?pftrs

Solves a system of linear equations with a Cholesky-factored symmetric (Hermitian) positive-definite matrix using the Rectangular Full Packed (RFP) format.

Syntax

FORTRAN 77:

call spftrs( transr, uplo, n, nrhs, a, b, ldb, info )

call dpftrs( transr, uplo, n, nrhs, a, b, ldb, info )

call cpftrs( transr, uplo, n, nrhs, a, b, ldb, info )

call zpftrs( transr, uplo, n, nrhs, a, b, ldb, info )

C:

lapack_int LAPACKE_<?>pftrs( int matrix_order, char transr, char uplo, lapack_int n, lapack_int nrhs, const <datatype>* a, <datatype>* b, lapack_int ldb );

Description

The routine solves a system of linear equations A*X = B with a symmetric positive-definite or, for complex data, Hermitian positive-definite matrix A using 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'

computed by ?pftrf. L stands for a lower triangular matrix and U - for an upper triangular matrix.

The matrix A is in the Rectangular Full Packed (RFP) format. For the description of the RFP format, see Matrix Storage Schemes.

Input Parameters

The data types are given for the Fortran interface. A <datatype> placeholder, if present, is used for the C interface data types in the C interface section above. See C Interface Conventions for the C interface principal conventions and type definitions.

transr

CHARACTER*1. Must be 'N', 'T' (for real data) or 'C' (for complex data).

If transr = 'N', the Normal transr of RFP A is stored.

If transr = 'T', the Transpose transr of RFP A is stored.

If transr = 'C', the Conjugate-Transpose transr of RFP A is stored.

uplo

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

Indicates whether the upper or lower triangular part of the RFP matrix A is stored:

If uplo = 'U', the array a stores the upper triangular part of the matrix A.

If uplo = 'L', the array a stores the lower triangular part of the matrix A.

n

INTEGER. The order of the matrix A; n 0.

nrhs

INTEGER. The number of right-hand sides, that is, the number of columns of the matrix B; nrhs 0.

a, b

REAL for spftrs

DOUBLE PRECISION for dpftrs

COMPLEX for cpftrs

DOUBLE COMPLEX for zpftrs.

Arrays: a(n*(n+1)/2), b(ldb,nrhs). The array a contains the matrix A in the RFP format.

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

ldb

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

Output Parameters

b

The solution matrix X.

info

INTEGER. If info=0, the execution is successful.

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