f08bsf computes the factorization, with column pivoting, of a complex matrix. f08bsf is marked as deprecated by LAPACK; the replacement routine is f08btf which makes better use of Level 3 BLAS.
The routine may be called by the names f08bsf, nagf_lapackeig_zgeqpf or its LAPACK name zgeqpf.
3Description
f08bsf forms the factorization, with column pivoting, of an arbitrary rectangular complex matrix.
If , the factorization is given by:
where is an upper triangular matrix (with real diagonal elements), is an unitary matrix and is an permutation matrix. It is sometimes more convenient to write the factorization as
which reduces to
where consists of the first columns of , and the remaining columns.
If , is trapezoidal, and the factorization can be written
where is upper triangular and is rectangular.
The matrix is not formed explicitly but is represented as a product of elementary reflectors (see the F08 Chapter Introduction for details). Routines are provided to work with in this representation (see Section 9).
Note also that for any , the information returned in the first columns of the array a represents a factorization of the first columns of the permuted matrix .
The routine allows specified columns of to be moved to the leading columns of at the start of the factorization and fixed there. The remaining columns are free to be interchanged so that at the th stage the pivot column is chosen to be the column which maximizes the -norm of elements to over columns to .
