naginterfaces.library.lapacklin.zsysvx(fact, uplo, a, af, ipiv, b)

zsysvx uses the diagonal pivoting factorization to compute the solution to a complex system of linear equations

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

where $A$ is an $n\times n$ symmetric matrix and $X$ and $B$ are $n\times r$ matrices. Error bounds on the solution and a condition estimate are also provided.

Parameters

factstr, length 1

Specifies whether or not the factorized form of the matrix $A$ has been supplied.

$fact=\text{'F'}$

$af$ and $ipiv$ contain the factorized form of the matrix $A$. $af$ and $ipiv$ will not be modified.

$fact=\text{'N'}$

The matrix $A$ will be copied to $af$ and factorized.

uplostr, length 1

If $uplo=\text{'U'}$, the upper triangle of $A$ is stored.

If $uplo=\text{'L'}$, the lower triangle of $A$ is stored.

acomplex, array-like, shape $(n,n)$

The $n\times n$ symmetric matrix $A$.

afcomplex, array-like, shape $(n,n)$

If $fact=\text{'F'}$, $af$ contains the block diagonal matrix $D$ and the multipliers used to obtain the factor $U$ or $L$ from the factorization $a=UD{U}^H$ or $a=LD{L}^H$ as computed by zsytrf().

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

If $fact=\text{'F'}$, $ipiv$ contains details of the interchanges and the block structure of $D$, as determined by zsytrf().

if $ipiv[i-1]=k>0$, $d_{ii}$ is a $1\times 1$ pivot block and the $i$th row and column of $A$ were interchanged with the $k$th row and column;

if $uplo=\text{'U'}$ and $ipiv[i-2]=ipiv[i-1]=-l<0$, $\left(\begin{array}{cc}{d}_{i-1,i-1}& {\overline{d}}_{i,i-1}\\ {\overline{d}}_{i,i-1}& d_{ii}\end{array}\right)$ is a $2\times 2$ pivot block and the $(i-1)$th row and column of $A$ were interchanged with the $l$th row and column;

if $uplo=\text{'L'}$ and $ipiv[i-1]=ipiv\left[i\right]=-m<0$, $\left(\begin{array}{cc}{d}_{ii}& d_{i+1,i}\\ d_{i+1,i}& d_{i+1,i+1}\end{array}\right)$ is a $2\times 2$ pivot block and the $(i+1)$th row and column of $A$ were interchanged with the $m$th row and column.

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

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

Returns

afcomplex, ndarray, shape $(n,n)$

If $fact=\text{'N'}$, $af$ returns the block diagonal matrix $D$ and the multipliers used to obtain the factor $U$ or $L$ from the factorization $a=UD{U}^H$ or $a=LD{L}^H$.

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

If $fact=\text{'N'}$, $ipiv$ contains details of the interchanges and the block structure of $D$, as determined by zsytrf(), as described above.

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

If the function exits successfully or $errno$ = $n$ + 1, the $n\times r$ solution matrix $X$.

rcondfloat

The estimate of the reciprocal condition number of the matrix $A$. If $rcond=0.0$, the matrix may be exactly singular. This condition is indicated by $errno$ in 1 … $n$. Otherwise, if $rcond$ is less than the machine precision, the matrix is singular to working precision. This condition is indicated by $errno$ = $n$ + 1.

ferrfloat, ndarray, shape $\left(\text{nrhs}\right)$

If the function exits successfully or $errno$ = $n$ + 1, an estimate of the forward error bound for each computed solution vector, such that ${\Vert {\hat{x}}_j-x_j\Vert }_{\infty }/{\Vert x_j\Vert }_{\infty }\le ferr[j-1]$ where ${\hat{x}}_j$ is the $j$th column of the computed solution returned in the array $x$ and $x_j$ is the corresponding column of the exact solution $X$. The estimate is as reliable as the estimate for $rcond$, and is almost always a slight overestimate of the true error.

berrfloat, ndarray, shape $\left(\text{nrhs}\right)$

If the function exits successfully or $errno$ = $n$ + 1, an estimate of the component-wise relative backward error of each computed solution vector ${\hat{x}}_j$ (i.e., the smallest relative change in any element of $A$ or $B$ that makes ${\hat{x}}_j$ an exact solution).

Raises

NagValueError

(errno $-1$)

On entry, error in parameter $fact$.

Constraint: $fact=\text{'F'}$ or $\text{'N'}$.

(errno $-2$)

On entry, error in parameter $uplo$.

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

(errno $-3$)

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

Constraint: $n\ge 0$.

(errno $-4$)

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

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

Warns

NagAlgorithmicWarning

(errno $(i>0)\text{and}(i\le n)$)

Element $⟨value⟩$ of the diagonal is exactly zero. The factorization has been completed, but the factor $D$ is exactly singular, so the solution and error bounds could not be computed. $rcond=0.0$ is returned.

(errno $n+1$)

$D$ is nonsingular, but $rcond$ is less than machine precision, meaning that the matrix is singular to working precision. Nevertheless, the solution and error bounds are computed because there are a number of situations where the computed solution can be more accurate than the value of $rcond$ would suggest.

Notes

zsysvx performs the following steps:

1. If $fact=\text{'N'}$, the diagonal pivoting method is used to factor $A$. The form of the factorization is $A=UD{U}^T$ if $uplo=\text{'U'}$ or $A=LD{L}^T$ if $uplo=\text{'L'}$, where $U$ (or $L$) is a product of permutation and unit upper (lower) triangular matrices, and $D$ is symmetric and block diagonal with $1\times 1$ and $2\times 2$ diagonal blocks.

2. If some $d_{ii}=0$, so that $D$ is exactly singular, then the function returns with $\text{errno}=i$. Otherwise, the factored form of $A$ is used to estimate the condition number of the matrix $A$. If the reciprocal of the condition number is less than machine precision, $errno$ = $n$ + 1 is returned as a warning, but the function still goes on to solve for $X$ and compute error bounds as described below.

3. The system of equations is solved for $X$ using the factored form of $A$.

4. Iterative refinement is applied to improve the computed solution matrix and to calculate error bounds and backward error estimates for it.
