NAG Toolbox: nag_lapack_dpbequ (f07hf)
Purpose
nag_lapack_dpbequ (f07hf) computes a diagonal scaling matrix intended to equilibrate a real by symmetric positive definite band matrix , with bandwidth , and reduce its condition number.
Syntax
Description
nag_lapack_dpbequ (f07hf) computes a diagonal scaling matrix
chosen so that
This means that the matrix
given by
has diagonal elements equal to unity. This in turn means that the condition number of
,
, is within a factor
of the matrix of smallest possible condition number over all possible choices of diagonal scalings (see Corollary 7.6 of
Higham (2002)).

Output Parameters
- 1:
– double array
-
If
,
s contains the diagonal elements of the scaling matrix
.
- 2:
– double scalar
-
If
,
scond contains the ratio of the smallest value of
s to the largest value of
s. If
and
amax is neither too large nor too small, it is not worth scaling by
.
- 3:
– double scalar
-
. If
amax is very close to overflow or underflow, the matrix
should be scaled.
- 4:
– int64int32nag_int scalar
unless the function detects an error (see
Error Indicators and Warnings).
Error Indicators and Warnings
-
If , argument had an illegal value. An explanatory message is output, and execution of the program is terminated.
-
-
The th diagonal element of is not positive
(and hence cannot be positive definite).
Accuracy
The computed scale factors will be close to the exact scale factors.
