f08juc computes all the eigenvalues and, optionally, all the eigenvectors of a complex Hermitian positive definite matrix which has been reduced to tridiagonal form.
The function may be called by the names: f08juc, nag_lapackeig_zpteqr or nag_zpteqr.
3Description
f08juc computes all the eigenvalues and, optionally, all the eigenvectors of a real symmetric positive definite tridiagonal matrix .
In other words, it can compute the spectral factorization of as
where is a diagonal matrix whose diagonal elements are the eigenvalues , and is the orthogonal matrix whose columns are the eigenvectors . Thus
The function stores the real orthogonal matrix in a complex array, so that it may be used to compute all the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a complex Hermitian positive definite matrix which has been reduced to tridiagonal form :
In this case, the matrix must be formed explicitly and passed to f08juc, which must be called with . The functions which must be called to perform the reduction to tridiagonal form and form are:
f08juc first factorizes as where is unit lower bidiagonal and is diagonal. It forms the bidiagonal matrix , and then calls f08msc to compute the singular values of which are the same as the eigenvalues of . The method used by the function allows high relative accuracy to be achieved in the small eigenvalues of . The eigenvectors are normalized so that , but are determined only to within a complex factor of absolute value .

NE_NO_LICENCE
Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.

NE_POS_DEF
The leading minor of order is not positive definite and the Cholesky factorization of could not be completed. Hence itself is not positive definite.
7Accuracy
The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of are computed to high relative accuracy which means that if they vary widely in magnitude, then any small eigenvalues (and corresponding eigenvectors) will be computed more accurately than, for example, with the standard method. However, the reduction to tridiagonal form (prior to calling the function) may exclude the possibility of obtaining high relative accuracy in the small eigenvalues of the original matrix if its eigenvalues vary widely in magnitude.
To be more precise, let be the tridiagonal matrix defined by , where is diagonal with , and for all . If is an exact eigenvalue of and is the corresponding computed value, then

8Parallelism and Performance
Background information to multithreading can be found in the Multithreading documentation.
f08juc is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
f08juc 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.
9Further Comments
The total number of real floating-point operations is typically about if and about if or , but depends on how rapidly the algorithm converges. When , the operations are all performed in scalar mode; the additional operations to compute the eigenvectors when or can be vectorized and on some machines may be performed much faster.
