3Description
The right eigenvector of satisfies
where is the th eigenvalue of . The left eigenvector of satisfies
where denotes the conjugate transpose of .
The matrix is first reduced to upper Hessenberg form by means of orthogonal similarity transformations, and the algorithm is then used to further reduce the matrix to upper quasi-triangular Schur form, , with and blocks on the main diagonal. The eigenvalues are computed from , the blocks corresponding to complex conjugate pairs and, optionally, the eigenvectors of are computed and backtransformed to the eigenvectors of .

6Error Indicators and Warnings
If , argument had an illegal value. An explanatory message is output, and execution of the program is terminated.
The algorithm failed to compute all the eigenvalues, and no eigenvectors have been computed; elements to n of wr and wi contain eigenvalues which have converged.
7Accuracy
The computed eigenvalues and eigenvectors are exact for a nearby matrix , where

8Parallelism and Performance
Background information to multithreading can be found in the Multithreading documentation.
f08naf is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
f08naf 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 routine. Please also consult the Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.
