naginterfaces.library.blas.zlanhf(norm, transr, uplo, n, a)

zlanhf returns the value of the $1$-norm, the $\infty$-norm, the Frobenius norm, or the maximum absolute value of the elements of a complex Hermitian matrix $A$ stored in Rectangular Full Packed (RFP) format.

Parameters

normstr, length 1

Specifies the value to be returned.

$norm=\text{'1'}$ or $\text{'O'}$

The $1$-norm.

$norm=\text{'I'}$

The $\infty$-norm.

$norm=\text{'F'}$ or $\text{'E'}$

The Frobenius (or Euclidean) norm.

$norm=\text{'M'}$

The value ${max}_{i,j}\left(\left|a_{ij}\right|\right)$ (not a norm).

transrstr, length 1

Specifies whether the normal RFP representation of $A$ or its conjugate transpose is stored.

$transr=\text{'N'}$

The matrix $A$ is stored in normal RFP format.

$transr=\text{'C'}$

The conjugate transpose of the RFP representation of the matrix $A$ is stored.

uplostr, length 1

Specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of $A$ is stored.

$uplo=\text{'U'}$

The upper triangular part of $A$ is stored.

$uplo=\text{'L'}$

The lower triangular part of $A$ is stored.

nint

$n$, the order of the matrix $A$.

When $n=0$, zlanhf returns zero.

acomplex, array-like, shape $(n\times (n+1)/2)$

The upper or lower triangular part (as specified by $uplo$) of the $n\times n$ Hermitian matrix $A$, in either normal or transposed RFP format (as specified by $transr$). The storage format is described in detail in the F07 Introduction.

Returns

nrmfloat

The $\infty$-norm, the Frobenius norm, or the maximum absolute value of the elements of the complex Hermitian matrix $A$ stored in Rectangular Full Packed (RFP) format.

Raises

NagValueError

(errno $1$)

On entry, error in parameter $norm$.

Constraint: $norm=\text{'1'}$, $\text{'O'}$, $\text{'I'}$, $\text{'F'}$, $\text{'E'}$ or $\text{'M'}$.

(errno $2$)

On entry, error in parameter $transr$.

Constraint: $transr=\text{'N'}$ or $\text{'C'}$.

(errno $3$)

On entry, error in parameter $uplo$.

Constraint: $uplo=\text{'U'}$ or $\text{'L'}$.

(errno $4$)

On entry, error in parameter $n$.

Constraint: $n\ge 0$.

Notes

No equivalent traditional C interface for this routine exists in the NAG Library.

Given a complex $n\times n$ symmetric matrix, $A$, zlanhf calculates one of the values given by

${\parallel A\parallel }_1={max}_j\left({\sum }_{i=1}^n\left|a_{ij}\right|\right)$	(the $1$-norm of $A$),
${\parallel A\parallel }_{\infty }={max}_i\left({\sum }_{j=1}^n\left|a_{ij}\right|\right)$	(the $\infty$-norm of $A$),
${\parallel A\parallel }_F={\left({\sum }_{i=1}^n{\sum }_{j=1}^n{\left|a_{ij}\right|}^2\right)}^{1/2}$	(the Frobenius norm of $A$), or
${max}_{i,j}\left(\left|a_{ij}\right|\right)$	(the maximum absolute element value of $A$).

$A$ is stored in compact form using the RFP format. The RFP storage format is described in the F07 Introduction.
