11:  $\mathbf{vl}$ – doubleInput

12:  $\mathbf{vu}$ – doubleInput

If $\mathbf{range}=\mathrm{Nag\_AllValues}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_Indices}$, vl and vu are not referenced.

Constraints:

• if $\mathbf{range}=\mathrm{Nag\_Indices}$ and $\mathbf{n}=0$, $\mathbf{il}=1$ and $\mathbf{iu}=0$;

15:  $\mathbf{abstol}$ – doubleInput

On entry: the absolute error tolerance for the eigenvalues. An approximate eigenvalue is accepted as converged when it is determined to lie in an interval $\left[a,b\right]$ of width less than or equal to

$$\mathbf{abstol}+\epsilon \max \left(\left|a\right|,\left|b\right|\right)\text{,}$$

where $\epsilon$ is the machine precision. If abstol is less than or equal to zero, then $\epsilon {‖T‖}_1$ will be used in its place, where $T$ is the tridiagonal matrix obtained by reducing $C$ to tridiagonal form. Eigenvalues will be computed most accurately when abstol is set to twice the underflow threshold $2\times \mathbf{nag\_real\_safe\_small\_number}\left( \right)$, not zero. If this function returns with $\mathbf{fail}\mathbf{.}\mathbf{code}=$ NE_CONVERGENCE, indicating that some eigenvectors did not converge, try setting abstol to $2\times \mathbf{nag\_real\_safe\_small\_number}\left( \right)$. See Demmel and Kahan (1990).

16:  $\mathbf{m}$ – Integer *Output

On exit: the total number of eigenvalues found. $0\le \mathbf{m}\le \mathbf{n}$.

If $\mathbf{range}=\mathrm{Nag\_AllValues}$, $\mathbf{m}=\mathbf{n}$.

If $\mathbf{range}=\mathrm{Nag\_Indices}$, $\mathbf{m}=\mathbf{iu}-\mathbf{il}+1$.

17:  $\mathbf{w}\left[\mathbf{n}\right]$ – doubleOutput

On exit: the first m elements contain the selected eigenvalues in ascending order.

18:  $\mathbf{z}\left[\mathit{dim}\right]$ – doubleOutput

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

• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{pdz}\times \mathbf{n}\right)$ when $\mathbf{job}=\mathrm{Nag\_DoBoth}$;
• $1$ otherwise.

The $\left(i,j\right)$th element of the matrix $Z$ is stored in

• $\mathbf{z}\left[\left(j-1\right)\times \mathbf{pdz}+i-1\right]$ when $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$;
• $\mathbf{z}\left[\left(i-1\right)\times \mathbf{pdz}+j-1\right]$ when $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$.

On exit: if $\mathbf{job}=\mathrm{Nag\_DoBoth}$, then

• if $\mathbf{fail}\mathbf{.}\mathbf{code}=$ NE_NOERROR, the first m columns of $Z$ contain the orthonormal eigenvectors of the matrix $A$ corresponding to the selected eigenvalues, with the $i$th column of $Z$ holding the eigenvector associated with $\mathbf{w}\left[i-1\right]$. The eigenvectors are normalized as follows:
  • if $\mathbf{itype}=1$ or $2$, $Z^{\mathrm{T}}BZ=I$;
  • if $\mathbf{itype}=3$, $Z^{\mathrm{T}}{B}^{-1}Z=I$;
• if an eigenvector fails to converge ($\mathbf{fail}\mathbf{.}\mathbf{code}=$ NE_CONVERGENCE), then that column of $Z$ contains the latest approximation to the eigenvector, and the index of the eigenvector is returned in jfail.

If $\mathbf{job}=\mathrm{Nag\_EigVals}$, z is not referenced.

19:  $\mathbf{pdz}$ – IntegerInput

On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) in the array z.

Constraints:

• if $\mathbf{job}=\mathrm{Nag\_DoBoth}$, $\mathbf{pdz}\ge \max \left(1,\mathbf{n}\right)$;
• otherwise $\mathbf{pdz}\ge 1$.

20:  $\mathbf{jfail}\left[\mathit{dim}\right]$ – IntegerOutput

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array jfail must be at least $\max \left(1,\mathbf{n}\right)$.

On exit: if $\mathbf{job}=\mathrm{Nag\_DoBoth}$, then

• if $\mathbf{fail}\mathbf{.}\mathbf{code}=$ NE_NOERROR, the first m elements of jfail are zero;
• if $\mathbf{fail}\mathbf{.}\mathbf{code}=$ NE_CONVERGENCE, jfail contains the indices of the eigenvectors that failed to converge.

If $\mathbf{job}=\mathrm{Nag\_EigVals}$, jfail is not referenced.

21:  $\mathbf{fail}$ – NagError *Input/Output
