3 Description

The

L U

decomposition with partial pivoting and row interchanges is used to factor

A

A = P L U

, where

P

is a permutation matrix,

L

is unit lower triangular, and

U

is upper triangular. The factored form of

A

is then used to solve the system of equations

A X = B

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

order = 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.

ipiv [i - 1]

ipiv [i - 1] = i

9: $rcond$ – double * Output

On exit: if no constraints are violated, an estimate of the reciprocal of the condition number of the matrix

A

, computed as

rcond = 1 / ({‖ A ‖}_{1} {‖ A^{- 1} ‖}_{1})

10: $errbnd$ – double * Output

On exit: if

fail . code =

NE_NOERROR or NE_RCOND, an estimate of the forward error bound for a computed solution

\hat{x}

, such that

{‖ \hat{x} - x ‖}_{1} / {‖ x ‖}_{1} \leq errbnd

, where

\hat{x}

is a column of the computed solution returned in the array b and

x

is the corresponding column of the exact solution

X

. If rcond is less than machine precision, errbnd is returned as unity.

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

6 Error Indicators and Warnings

NE_ALLOC_FAIL: Dynamic memory allocation failed.
The Complex allocatable memory required is $2 \times n$ , and the double allocatable memory required is $2 \times n$ . In this case the factorization and the solution $X$ have been computed, but rcond and errbnd have not been computed.
See Section 3.1.2 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for further information.
NE_BAD_PARAM: On entry, argument $⟨ value ⟩$ had an illegal value.
NE_INT: On entry, $n = ⟨ value ⟩$ .
Constraint: $n \geq 0$ .

On entry, $nrhs = ⟨ value ⟩$ .
Constraint: $nrhs \geq 0$ .

On entry, $pda = ⟨ value ⟩$ .
Constraint: $pda > 0$ .

NE_INTERNAL_ERROR: An internal error has occurred in this function. Check the function call and any array sizes. If the call is correct then please contact NAG for assistance.
See Section 7.5 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for further information.
NE_NO_LICENCE: Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.
See Section 8 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for further information.
NE_RCOND: A solution has been computed, but rcond is less than machine precision so that the matrix $A$ is numerically singular.
NE_SINGULAR: Diagonal element $⟨ value ⟩$ of the upper triangular factor is zero. The factorization has been completed, but the solution could not be computed.

7 Accuracy

The computed solution for a single right-hand side,

\hat{x}

, satisfies an equation of the form

(A + E) \hat{x} = b,

where

{‖ E ‖}_{1} = O (ε) {‖ A ‖}_{1}

and

ε

is the machine precision. An approximate error bound for the computed solution is given by

\frac{{‖ \hat{x} - x ‖}_{1}}{{‖ x ‖}_{1}} \leq κ (A) \frac{{‖ E ‖}_{1}}{{‖ A ‖}_{1}},

where

κ (A) = {‖ A^{- 1} ‖}_{1} {‖ A ‖}_{1}

, the condition number of

A

with respect to the solution of the linear equations. f04cac uses the approximation

{‖ E ‖}_{1} = ε {‖ A ‖}_{1}

to estimate errbnd. See Section 4.4 of Anderson et al. (1999) for further details.

8 Parallelism and Performance

Background information to multithreading can be found in the Multithreading documentation.

f04cac is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.

f04cac 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 function. Please also consult the Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.

9 Further Comments

The total number of floating-point operations required to solve the equations

A X = B

is proportional to

(\frac{2}{3} n^{3} + n^{2} r)

. The condition number estimation typically requires between four and five solves and never more than eleven solves, following the factorization.

In practice the condition number estimator is very reliable, but it can underestimate the true condition number; see Section 15.3 of Higham (2002) for further details.

The real analogue of f04cac is f04bac.

10 Example

This example solves the equations

A X = B,

where

A = (\begin{array}{r} - 1.34 + 2.55 i & 0.28 + 3.17 i & - 6.39 - 2.20 i & 0.72 - 0.92 i \\ - 0.17 - 1.41 i & 3.31 - 0.15 i & - 0.15 + 1.34 i & 1.29 + 1.38 i \\ - 3.29 - 2.39 i & - 1.91 + 4.42 i & - 0.14 - 1.35 i & 1.72 + 1.35 i \\ 2.41 + 0.39 i & - 0.56 + 1.47 i & - 0.83 - 0.69 i & - 1.96 + 0.67 i \end{array})

and

B = (\begin{array}{r} 26.26 + 51.78 i & 31.32 - 6.70 i \\ 6.43 - 8.68 i & 15.86 - 1.42 i \\ - 5.75 + 25.31 i & - 2.15 + 30.19 i \\ 1.16 + 2.57 i & - 2.56 + 7.55 i \end{array}) .

An estimate of the condition number of

A

and an approximate error bound for the computed solutions are also printed.
