1 Purpose

f11ja is the AD Library version of the primal routine f11jaf. Based (in the C++ interface) on overload resolution, f11ja can be used for primal, tangent and adjoint evaluation. It supports tangents and adjoints of first order.

2 Specification

Fortran Interface
Subroutine f11ja_AD_f ( n, nnz, a, la, irow, icol, lfill, dtol, mic, dscale, pstrat, ipiv, istr, nnzc, npivm, iwork, liwork, ifail)
Integer, Intent (In) :: n, nnz, la, lfill, liwork
Integer, Intent (Inout) :: irow(la), icol(la), ipiv(n), ifail
Integer, Intent (Out) :: istr(n+1), nnzc, npivm, iwork(liwork)
ADTYPE, Intent (In) :: dtol, dscale
ADTYPE, Intent (Inout) :: a(la)
Character (1), Intent (In) :: mic, pstrat
Type (c_ptr), Intent (Inout) :: ad_handle
Corresponding to the overloaded C++ function, the Fortran interface provides five routines with names reflecting the type used for active real arguments. The actual subroutine and type names are formed by replacing AD and ADTYPE in the above as follows:
when ADTYPE is Real(kind=nag_wp) then AD is p0w
when ADTYPE is Type(nagad_a1w_w_rtype) then AD is a1w
when ADTYPE is Type(nagad_t1w_w_rtype) then AD is t1w
C++ Interface
#include <dco.hpp>
#include <nagad.h>
namespace nag {
namespace ad {
void f11ja ( handle_t &ad_handle, const Integer &n, const Integer &nnz, ADTYPE a[], const Integer &la, Integer irow[], Integer icol[], const Integer &lfill, const ADTYPE &dtol, const char *mic, const ADTYPE &dscale, const char *pstrat, Integer ipiv[], Integer istr[], Integer &nnzc, Integer &npivm, Integer iwork[], const Integer &liwork, Integer &ifail)
}
}
The function is overloaded on ADTYPE which represents the type of active arguments. ADTYPE may be any of the following types:
double,
dco::ga1s<double>::type,
dco::gt1s<double>::type
Note: this function can be used with AD tools other than dco/c++. For details, please contact NAG.

3 Description

f11ja is the AD Library version of the primal routine f11jaf.
f11jaf computes an incomplete Cholesky factorization of a real sparse symmetric matrix, represented in symmetric coordinate storage format. This factorization may be used as a preconditioner in combination with f11jcf. For further information see Section 3 in the documentation for f11jaf.
