NAME

CLASYF - compute a partial factorization of a complex sym

metric matrix A using the Bunch-Kaufman diagonal pivoting method

SYNOPSIS

SUBROUTINE  CLASYF( UPLO, N, NB, KB, A, LDA, IPIV, W, LDW,
INFO )
    CHARACTER      UPLO
    INTEGER        INFO, KB, LDA, LDW, N, NB
    INTEGER        IPIV( * )
    COMPLEX        A( LDA, * ), W( LDW, * )

PURPOSE

CLASYF computes a partial factorization of a complex sym

metric matrix A using the Bunch-Kaufman diagonal pivoting method.

The partial factorization has the form:

A = ( I U12 ) ( A11 0 ) ( I 0 ) if UPLO = 'U',

or:

( 0 U22 ) ( 0 D ) ( U12' U22' )

A = ( L11 0 ) ( D 0 ) ( L11' L21' ) if UPLO = 'L'

( L21 I ) ( 0 A22 ) ( 0 I )

where the order of D is at most NB. The actual order is

returned in the argument KB, and is either NB or NB-1, or N if N

<= NB. Note that U' denotes the transpose of U.

CLASYF is an auxiliary routine called by CSYTRF. It uses

blocked code (calling Level 3 BLAS) to update the submatrix A11

(if UPLO = 'U') or A22 (if UPLO = 'L').

ARGUMENTS

UPLO (input) CHARACTER*1

Specifies whether the upper or lower triangular

part of the symmetric matrix A is stored:
= 'U': Upper triangular
= 'L': Lower triangular

N (input) INTEGER

The order of the matrix A. N >= 0.

NB (input) INTEGER

The maximum number of columns of the matrix A that

should be factored. NB should be at least 2 to allow for 2-by-2

pivot blocks.

KB (output) INTEGER

The number of columns of A that were actually fac

tored. KB is either NB-1 or NB, or N if N <= NB.

A (input/output) COMPLEX array, dimension (LDA,N)

On entry, the symmetric matrix A. If UPLO = 'U',

the leading n-by-n upper triangular part of A contains the upper

triangular part of the matrix A, and the strictly lower triangu

lar part of A is not referenced. If UPLO = 'L', 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, A contains details of the partial

factorization.

LDA (input) INTEGER

The leading dimension of the array A. LDA >=

max(1,N).

IPIV (output) INTEGER array, dimension (N)

Details of the interchanges and the block struc

ture of D. If UPLO = 'U', only the last KB elements of IPIV are

set; if UPLO = 'L', only the first KB elements are set.

If IPIV(k) > 0, then rows and columns k and IP

IV(k) were interchanged and D(k,k) is a 1-by-1 diagonal block.

If UPLO = 'U' and IPIV(k) = IPIV(k-1) < 0, then rows and columns

k-1 and -IPIV(k) were interchanged and D(k-1:k,k-1:k) is a 2-by-2

diagonal block. If UPLO = 'L' and IPIV(k) = IPIV(k+1) < 0, then

rows and columns k+1 and -IPIV(k) were interchanged and

D(k:k+1,k:k+1) is a 2-by-2 diagonal block.

W (workspace) COMPLEX array, dimension (LDW,NB)

LDW (input) INTEGER

The leading dimension of the array W. LDW >=

max(1,N).

INFO (output) INTEGER

= 0: successful exit
> 0: if INFO = k, D(k,k) is exactly zero. The

factorization has been completed, but the block diagonal matrix D

is exactly singular.
