Description
For a matrix
with no eigenvalues on the closed negative real line,
(
) can be defined as
where
is the principal logarithm of
(the unique logarithm whose spectrum lies in the strip
). If
is nonsingular but has negative real eigenvalues, the principal logarithm is not defined, but a non-principal
th power can be defined by using a non-principal logarithm.
The Fréchet derivative of the matrix
th power of
is the unique linear mapping
such that for any matrix
The derivative describes the first-order effect of perturbations in on the matrix power .
f01kfc uses the algorithms of
Higham and Lin (2011) and
Higham and Lin (2013) to compute
and
. The real number
is expressed as
where
and
. Then
. The integer power
is found using a combination of binary powering and, if necessary, matrix inversion. The fractional power
is computed using a Schur decomposition, a Padé approximant and the scaling and squaring method. The Padé approximant is differentiated in order to obtain the Fréchet derivative of
and
is then computed using a combination of the chain rule and the product rule for Fréchet derivatives.

Accuracy
For a normal matrix
(for which
), the Schur decomposition is diagonal and the computation of the fractional part of the matrix power reduces to evaluating powers of the eigenvalues of
and then constructing
using the Schur vectors. This should give a very accurate result. In general, however, no error bounds are available for the algorithm. See
Higham and Lin (2011) and
Higham and Lin (2013) for details and further discussion.
If the condition number of the matrix power is required then
f01kec should be used.

Parallelism and Performance
f01kfc is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
f01kfc 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 function. Please also consult the
Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.
The complex allocatable memory required by the algorithm is approximately .
The cost of the algorithm is
floating-point operations; see
Higham and Lin (2011) and
Higham and Lin (2013).
If the matrix
th power alone is required, without the Fréchet derivative, then
f01fqc should be used. If the condition number of the matrix power is required then
f01kec should be used. The real analogue of this function is
f01jfc.
