Description

The routine estimates the reciprocal of the condition number of a triangular band matrix A in either the 1-norm or infinity-norm:

κ1(A) =||A||1 ||A-1||1 = κ(AT) = κ(AH)

κ(A) =||A|| ||A-1|| =κ1 (AT) = κ1(AH) .

Input Parameters

norm

CHARACTER*1. Must be '1' or 'O' or 'I'.

If norm = '1' or 'O', then the routine estimates the condition number of matrix A in 1-norm.

If norm = 'I', then the routine estimates the condition number of matrix A in infinity-norm.

uplo

CHARACTER*1. Must be 'U' or 'L'. Indicates whether A is upper or lower triangular:

If uplo = 'U', the array ap stores the upper triangle of A in packed form.

If uplo = 'L', the array ap stores the lower triangle of A in packed form.

diag

CHARACTER*1. Must be 'N' or 'U'.

If diag = 'N', then A is not a unit triangular matrix.

If diag = 'U', then A is unit triangular: diagonal elements are assumed to be 1 and not referenced in the array ab.

n

INTEGER. The order of the matrix A; n 0.

kd

INTEGER. The number of superdiagonals or subdiagonals in the matrix A; kd 0.

ab, work

REAL for stbcon

DOUBLE PRECISION for dtbcon

COMPLEX for ctbcon

DOUBLE COMPLEX for ztbcon.

The array ab(ldab,*) contains the band matrix A. The second dimension of ab must be at least max(1,n).

The array work is a workspace for the routine. The dimension of work(*) must be at least max(1, 3*n) for real flavors and max(1, 2*n) for complex flavors.

ldab

INTEGER. The leading dimension of the array ab. (ldabkd +1).

iwork

INTEGER. Workspace array, size at least max(1, n).

rwork

REAL for ctbcon

DOUBLE PRECISION for ztbcon.

Workspace array, size at least max(1, n).

Output Parameters

rcond

REAL for single precision flavors.

DOUBLE PRECISION for double precision flavors.

An estimate of the reciprocal of the condition number. The routine sets rcond =0 if the estimate underflows; in this case the matrix is singular (to working precision). However, anytime rcond is small compared to 1.0, for the working precision, the matrix may be poorly conditioned or even singular.

info

INTEGER. If info = 0, the execution is successful.

If info = -i, the i-th parameter had an illegal value.

LAPACK 95 Interface Notes

Routines in Fortran 95 interface have fewer arguments in the calling sequence than their FORTRAN 77 counterparts. For general conventions applied to skip redundant or reconstructible arguments, see LAPACK 95 Interface Conventions.

Specific details for the routine tbcon interface are as follows:

ab

Holds the array A of size (kd+1,n).

norm

Must be '1', 'O', or 'I'. The default value is '1'.

uplo

Must be 'U' or 'L'. The default value is 'U'.

diag

Must be 'N' or 'U'. The default value is 'N'.

Application Notes

The computed rcond is never less than r (the reciprocal of the true condition number) and in practice is nearly always less than 10r. A call to this routine involves solving a number of systems of linear equations A*x = b; the number is usually 4 or 5 and never more than 11. Each solution requires approximately 2*n(kd + 1) floating-point operations for real flavors and 8*n(kd + 1) operations for complex flavors.
