Description

The routine ?larfgp generates a real/complex elementary reflector H of order n, such that

Equation for real flavors and

Equation for complex flavors,

where alpha and beta are scalars (with beta real and non-negative for all flavors), and x is an (n-1)-element real/complex vector. H is represented in the form

Equation for real flavors and

Equation for complex flavors,

where tau is a real/complex scalar and v is a real/complex (n-1)-element vector. Note that for c/zlarfgp, H is not Hermitian.

If the elements of x are all zero (and, for complex flavors, alpha is real), then tau = 0 and H is taken to be the unit matrix.

Otherwise, 1 ≤ tau ≤ 2 (for real flavors), or

1 ≤ Re(tau) ≤ 2 and abs(tau-1) ≤ 1 (for complex flavors).
