Description

The routine computes selected eigenvalues and, optionally, eigenvectors of a real symmetric tridiagonal matrix T. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors can be selected by specifying either a range of values or a range of indices for the desired eigenvalues.

Whenever possible, the routine calls stemr to compute the eigenspectrum using Relatively Robust Representations. stegr computes eigenvalues by the dqds algorithm, while orthogonal eigenvectors are computed from various "good" L*D*LT representations (also known as Relatively Robust Representations). Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization is avoided as far as possible. More specifically, the various steps of the algorithm are as follows. For the i-th unreduced block of T:

  1. Compute T - σi = Li*Di*LiT, such that Li*Di*LiT is a relatively robust representation.

  2. Compute the eigenvalues, λj, of Li*Di*LiT to high relative accuracy by the dqds algorithm.

  3. If there is a cluster of close eigenvalues, "choose" σi close to the cluster, and go to Step (a).

  4. Given the approximate eigenvalue λj of Li*Di*LiT, compute the corresponding eigenvector by forming a rank-revealing twisted factorization.

The desired accuracy of the output can be specified by the input parameter abstol.

The routine ?stevr calls stemr when the full spectrum is requested on machines which conform to the IEEE-754 floating point standard. ?stevr calls stebz and stein on non-IEEE machines and when partial spectrum requests are made.

Input Parameters
jobz

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

If jobz = 'N', then only eigenvalues are computed.

If jobz = 'V', then eigenvalues and eigenvectors are computed.

range

CHARACTER*1. Must be 'A' or 'V' or 'I'.

If range = 'A', the routine computes all eigenvalues.

If range = 'V', the routine computes eigenvalues w(i)in the half-open interval:

vl<w(i)vu.

If range = 'I', the routine computes eigenvalues with indices il to iu.

For range = 'V'or 'I' and iu-il < n-1, sstebz/dstebz and sstein/dstein are called.

n

INTEGER. The order of the matrix T (n 0).

d, e, work

REAL for sstevr

DOUBLE PRECISION for dstevr.

Arrays:

d(*) contains the n diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix T.

The dimension of d must be at least max(1, n).

e(*)contains the n-1 subdiagonal elements of A.

The dimension of e must be at least max(1, n-1). The n-th element of this array is used as workspace.

work is a workspace array, its dimension max(1, lwork).

vl, vu

REAL for sstevr

DOUBLE PRECISION for dstevr.

If range = 'V', the lower and upper bounds of the interval to be searched for eigenvalues.

Constraint: vl< vu.

If range = 'A' or 'I', vl and vu are not referenced.

il, iu

INTEGER.

If range = 'I', the indices in ascending order of the smallest and largest eigenvalues to be returned.

Constraint: 1 iliun, if n > 0; il=1 and iu=0 if n = 0.

If range = 'A' or 'V', il and iu are not referenced.

abstol

REAL for sstevr

DOUBLE PRECISION for dstevr.

The absolute error tolerance to which each eigenvalue/eigenvector is required.

If jobz = 'V', the eigenvalues and eigenvectors output have residual norms bounded by abstol, and the dot products between different eigenvectors are bounded by abstol. If abstol < n *eps*||T||, then n *eps*||T|| will be used in its place, where eps is the machine precision, and ||T|| is the 1-norm of the matrix T. The eigenvalues are computed to an accuracy of eps*||T|| irrespective of abstol.

If high relative accuracy is important, set abstol to ?lamch('S').

ldz

INTEGER. The leading dimension of the output array z.

Constraints:

ldz 1 if jobz = 'N';

ldz max(1, n) if jobz = 'V'.

lwork

INTEGER.

The dimension of the array work. Constraint:

lwork max(1, 20*n).

If lwork = -1, then a workspace query is assumed; the routine only calculates the required sizes of the work and iwork arrays, returns these values as the first entries of the work and iwork arrays, and no error message related to lwork or liwork is issued by xerbla. See Application Notes for details.

iwork

INTEGER.

Workspace array, its dimension max(1, liwork).

liwork

INTEGER.

