Description

f08jlf (dstegr) computes selected eigenvalues and, optionally, the corresponding eigenvectors, of a real symmetric tridiagonal matrix

T

. That is, the routine computes the (partial) spectral factorization of

T

given by

Z Λ Z^{T},

where

Λ

is a diagonal matrix whose diagonal elements are the selected eigenvalues,

λ_{i}

, of

T

and

Z

is an orthogonal matrix whose columns are the corresponding eigenvectors,

z_{i}

, of

T

. Thus

T z_{i} = λ_{i} z_{i}, i = 1, 2, \dots, m

where

m

is the number of selected eigenvalues computed.

The routine may also be used to compute selected eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a real symmetric matrix

A

which has been reduced to tridiagonal form

T

(Q Z) Λ {(Q Z)}^{T}, where ​ Q ​ is orthogonal.

In this case, the matrix

Q

must be explicitly applied to the output matrix

Z

. The routines which must be called to perform the reduction to tridiagonal form and apply

Q

are:

full matrix	f08fef (dsytrd) and f08fgf (dormtr)
full matrix, packed storage	f08gef (dsptrd) and f08ggf (dopmtr)
band matrix	f08hef (dsbtrd) with $vect ='V'$ and f06yaf (dgemm).

This routine uses the dqds and the Relatively Robust Representation algorithms to compute the eigenvalues and eigenvectors respectively; see for example Parlett and Dhillon (2000) and Dhillon and Parlett (2004) for further details. f08jlf (dstegr) can usually compute all the eigenvalues and eigenvectors in

O (n^{2})

floating-point operations and so, for large matrices, is often considerably faster than the other symmetric tridiagonal routines in this chapter when all the eigenvectors are required, particularly so compared to those routines that are based on the

Q R

algorithm.

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.

$info = 1$: The $dqds$ algorithm failed to converge.

$info = 2$: Inverse iteration failed to converge.

Accuracy

See the description for abstol. See also Section 4.7 of Anderson et al. (1999) and Barlow and Demmel (1990) for further details.

Parallelism and Performance

f08jlf (dstegr) is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.

f08jlf (dstegr) 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

The total number of floating-point operations required to compute all the eigenvalues and eigenvectors is approximately proportional to

n^{2}

The complex analogue of this routine is f08jyf (zstegr).

10

Example

This example finds all the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the symmetric tridiagonal matrix

T = (\begin{array}{r} 1.0 & 1.0 & 0 & 0 \\ 1.0 & 4.0 & 2.0 & 0 \\ 0 & 2.0 & 9.0 & 3.0 \\ 0 & 0 & 3.0 & 16.0 \end{array}) .

abstol is set to zero so that the default tolerance of

n ε {‖T‖}_{1}

is used.
