f07muc estimates the condition number of a complex Hermitian indefinite matrix
, where
has been factorized by
f07mrc.
f07muc estimates the condition number (in the
-norm) of a complex Hermitian indefinite matrix
:
Since
is Hermitian,
.
The function should be preceded by a call to
f16ucc to compute
and a call to
f07mrc to compute the Bunch–Kaufman factorization of
. The function then uses Higham's implementation of Hager's method (see
Higham (1988)) to estimate
.

The computed estimate
rcond is never less than the true value
, and in practice is nearly always less than
, although examples can be constructed where
rcond is much larger.

Please consult the
X06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this function. Please also consult the
Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.
A call to
f07muc involves solving a number of systems of linear equations of the form
; the number is usually
and never more than
. Each solution involves approximately
real floating-point operations but takes considerably longer than a call to
f07msc with one right-hand side, because extra care is taken to avoid overflow when
is approximately singular.
The real analogue of this function is
f07mgc.
This example estimates the condition number in the
-norm (or
-norm) of the matrix
, where
Here
is Hermitian indefinite and must first be factorized by
f07mrc. The true condition number in the
-norm is
.
