f11bff (real_gen_basic_diag)

f11bff is the third in a suite of three routines for the iterative solution of a real general (nonsymmetric) system of simultaneous linear equations (see Golub and Van Loan (1996)). f11bff returns information about the computations during an iteration and/or after this has been completed. The first routine of the suite, f11bdf, is a setup routine; the second routine, f11bef, is the iterative solver itself.

These three routines are suitable for the solution of large sparse general (nonsymmetric) systems of equations.

2 Specification

Fortran Interface

Subroutine f11bff (

itn, stplhs, stprhs, anorm, sigmax, work, lwork, ifail)

Integer, Intent (In)	::	lwork
Integer, Intent (Inout)	::	ifail
Integer, Intent (Out)	::	itn
Real (Kind=nag_wp), Intent (In)	::	work(lwork)
Real (Kind=nag_wp), Intent (Out)	::	stplhs, stprhs, anorm, sigmax

C Header Interface

#include <nag.h>

void	f11bff_ (Integer itn, double stplhs, double stprhs, double anorm, double sigmax, const double work[], const Integer lwork, Integer *ifail)

The routine may be called by the names f11bff or nagf_sparse_real_gen_basic_diag.

3 Description

f11bff returns information about the solution process. It can be called either during a monitoring step of f11bef or after f11bef has completed its tasks. Calling f11bff at any other time will result in an error condition being raised.

For further information you should read the documentation for f11bdf and f11bef.

5 Arguments

1: $itn$ – Integer Output: On exit: the number of iterations carried out by f11bef.
2: $stplhs$ – Real (Kind=nag_wp) Output: On exit: the current value of the left-hand side of the termination criterion used by f11bef.
3: $stprhs$ – Real (Kind=nag_wp) Output: On exit: the current value of the right-hand side of the termination criterion used by f11bef.
4: $anorm$ – Real (Kind=nag_wp) Output: On exit: if $iterm = 1$ in the previous call to f11bdf, then anorm contains ${‖ A ‖}_{p}$ , where $p = 1$ , $2$ or $\infty$ , either supplied or, in the case of $1$ or $\infty$ , estimated by f11bef; otherwise $anorm = 0.0$ .
5: $sigmax$ – Real (Kind=nag_wp) Output: On exit: if $iterm = 2$ in the previous call to f11bdf, the current estimate of the largest singular value $σ_{1} (\bar{A})$ of the preconditioned iteration matrix, either when it has been supplied to f11bdf or it has been estimated by f11bef (see also Sections 3 and 5 in f11bdf); otherwise, $sigmax = 0.0$ is returned.
6: $work (lwork)$ – Real (Kind=nag_wp) array Communication Array: On entry: the array work as returned by f11bef (see also Sections 3 and 5 in f11bef).
7: $lwork$ – Integer Input: On entry: the dimension of the array work as declared in the (sub)program from which f11bff is called (see also Section 5 in f11bdf).

Constraint: $lwork \geq 100$ .

Note: although the minimum value of lwork ensures the correct functioning of f11bff, a larger value is required by the iterative solver f11bef (see also Section 5 in f11bdf).
8: $ifail$ – Integer Input/Output: On entry: ifail must be set to $0$ , $−1$ or $1$ to set behaviour on detection of an error; these values have no effect when no error is detected.
A value of $0$ causes the printing of an error message and program execution will be halted; otherwise program execution continues. A value of $−1$ means that an error message is printed while a value of $1$ means that it is not.

If halting is not appropriate, the value $−1$ or $1$ is recommended. If message printing is undesirable, then the value $1$ is recommended. Otherwise, the value $0$ is recommended. When the value $- 1$ or $1$ is used it is essential to test the value of ifail on exit.

On exit: $ifail = 0$ unless the routine detects an error or a warning has been flagged (see Section 6).

6 Error Indicators and Warnings

If on entry

ifail = 0

−1

, explanatory error messages are output on the current error message unit (as defined by x04aaf).

Errors or warnings detected by the routine:

$ifail = 1$: f11bff has been called out of sequence.

$ifail = - 7$: On entry, $lwork = ⟨ value ⟩$ .
Constraint: $lwork \geq 100$ .

$ifail = - 99$: An unexpected error has been triggered by this routine. Please contact NAG.

$ifail = - 399$: Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.