The dimension of the array iwork,

lwork max(1, 10*n).

If liwork = -1, then a workspace query is assumed; the routine only calculates the required sizes of the work and iwork arrays, returns these values as the first entries of the work and iwork arrays, and no error message related to lwork or liwork is issued by xerbla. See Application Notes for details.

Output Parameters
m

INTEGER. The total number of eigenvalues found,

0 mn. If range = 'A', m = n, if range = 'I', m = iu-il+1, and if range = 'V' the exact value of m is unknown..

w, z

REAL for sstevr

DOUBLE PRECISION for dstevr.

Arrays:

w(*), size at least max(1, n).

The first m elements of w contain the selected eigenvalues of the matrix T in ascending order.

z(ldz,*).

The second dimension of z must be at least max(1, m).

If jobz = 'V', then if info = 0, the first m columns of z contain the orthonormal eigenvectors of the matrix T corresponding to the selected eigenvalues, with the i-th column of z holding the eigenvector associated with w(i).

If jobz = 'N', then z is not referenced.

Note: you must ensure that at least max(1,m) columns are supplied in the array z; if range = 'V', the exact value of m is not known in advance and an upper bound must be used.

d, e

On exit, these arrays may be multiplied by a constant factor chosen to avoid overflow or underflow in computing the eigenvalues.

isuppz

INTEGER.

Array, size at least 2 *max(1, m).

The support of the eigenvectors in z, i.e., the indices indicating the nonzero elements in z. The i-th eigenvector is nonzero only in elements isuppz( 2i-1) through isuppz(2i).

Implemented only for range = 'A' or 'I' and iu-il = n-1.

work(1)

On exit, if info = 0, then work(1) returns the required minimal size of lwork.

iwork(1)

On exit, if info = 0, then iwork(1) returns the required minimal size of liwork.

info

INTEGER.

If info = 0, the execution is successful.

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

If info = i, an internal error has occurred.

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 restorable arguments, see LAPACK 95 Interface Conventions.

Specific details for the routine stevr interface are the following:

d

Holds the vector of length n.

e

Holds the vector of length n.

w

Holds the vector of length n.

z

Holds the matrix Z of size (n, n), where the values n and m are significant.

isuppz

Holds the vector of length (2*n), where the values (2*m) are significant.

vl

Default value for this element is vl = -HUGE(vl).

vu

Default value for this element is vu = HUGE(vl).

il

Default value for this argument is il = 1.

iu

Default value for this argument is iu = n.

abstol

Default value for this element is abstol = 0.0_WP.

jobz

Restored based on the presence of the argument z as follows:

jobz = 'V', if z is present,

jobz = 'N', if z is omitted

Note that there will be an error condition if ifail is present and z is omitted.

range

Restored based on the presence of arguments vl, vu, il, iu as follows:

range = 'V', if one of or both vl and vu are present,

range = 'I', if one of or both il and iu are present,

range = 'A', if none of vl, vu, il, iu is present,

Note that there will be an error condition if one of or both vl and vu are present and at the same time one of or both il and iu are present.

Application Notes

Normal execution of the routine ?stegr may create NaNs and infinities and hence may abort due to a floating point exception in environments which do not handle NaNs and infinities in the IEEE standard default manner.

If it is not clear how much workspace to supply, use a generous value of lwork (or liwork) for the first run, or set lwork = -1 (liwork = -1).

If lwork (or liwork) has any of admissible sizes, which is no less than the minimal value described, then the routine completes the task, though probably not so fast as with a recommended workspace, and provides the recommended workspace in the first element of the corresponding array (work, iwork) on exit. Use this value (work(1), iwork(1)) for subsequent runs.

If lwork = -1 (liwork = -1), then the routine returns immediately and provides the recommended workspace in the first element of the corresponding array (work, iwork). This operation is called a workspace query.

Note that if lwork (liwork) is less than the minimal required value and is not equal to -1, then the routine returns immediately with an error exit and does not provide any information on the recommended workspace.
