naginterfaces.library.lapackeig.dstedc(compz, d, e, z)

dstedc computes all the eigenvalues and, optionally, all the eigenvectors of a real $n\times n$ symmetric tridiagonal matrix, or of a real full or banded symmetric matrix which has been reduced to tridiagonal form.

Parameters

compzstr, length 1

Indicates whether the eigenvectors are to be computed.

$compz=\text{'N'}$

Only the eigenvalues are computed (and the array $z$ is not referenced).

$compz=\text{'V'}$

The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of $A$ are computed (and the array $z$ must contain the matrix $Q$ on entry).

$compz=\text{'I'}$

The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of $T$ are computed (and the array $z$ is initialized by the function).

dfloat, array-like, shape $\left(n\right)$

The diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix.

efloat, array-like, shape $(max(1,n-1))$

The subdiagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix.

zfloat, array-like, shape $(:,:)$

Note: the required extent for this argument in dimension 1 is determined as follows: if $compz\text{in}(\text{'V'},\text{'I'})$: $n$; otherwise: $1$.

Note: the required extent for this argument in dimension 2 is determined as follows: if $compz\text{in}(\text{'V'},\text{'I'})$: $n$; otherwise: $1$.

If $compz=\text{'V'}$, $z$ must contain the orthogonal matrix $Q$ used in the reduction to tridiagonal form.

Returns

dfloat, ndarray, shape $\left(n\right)$

If no exception or warning is raised, the eigenvalues in ascending order.

efloat, ndarray, shape $(max(1,n-1))$

$e$ is overwritten.

zfloat, ndarray, shape $(:,:)$

If $compz=\text{'V'}$, $z$ contains the orthonormal eigenvectors of the original symmetric matrix $A$, and if $compz=\text{'I'}$, $z$ contains the orthonormal eigenvectors of the symmetric tridiagonal matrix $T$.

If $compz=\text{'N'}$, $z$ is not referenced.

Raises

NagValueError

(errno $-1$)

On entry, error in parameter $compz$.

Constraint: $compz=\text{'N'}$, $\text{'V'}$ or $\text{'I'}$.

(errno $-2$)

On entry, error in parameter $\text{n}$.

Constraint: $n\ge 0$.

Warns

NagAlgorithmicWarning

(errno $i>0$)

The algorithm failed to compute an eigenvalue while working on the submatrix lying in rows and columns $⟨value⟩/(n+1)$ through $mod(⟨value⟩,n+1)$.

Notes

dstedc computes all the eigenvalues and, optionally, the eigenvectors of a real symmetric tridiagonal matrix $T$. That is, the function computes the spectral factorization of $T$ given by

$$T=Z\Lambda Z^T\text{,}$$

where $\Lambda$ is a diagonal matrix whose diagonal elements are the eigenvalues, ${\lambda }_i$, of $T$ and $Z$ is an orthogonal matrix whose columns are the eigenvectors, $z_i$, of $T$. Thus

$$T{z}_i={\lambda }_i{z}_i\text{,}i=1,2,\dots ,n\text{.}$$

The function may also be used to compute all the eigenvalues and vectors of a real full, or banded, symmetric matrix $A$ which has been reduced to tridiagonal form $T$ as

$$A=QT{Q}^T\text{,}$$

where $Q$ is orthogonal. The spectral factorization of $A$ is then given by

$$A=\left(QZ\right)\Lambda {\left(QZ\right)}^T\text{.}$$

In this case $Q$ must be formed explicitly and passed to dstedc in the array $z$, and the function called with $compz=\text{'V'}$. Functions which may be called to form $T$ and $Q$ are

full matrix	dsytrd() and dorgtr()
full matrix, packed storage	dsptrd() and dopgtr()
band matrix	dsbtrd(), with $\text{vect}=\text{'V'}$

When only eigenvalues are required then this function calls dsterf() to compute the eigenvalues of the tridiagonal matrix $T$, but when eigenvectors of $T$ are also required and the matrix is not too small, then a divide and conquer method is used, which can be much faster than dsteqr(), although more storage is required.
