Purpose

nag_lapack_zgelqf (f08av) computes the LQ factorization of a complex m by n matrix.

Syntax

[a, tau, info] = f08av(a, 'm', m, 'n', n)
[a, tau, info] = nag_lapack_zgelqf(a, 'm', m, 'n', n)

Description

nag_lapack_zgelqf (f08av) forms the LQ factorization of an arbitrary rectangular complex m by n matrix. No pivoting is performed.
If mn, the factorization is given by:
A = L 0 Q  
where L is an m by m lower triangular matrix (with real diagonal elements) and Q is an n by n unitary matrix. It is sometimes more convenient to write the factorization as
A = L 0 Q1 Q2  
which reduces to
A = LQ1 ,  
where Q1 consists of the first m rows of Q, and Q2 the remaining n-m rows.
If m>n, L is trapezoidal, and the factorization can be written
A = L1 L2 Q  
where L1 is lower triangular and L2 is rectangular.
The LQ factorization of A is essentially the same as the QR factorization of AH, since
A = L 0 QAH= QH LH 0 .  
The matrix Q is not formed explicitly but is represented as a product of minm,n elementary reflectors (see the F08 Chapter Introduction for details). Functions are provided to work with Q in this representation (see Further Comments).
Note also that for any k<m, the information returned in the first k rows of the array a represents an LQ factorization of the first k rows of the original matrix A.

References

None.

Parameters

Compulsory Input Parameters

1:     alda: – complex array
The first dimension of the array a must be at least max1,m.
The second dimension of the array a must be at least max1,n.
The m by n matrix A.

Optional Input Parameters

1:     m int64int32nag_int scalar
Default: the first dimension of the array a.
m, the number of rows of the matrix A.
Constraint: m0.
2:     n int64int32nag_int scalar
Default: the second dimension of the array a.
n, the number of columns of the matrix A.
Constraint: n0.

Output Parameters

1:     alda: – complex array
The first dimension of the array a will be max1,m.
The second dimension of the array a will be max1,n.
If mn, the elements above the diagonal store details of the unitary matrix Q and the lower triangle stores the corresponding elements of the m by m lower triangular matrix L.
If m>n, the strictly upper triangular part stores details of the unitary matrix Q and the remaining elements store the corresponding elements of the m by n lower trapezoidal matrix L.
The diagonal elements of L are real.
2:     tau: – complex array
The dimension of the array tau will be max1,minm,n
Further details of the unitary matrix Q.
3:     info int64int32nag_int scalar
info=0 unless the function detects an error (see Error Indicators and Warnings).

Error Indicators and Warnings

   info=-i
If info=-i, parameter i had an illegal value on entry. The parameters are numbered as follows:
1: m, 2: n, 3: a, 4: lda, 5: tau, 6: work, 7: lwork, 8: info.
It is possible that info refers to a parameter that is omitted from the MATLAB interface. This usually indicates that an error in one of the other input parameters has caused an incorrect value to be inferred.

Accuracy

The computed factorization is the exact factorization of a nearby matrix A+E, where
E2 = Oε A2 ,  
and ε is the machine precision.

Further Comments

The total number of real floating-point operations is approximately 83 m2 3n-m  if mn or 83 n2 3m-n  if m>n.
To form the unitary matrix Q nag_lapack_zgelqf (f08av) may be followed by a call to nag_lapack_zunglq (f08aw):
[a, info] = f08aw(a(1:n,:), tau);
but note that the first dimension of the array a, specified by the argument lda, must be at least n, which may be larger than was required by nag_lapack_zgelqf (f08av).
When mn, it is often only the first m rows of Q that are required, and they may be formed by the call:
[a, info] = f08aw(a, tau, 'k', m);
To apply Q to an arbitrary complex rectangular matrix C, nag_lapack_zgelqf (f08av) may be followed by a call to nag_lapack_zunmlq (f08ax). For example,
[c, info] = f08ax('Left', 'Conjugate Transpose', a(:,1:p), tau, c);
forms the matrix product C=QHC, where C is m by p.
The real analogue of this function is nag_lapack_dgelqf (f08ah).
