p?pttrf

Computes the Cholesky factorization of a symmetric (Hermitian) positive-definite tridiagonal distributed matrix.

call pdpttrf(n, d, e, ja, desca, af, laf, work, lwork, info)

call pcpttrf(n, d, e, ja, desca, af, laf, work, lwork, info)

call pzpttrf(n, d, e, ja, desca, af, laf, work, lwork, info)

Description

The p?pttrfroutine computes the Cholesky factorization of an n-by-n real symmetric or complex hermitian positive-definite tridiagonal distributed matrix A(1:n, ja:ja+n-1).

The resulting factorization is not the same factorization as returned from LAPACK. Additional permutations are performed on the matrix for the sake of parallelism.

The factorization has the form:

A(1:n, ja:ja+n-1) = P*L*D*LH*PT, or

A(1:n, ja:ja+n-1) = P*UH*D*U*PT,

where P is a permutation matrix, and U and L are tridiagonal upper and lower triangular matrices, respectively.

Input Parameters
n

(global) INTEGER. The order of the distributed submatrix A(1:n, ja:ja+n-1)

(n 0).

d, e

(local)

REAL for pspttrf

DOUBLE PRECISON for pdpttrf

COMPLEX for pcpttrf

DOUBLE COMPLEX for pzpttrf.

Pointers into the local memory to arrays of size nb_a each.

On entry, the array d contains the local part of the global vector storing the main diagonal of the distributed matrix A.

On entry, the array e contains the local part of the global vector storing the upper diagonal of the distributed matrix A.

ja

(global) INTEGER. The index in the global matrix A indicating the start of the matrix to be operated on (which may be either all of A or a submatrix of A).

desca

(global and local ) INTEGER array of size dlen_. The array descriptor for the distributed matrix A.

If dtype_a = 501, then dlen_ 7;

else if dtype_a = 1, then dlen_ 9.

laf

(local) INTEGER. The size of the array af.

Must be lafnb_a+2.

If laf is not large enough, an error code will be returned and the minimum acceptable size will be returned in af(1).

work

(local) Same type as d and e. Workspace array of size lwork .

lwork

(local or global) INTEGER. The size of the work array, must be at least

lwork 8*NPCOL.

Output Parameters
d, e

On exit, overwritten by the details of the factorization.

af

(local)

REAL for pspttrf

DOUBLE PRECISION for pdpttrf

COMPLEX for pcpttrf

DOUBLE COMPLEX for pzpttrf.

Array of size laf.

Auxiliary fill-in space. The fill-in space is created in a call to the factorization routine p?pttrf and stored in af.

Note that if a linear system is to be solved using p?pttrs after the factorization routine,af must not be altered.

work(1)

On exit, work(1) contains the minimum value of lwork required for optimum performance.

info

(global) INTEGER.

If info=0, the execution is successful.

info < 0:

If the i-th argument is an array and the j-th entry had an illegal value, then info = -(i*100+j); if the i-th argument is a scalar and had an illegal value, then info = -i.

info> 0:

If info = kNPROCS, the submatrix stored on processor info and factored locally was not positive definite, and the factorization was not completed.

If info = k > NPROCS, the submatrix stored on processor info-NPROCS representing interactions with other processors was not nonsingular, and the factorization was not completed.
