector. The option to balance the matrix is used. In order to compute the condition numbers of the eigenvalues, the left eigenvectors also have to be computed, but they are not printed out in this example.

Note that the block size (NB) of

64

assumed in this example is not realistic for such a small problem, but should be suitable for large problems.
