NAME

CHETD2 - reduces a complex Hermitian matrix A to real symmetric tridiagonal form T by a unitary similarity transformation

SYNOPSIS

SUBROUTINE CHETD2(
UPLO, N, A, LDA, D, E, TAU, INFO )

INTEGER INFO, LDA, N

    
REAL D( * ), E( * )

    
COMPLEX A( LDA, * ), TAU( * )

PURPOSE

CHETD2 reduces a complex Hermitian matrix A to real symmetric tridiagonal form T by a unitary similarity transformation: Qaq * A * Q = T.

ARGUMENTS

UPLO (input) CHARACTER*1
Specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of the Hermitian matrix A is stored:
= aqUaq: Upper triangular
= aqLaq: Lower triangular
N (input) INTEGER
The order of the matrix A. N >= 0.
A (input/output) COMPLEX array, dimension (LDA,N)
On entry, the Hermitian matrix A. If UPLO = aqUaq, the leading n-by-n upper triangular part of A contains the upper triangular part of the matrix A, and the strictly lower triangular part of A is not referenced. If UPLO = aqLaq, the leading n-by-n lower triangular part of A contains the lower triangular part of the matrix A, and the strictly upper triangular part of A is not referenced. On exit, if UPLO = aqUaq, the diagonal and first superdiagonal of A are overwritten by the corresponding elements of the tridiagonal matrix T, and the elements above the first superdiagonal, with the array TAU, represent the unitary matrix Q as a product of elementary reflectors; if UPLO = aqLaq, the diagonal and first subdiagonal of A are over- written by the corresponding elements of the tridiagonal matrix T, and the elements below the first subdiagonal, with the array TAU, represent the unitary matrix Q as a product of elementary reflectors. See Further Details. LDA (input) INTEGER The leading dimension of the array A. LDA >= max(1,N).
D (output) REAL array, dimension (N)
The diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix T: D(i) = A(i,i).
E (output) REAL array, dimension (N-1)
The off-diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix T: E(i) = A(i,i+1) if UPLO = aqUaq, E(i) = A(i+1,i) if UPLO = aqLaq.
TAU (output) COMPLEX array, dimension (N-1)
The scalar factors of the elementary reflectors (see Further Details).
INFO (output) INTEGER
= 0: successful exit
< 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value.

FURTHER DETAILS

If UPLO = aqUaq, the matrix Q is represented as a product of elementary reflectors

H(n-1) . . . H(2) H(1).
Each H(i) has the form

H(i) I - tau vaq
where tau is a complex scalar, and v is a complex vector with v(i+1:n) = 0 and v(i) = 1; v(1:i-1) is stored on exit in
A(1:i-1,i+1), and tau in TAU(i).
If UPLO = aqLaq, the matrix Q is represented as a product of elementary reflectors

H(1) H(2) . . . H(n-1).
Each H(i) has the form

H(i) I - tau vaq
where tau is a complex scalar, and v is a complex vector with v(1:i) = 0 and v(i+1) = 1; v(i+2:n) is stored on exit in A(i+2:n,i), and tau in TAU(i).
The contents of A on exit are illustrated by the following examples with n = 5:
if UPLO = aqUaq: if UPLO = aqLaq:

       v2  v3  v4                                )
           v3  v4                              )
               v4               v1             )
                                v1  v2         )
                                  v1  v2  v3     ) where d and e denote diagonal and off-diagonal elements of T, and vi denotes an element of the vector defining H(i).
