f07cec (dgttrs)

void	f07cec (Nag_OrderType order, Nag_TransType trans, Integer n, Integer nrhs, const double dl[], const double d[], const double du[], const double du2[], const Integer ipiv[], double b[], Integer pdb, NagError *fail)

The function may be called by the names: f07cec, nag_lapacklin_dgttrs or nag_dgttrs.

3 Description

f07cec should be preceded by a call to f07cdc, which uses Gaussian elimination with partial pivoting and row interchanges to factorize the matrix

A

A = P L U,

where

P

is a permutation matrix,

L

is unit lower triangular with at most one nonzero subdiagonal element in each column, and

U

is an upper triangular band matrix, with two superdiagonals. f07cec then utilizes the factorization to solve the required equations.

5 Arguments

1: $order$ – Nag_OrderType Input

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: $trans$ – Nag_TransType Input

On entry: specifies the equations to be solved as follows:

$trans = Nag_NoTrans$: Solve $A X = B$ for $X$ .
$trans = Nag_Trans$ or $Nag_ConjTrans$: Solve $A^{T} X = B$ for $X$ .

Constraint:

trans = Nag_NoTrans

Nag_Trans

Nag_ConjTrans

On entry:

n

, the order of the matrix

A

Constraint:

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

\max (1, n)

On entry: must contain the

pivot indices that define the permutation matrix

P

. At the

i

th step, row

i

of the matrix was interchanged with row

ipiv [i - 1]

, and

ipiv [i - 1]

must always be either

i

(i + 1)

ipiv [i - 1] = i

indicating that a row interchange was not performed.

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

Following the use of this function f07cgc can be used to estimate the condition number of

A

and f07chc can be used to obtain approximate error bounds.

8 Parallelism and Performance

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

f07cec is not threaded in any implementation.

9 Further Comments

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

A X = B

A^{T} X = B

is proportional to

n r

The complex analogue of this function is f07csc.

10 Example

This example solves the equations
