Description

The routine solves for real data a system of linear equations A*X = B with a symmetric positive-definite or, for complex data, Hermitian positive-definite band matrix A, given the Cholesky factorization of A:

A = UT*U for real data, A = UH*U for complex data if uplo='U'
A = L*LT for real data, A = L*LH for complex data if uplo='L'

where L is a lower triangular matrix and U is upper triangular. The system is solved with multiple right-hand sides stored in the columns of the matrix B.

Before calling this routine, you must call ?pbtrf to compute the Cholesky factorization of A in the band storage form.

Input Parameters

uplo

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

Indicates how the input matrix A has been factored:

If uplo = 'U', U is stored in ab, where A = UT*U for real matrices and A = UH*U for complex matrices.

If uplo = 'L', L is stored in ab, where A = L*LT for real matrices and A = L*LH for complex matrices.

n

INTEGER. The order of matrix A; n 0.

kd

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

nrhs

INTEGER. The number of right-hand sides; nrhs 0.

ab, b

REAL for spbtrs

DOUBLE PRECISION for dpbtrs

COMPLEX for cpbtrs

DOUBLE COMPLEX for zpbtrs.

Arrays: ab(ldab,*), b(ldb,*).

The array ab contains the Cholesky factor, as returned by the factorization routine, in band storage form.

The array b contains the matrix B whose columns are the right-hand sides for the systems of equations.

The second dimension of ab must be at least max(1, n), and the second dimension of b at least max(1,nrhs).

ldab

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

ldb

INTEGER. The leading dimension of b; ldb max(1, n).

Output Parameters

b

Overwritten by the solution matrix X.

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 pbtrs interface are as follows:

ab

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

b

Holds the matrix B of size (n, nrhs).

uplo

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

Application Notes

For each right-hand side b, the computed solution is the exact solution of a perturbed system of equations (A + E)x = b, where

|E|  c(kd + 1)ε P|UH||U| or |E|  c(kd + 1)ε P|LH||L|

c(k) is a modest linear function of k, and ε is the machine precision.

If x0 is the true solution, the computed solution x satisfies this error bound:


Equation

where cond(A,x)= || |A-1||A| |x| || / ||x|| ||A-1|| ||A|| = κ(A).

Note that cond(A,x) can be much smaller than κ(A).

The approximate number of floating-point operations for one right-hand side vector is 4n*kd for real flavors and 16n*kd for complex flavors.

To estimate the condition number κ(A), call ?pbcon.

To refine the solution and estimate the error, call ?pbrfs.
