naginterfaces.library.lapacklin.dpptrs(uplo, n, ap, b)

dpptrs solves a real symmetric positive definite system of linear equations with multiple right-hand sides,

$$AX=B\text{,}$$

where $A$ has been factorized by dpptrf(), using packed storage.

Parameters

uplostr, length 1

Specifies how $A$ has been factorized.

$uplo=\text{'U'}$

$A=U^{T}U$, where $U$ is upper triangular.

$uplo=\text{'L'}$

$A=L{L}^T$, where $L$ is lower triangular.

nint

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

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

The Cholesky factor of $A$ stored in packed form, as returned by dpptrf().

bfloat, array-like, shape $(n,\text{nrhs})$

The $n\times r$ right-hand side matrix $B$.

Returns

bfloat, ndarray, shape $(n,\text{nrhs})$

The $n\times r$ solution matrix $X$.

Raises

NagValueError

(errno $-1$)

On entry, error in parameter $uplo$.

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

(errno $-2$)

On entry, error in parameter $n$.

Constraint: $n\ge 0$.

(errno $-3$)

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

Constraint: $\text{nrhs}\ge 0$.

Notes

dpptrs is used to solve a real symmetric positive definite system of linear equations $AX=B$, the function must be preceded by a call to dpptrf() which computes the Cholesky factorization of $A$, using packed storage. The solution $X$ is computed by forward and backward substitution.

If $uplo=\text{'U'}$, $A=U^{T}U$, where $U$ is upper triangular; the solution $X$ is computed by solving $U^{T}Y=B$ and then $UX=Y$.

If $uplo=\text{'L'}$, $A=L{L}^T$, where $L$ is lower triangular; the solution $X$ is computed by solving $LY=B$ and then $L^{T}X=Y$.
