Parameters

Compulsory Input Parameters

1:     $\mathrm{side}$ – string (length ≥ 1)

Indicates how $Q$ or $Q^{\mathrm{T}}$ is to be applied to $C$.

$\mathbf{side}=\text{'L'}$

$Q$ or $Q^{\mathrm{T}}$ is applied to $C$ from the left.

$\mathbf{side}=\text{'R'}$

$Q$ or $Q^{\mathrm{T}}$ is applied to $C$ from the right.

Constraint: $\mathbf{side}=\text{'L'}$ or $\text{'R'}$.

2:     $\mathrm{trans}$ – string (length ≥ 1)

Indicates whether $Q$ or $Q^{\mathrm{T}}$ is to be applied to $C$.

$\mathbf{trans}=\text{'N'}$

$Q$ is applied to $C$.

$\mathbf{trans}=\text{'T'}$

$Q^{\mathrm{T}}$ is applied to $C$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{trans}=\text{'N'}$ or $\text{'T'}$.

3:     $\mathrm{v}\left(\mathit{ldv},:\right)$ – double array

The first dimension, $\mathit{ldv}$, of the array v must satisfy

• if $\mathbf{side}=\text{'L'}$, $\mathit{ldv}\ge \max \left(1,\mathbf{m}\right)$;
• if $\mathbf{side}=\text{'R'}$, $\mathit{ldv}\ge \max \left(1,\mathbf{n}\right)$.

The second dimension of the array v must be at least $\max \left(1,\mathbf{k}\right)$.

Details of the vectors which define the elementary reflectors, as returned by nag_lapack_dgeqrt (f08ab) in the first $k$ columns of its array argument a.

4:     $\mathrm{t}\left(\mathit{ldt},:\right)$ – double array

The first dimension of the array t must be at least $\mathbf{nb}$.

The second dimension of the array t must be at least $\max \left(1,\mathbf{k}\right)$.

Further details of the orthogonal matrix $Q$ as returned by nag_lapack_dgeqrt (f08ab). The number of blocks is $b=⌈\frac{k}{\mathbf{nb}}⌉$, where $k=\min \left(m,n\right)$ and each block is of order nb except for the last block, which is of order $k-\left(b-1\right)\times \mathbf{nb}$. For the $b$ blocks the upper triangular block reflector factors ${\mathit{T}}_1,{\mathit{T}}_2,\dots ,{\mathit{T}}_b$ are stored in the $\mathbf{nb}$ by $n$ matrix $T$ as $\mathit{T}=\left[{\mathit{T}}_1\left|{\mathit{T}}_2\right|\dots |{\mathit{T}}_b\right]$.

5:     $\mathrm{c}\left(\mathit{ldc},:\right)$ – double array

The first dimension of the array c must be at least $\max \left(1,\mathbf{m}\right)$.

The second dimension of the array c must be at least $\max \left(1,\mathbf{n}\right)$.

The $m$ by $n$ matrix $C$.

Optional Input Parameters

1:     $\mathrm{m}$ – int64int32nag_int scalar

Default: the first dimension of the array c.

$m$, the number of rows of the matrix $C$.

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

2:     $\mathrm{n}$ – int64int32nag_int scalar

Default: the second dimension of the array c.

$n$, the number of columns of the matrix $C$.

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

3:     $\mathrm{k}$ – int64int32nag_int scalar

Default: the second dimension of the arrays v, t.

$k$, the number of elementary reflectors whose product defines the matrix $Q$. Usually $\mathbf{k}=\min \left(m_A,n_A\right)$ where $m_A$, $n_A$ are the dimensions of the matrix $A$ supplied in a previous call to nag_lapack_dgeqrt (f08ab).

Constraints:

• if $\mathbf{side}=\text{'L'}$, $\mathbf{m}\ge \mathbf{k}\ge 0$;
• if $\mathbf{side}=\text{'R'}$, $\mathbf{n}\ge \mathbf{k}\ge 0$.

4:     $\mathrm{nb}$ – int64int32nag_int scalar

Default: the first dimension of the array t.

The block size used in the $QR$ factorization performed in a previous call to nag_lapack_dgeqrt (f08ab); this value must remain unchanged from that call.

Constraints:

• $\mathbf{nb}\ge 1$;
• if $\mathbf{k}>0$, $\mathbf{nb}\le \mathbf{k}$.

Output Parameters

1:     $\mathrm{c}\left(\mathit{ldc},:\right)$ – double array

The first dimension of the array c will be $\max \left(1,\mathbf{m}\right)$.

The second dimension of the array c will be $\max \left(1,\mathbf{n}\right)$.

c stores $QC$ or $Q^{\mathrm{T}}C$ or $CQ$ or $C{Q}^{\mathrm{T}}$ as specified by side and trans.

2:     $\mathrm{info}$ – int64int32nag_int scalar

$\mathbf{info}=0$ unless the function detects an error (see Error Indicators and Warnings).

Error Indicators and Warnings

   $\mathbf{info}<0$

If $\mathbf{info}=-i$, argument $i$ had an illegal value. An explanatory message is output, and execution of the program is terminated.
