Description

sspev dspev spev

The routine computes all the eigenvalues and, optionally, eigenvectors of a real symmetric matrix A in packed storage.

Input Parameters

jobz

CHARACTER*1 . Must be ‘N’ or ‘V’ .

If job = 'N' , then only eigenvalues are computed. If job = 'V' , then eigenvalues and eigenvectors are computed.

uplo

CHARACTER*1 . Must be ‘U’ or ‘L’ .

If uplo = 'U' , ap stores the packed upper triangular part of A . If uplo = 'L' , ap stores the packed lower triangular part of A .

n

INTEGER . The order of the matrix A ( n≥ 0 ).

ap , work: REAL for sspev DOUBLE PRECISION for dspev Arrays: Array ap(*) contains the packed upper or lower triangle of symmetric matrix A , as specified by uplo . The size of ap must be at least max(1, n *( n +1)/2). work (*) is a workspace array, size at least max(1, 3 n ).

ldz

INTEGER . The leading dimension of the output array z . Constraints:

if jobz = 'N' , then ldz≥ 1 ; if jobz = 'V' , then ldz≥ max(1, n) .

Output Parameters

w , z

REAL for sspev DOUBLE PRECISION for dspev Arrays: w(*) , size at least max(1, n ). If info = 0 , w contains the eigenvalues of the matrix A in ascending order.

z ( ldz ,*) . The second dimension of z must be at least max(1, n ).

If jobz = 'V' , then if info = 0 , z contains the orthonormal eigenvectors of the matrix A , with the i -th column of z holding the eigenvector associated with w(i)w[i - 1] . If jobz = 'N' , then z is not referenced.

ap

On exit, this array is overwritten by the values generated during the reduction to tridiagonal form. The elements of the diagonal and the off-diagonal of the tridiagonal matrix overwrite the corresponding elements of A .

info

INTEGER .

If info = 0 , the execution is successful.
If info = -i , the i- th parameter had an illegal value.
If info = i , then the algorithm failed to converge; i indicates the number of elements of an intermediate tridiagonal form which did not converge to zero.

Return Values

No return value, info is an Output Parameter.

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 spev interface are the following:

ap

Holds the array A of size ( n*(n+1)/2 ).

w

Holds the vector with the number of elements n .

z

Holds the matrix Z of size ( n , n ).

uplo

Must be ‘U’ or ‘L’ . The default value is ‘U’ .

jobz

Restored based on the presence of the argument z as follows: jobz = 'V' , if z is present, jobz = 'N' , if z is omitted.
