The routine may be called by the names f08jyf, nagf_lapackeig_zstegr or its LAPACK name zstegr.
3Description
f08jyf computes selected eigenvalues and, optionally, the corresponding eigenvectors, of a real symmetric tridiagonal matrix . That is, the routine computes the (partial) spectral factorization of given by
where is a diagonal matrix whose diagonal elements are the selected eigenvalues, , of and is an orthogonal matrix whose columns are the corresponding eigenvectors, , of . Thus
where is the number of selected eigenvectors computed.
The routine stores the real orthogonal matrix in a complex array, so that it may also be used to compute selected eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenvectors of a complex Hermitian matrix which has been reduced to tridiagonal form :
In this case, the matrix must be explicitly applied to the output matrix . The routines which must be called to perform the reduction to tridiagonal form and apply are:
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. f08jyf can usually compute all the eigenvalues and eigenvectors in 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 algorithm.

f08jyf is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
f08jyf 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.
