5 Arguments

1: $\mathbf{order}$ – Nag_OrderType Input

On entry: the order argument specifies the two-dimensional storage scheme being used, i.e., row-major ordering or column-major ordering. C language defined storage is specified by $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$. See Section 3.1.3 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for a more detailed explanation of the use of this argument.

Constraint: $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$.

2: $\mathbf{uplo}$ – Nag_UploType Input

On entry: specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of $A$ is stored.

$\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Upper}$

The upper triangular part of $A$ is stored.

$\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$

The lower triangular part of $A$ is stored.

Constraint: $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Upper}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$.

3: $\mathbf{n}$ – Integer Input

On entry: $n$, the order of the matrix $A$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{n}\ge 0$.

4: $\mathbf{k}$ – Integer Input

On entry: $k$, the number of subdiagonals or superdiagonals of the matrix $A$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{k}\ge 0$.

5: $\mathbf{alpha}$ – double Input

On entry: the scalar $\alpha$.

6: $\mathbf{ab}\left[\mathit{dim}\right]$ – const double Input

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array ab must be at least $\max (1,\mathbf{pdab}\times \mathbf{n})$.

On entry: the $n\times n$ symmetric band matrix $A$.

This is stored as a notional two-dimensional array with row elements or column elements stored contiguously. The storage of elements of $A_{ij}$, depends on the order and uplo arguments as follows:

if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$ and $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Upper}$,

$A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{ab}\left[k+i-j+(j-1)\times \mathbf{pdab}\right]$, for $j=1,\dots ,n$ and $i=\max (1,j-k),\dots ,j$;

if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$ and $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$,

$A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{ab}\left[i-j+(j-1)\times \mathbf{pdab}\right]$, for $j=1,\dots ,n$ and $i=j,\dots ,\min (n,j+k)$;

if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$ and $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Upper}$,

$A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{ab}\left[j-i+(i-1)\times \mathbf{pdab}\right]$, for $i=1,\dots ,n$ and $j=i,\dots ,\min (n,i+k)$;

if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$ and $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$,

$A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{ab}\left[k+j-i+(i-1)\times \mathbf{pdab}\right]$, for $i=1,\dots ,n$ and $j=\max (1,i-k),\dots ,i$.

7: $\mathbf{pdab}$ – Integer Input

On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) of the matrix $A$ in the array ab.

Constraint: $\mathbf{pdab}\ge \mathbf{k}+1$.

8: $\mathbf{x}\left[\mathit{dim}\right]$ – const double Input

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array x must be at least $\max (1,1+(\mathbf{n}-1)\left|\mathbf{incx}\right|)$.

On entry: the $n$-element vector $x$.

If $\mathbf{incx}>0$, $x_{\mathit{i}}$ must be stored in $\mathbf{x}\left[(\mathit{i}-1)\times \mathbf{incx}\right]$, for $\mathit{i}=1,2,\dots ,\mathbf{n}$.

If $\mathbf{incx}<0$, $x_{\mathit{i}}$ must be stored in $\mathbf{x}\left[(\mathbf{n}-\mathit{i})\times \left|\mathbf{incx}\right|\right]$, for $\mathit{i}=1,2,\dots ,\mathbf{n}$.

Intermediate elements of x are not referenced. If $\mathbf{n}=0$, x is not referenced and may be NULL.

9: $\mathbf{incx}$ – Integer Input

On entry: the increment in the subscripts of x between successive elements of $x$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{incx}\ne 0$.

10: $\mathbf{beta}$ – double Input

On entry: the scalar $\beta$.

11: $\mathbf{y}\left[\mathit{dim}\right]$ – double Input/Output

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array y must be at least $\max (1,1+(\mathbf{n}-1)\left|\mathbf{incy}\right|)$.

On entry: the vector $y$. See x for details of storage.

If $\mathbf{beta}=0$, y need not be set.

On exit: the updated vector $y$.

12: $\mathbf{incy}$ – Integer Input

On entry: the increment in the subscripts of y between successive elements of $y$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{incy}\ne 0$.

13: $\mathbf{fail}$ – NagError * Input/Output

The NAG error argument (see Section 7 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface).
