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.

Constraint:

order = Nag_RowMajor

Nag_ColMajor

2: $uplo$ – Nag_UploType Input

On entry: specifies how

A

has been factorized.

$uplo = Nag_Upper$: $A = U^{T} U$ , where $U$ is upper triangular.
$uplo = Nag_Lower$: $A = L L^{T}$ , where $L$ is lower triangular.

Constraint:

uplo = Nag_Upper

Nag_Lower

3: $n$ – Integer Input

On entry:

n

, the order of the matrix

A

Constraint:

n \geq 0

4: $a [\dim]$ – double Input/Output

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array a must be at least

\max (1, pda \times n)

On entry: the upper triangular matrix

U

uplo = Nag_Upper

or the lower triangular matrix

L

uplo = Nag_Lower

, as returned by f07fdc.

On exit:

U

is overwritten by the upper triangle of

A^{- 1}

uplo = Nag_Upper

;

L

is overwritten by the lower triangle of

A^{- 1}

uplo = Nag_Lower

5: $pda$ – Integer Input

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

Constraint:

pda \geq \max (1, n)

6: $fail$ – NagError * Input/Output

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.
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, $pda = ⟨ value ⟩$ .
Constraint: $pda > 0$ .
NE_INT_2: On entry, $pda = ⟨ value ⟩$ and $n = ⟨ value ⟩$ .
Constraint: $pda \geq \max (1, n)$ .
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_SINGULAR: Diagonal element $⟨ value ⟩$ of the Cholesky factor is zero; the Cholesky factor is singular and the inverse of $A$ cannot be computed.

7 Accuracy

The computed inverse

X

satisfies

{‖ X A - I ‖}_{2} \leq c (n) ε κ_{2} (A) and {‖ A X - I ‖}_{2} \leq c (n) ε κ_{2} (A),

where

c (n)

is a modest function of

n

ε

is the machine precision and

κ_{2} (A)

is the condition number of

A

defined by

κ_{2} (A) = {‖ A ‖}_{2} {‖ A^{- 1} ‖}_{2} .

8 Parallelism and Performance

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

f07fjc 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 is approximately

\frac{2}{3} n^{3}

The complex analogue of this function is f07fwc.

10 Example

This example computes the inverse of the matrix

A

, where

A = (\begin{matrix} 4.16 & - 3.12 & 0.56 & - 0.10 \\ - 3.12 & 5.03 & - 0.83 & 1.18 \\ 0.56 & - 0.83 & 0.76 & 0.34 \\ - 0.10 & 1.18 & 0.34 & 1.18 \end{matrix}) .

Here

A

is symmetric positive definite and must first be factorized by f07fdc.
