FL Specification Language:


1 Purpose

f06bpf returns an eigenvalue of a 2×2 real symmetric matrix.

2 Specification

Fortran Interface
Function f06bpf ( a, b, c)
Real (Kind=nag_wp) :: f06bpf
Real (Kind=nag_wp), Intent (In) :: a, b, c
C Header Interface
#include <nag.h>
double  f06bpf_ (const double *a, const double *b, const double *c)
The routine may be called by the names f06bpf or nagf_blas_deig2.

3 Description

f06bpf returns an eigenvalue of the 2×2 real symmetric matrix
( a b b c ) ,  
via the function name. The result is intended for use as a shift in symmetric eigenvalue routines.
The eigenvalue is computed as
c - b f + sign⁡f × 1+f2 ,  
where f = a-c 2b .
This is the eigenvalue nearer to c if a≠c, and is equal to c-b if a=c.

4 References

None.

5 Arguments

1: a – Real (Kind=nag_wp) Input
