nag_dspgst (f08tec) : NAG Library, Mark 26

Description

To reduce the real symmetric-definite generalized eigenproblem

A z = λ B z

A B z = λ z

B A z = λ z

to the standard form

C y = λ y

using packed storage, nag_dspgst (f08tec) must be preceded by a call to nag_dpptrf (f07gdc) which computes the Cholesky factorization of

B

;

B

must be positive definite.

The different problem types are specified by the argument comp_type, as indicated in the table below. The table shows how

C

is computed by the function, and also how the eigenvectors

z

of the original problem can be recovered from the eigenvectors of the standard form.

Arguments

order

– Nag_OrderTypeInput

On entry: the order argument specifies the two-dimensional storage scheme being used, i.e., row-major ordering or column-major ordering. C language defined storage is specified by

order = Nag_RowMajor

. See Section 3.3.1.3 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for a more detailed explanation of the use of this argument.

Constraint:

order = Nag_RowMajor

Nag_ColMajor

comp_type

– Nag_ComputeTypeInput

On entry: indicates how the standard form is computed.

$comp_type = Nag_Compute_1$

if $uplo = Nag_Upper$ , $C = U^{- T} A U^{- 1}$ ;
if $uplo = Nag_Lower$ , $C = L^{- 1} A L^{- T}$ .

$comp_type = Nag_Compute_2$ or $Nag_Compute_3$

if $uplo = Nag_Upper$ , $C = U A U^{T}$ ;
if $uplo = Nag_Lower$ , $C = L^{T} A L$ .

Constraint:

comp_type = Nag_Compute_1

Nag_Compute_2

Nag_Compute_3

uplo

– Nag_UploTypeInput

On entry: indicates whether the upper or lower triangular part of

A

is stored and how

B

has been factorized.

$uplo = Nag_Upper$: The upper triangular part of $A$ is stored and $B = U^{T} U$ .
$uplo = Nag_Lower$: The lower triangular part of $A$ is stored and $B = L L^{T}$ .

Constraint:

uplo = Nag_Upper

Nag_Lower

n

– IntegerInput

On entry:

n

, the order of the matrices

A

and

B

Constraint:

n \geq 0

ap [\dim]

– doubleInput/Output

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

\max (1, n \times (n + 1) / 2)

On entry: the upper or lower triangle of the

n

n

symmetric matrix

A

, packed by rows or columns.

The storage of elements

A_{i j}

depends on the order and uplo arguments as follows:

if $order = Nag_ColMajor$ and $uplo = Nag_Upper$ ,
$A_{i j}$ is stored in $ap [(j - 1) \times j / 2 + i - 1]$ , for $i \leq j$ ;
if $order = Nag_ColMajor$ and $uplo = Nag_Lower$ ,
$A_{i j}$ is stored in $ap [(2 n - j) \times (j - 1) / 2 + i - 1]$ , for $i \geq j$ ;
if $order = Nag_RowMajor$ and $uplo = Nag_Upper$ ,
$A_{i j}$ is stored in $ap [(2 n - i) \times (i - 1) / 2 + j - 1]$ , for $i \leq j$ ;
if $order = Nag_RowMajor$ and $uplo = Nag_Lower$ ,
$A_{i j}$ is stored in $ap [(i - 1) \times i / 2 + j - 1]$ , for $i \geq j$ .

On exit: the upper or lower triangle of ap is overwritten by the corresponding upper or lower triangle of

C

as specified by comp_type and uplo, using the same packed storage format as described above.

bp [\dim]

– const doubleInput

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

\max (1, n \times (n + 1) / 2)

On entry: the Cholesky factor of

B

as specified by uplo and returned by nag_dpptrf (f07gdc).

fail

– NagError *Input/Output

The NAG error argument (see Section 3.7 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation).

Error Indicators and Warnings

NE_ALLOC_FAIL

Dynamic memory allocation failed.
See Section 2.3.1.2 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for further information.

NE_BAD_PARAM

On entry, argument

〈value〉

had an illegal value.

NE_INT

On entry,

n = 〈value〉

.
Constraint:

n \geq 0

NE_INTERNAL_ERROR

An internal error has occurred in this function. Check the function call and any array sizes. If the call is correct then please contact NAG for assistance.
See Section 2.7.6 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for further information.

NE_NO_LICENCE

Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.
See Section 2.7.5 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for further information.

Accuracy

Forming the reduced matrix

C

is a stable procedure. However it involves implicit multiplication by

B^{- 1}

if (

comp_type = Nag_Compute_1

) or

B

(if

comp_type = Nag_Compute_2

Nag_Compute_3

). When nag_dspgst (f08tec) is used as a step in the computation of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the original problem, there may be a significant loss of accuracy if

B

is ill-conditioned with respect to inversion.

Parallelism and Performance

nag_dspgst (f08tec) makes calls to BLAS and/or LAPACK routines, which may be threaded within the vendor library used by this implementation. Consult the documentation for the vendor library for further information.

Please consult the x06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this function. Please also consult the Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.

Example

This example computes all the eigenvalues of

A z = λ B z

, where

A = (\begin{array}{r} 0.24 & 0.39 & 0.42 & - 0.16 \\ 0.39 & - 0.11 & 0.79 & 0.63 \\ 0.42 & 0.79 & - 0.25 & 0.48 \\ - 0.16 & 0.63 & 0.48 & - 0.03 \end{array}) and B = (\begin{array}{r} 4.16 & - 3.12 & 0.56 & - 0.10 \\ - 3.12 & 5.03 & - 0.83 & 1.09 \\ 0.56 & - 0.83 & 0.76 & 0.34 \\ - 0.10 & 1.09 & 0.34 & 1.18 \end{array}),

using packed storage. Here

B

is symmetric positive definite and must first be factorized by nag_dpptrf (f07gdc). The program calls nag_dspgst (f08tec) to reduce the problem to the standard form

C y = λ y

; then nag_dsptrd (f08gec) to reduce

C

to tridiagonal form, and nag_dsterf (f08jfc) to compute the eigenvalues.
