CTRRFS(3) LAPACK routine of NEC Numeric Library Collection CTRRFS(3) NAME CTRRFS SYNOPSIS SUBROUTINE CTRRFS (UPLO, TRANS, DIAG, N, NRHS, A, LDA, B, LDB, X, LDX, FERR, BERR, WORK, RWORK, INFO) PURPOSE CTRRFS provides error bounds and backward error estimates for the solution to a system of linear equations with a triangular coefficient matrix. The solution matrix X must be computed by CTRTRS or some other means before entering this routine. CTRRFS does not do iterative refinement because doing so cannot improve the backward error. ARGUMENTS UPLO (input) UPLO is CHARACTER*1 = 'U': A is upper triangular; = 'L': A is lower triangular. TRANS (input) TRANS is CHARACTER*1 Specifies the form of the system of equations: = 'N': A * X = B (No transpose) = 'T': A**T * X = B (Transpose) = 'C': A**H * X = B (Conjugate transpose) DIAG (input) DIAG is CHARACTER*1 = 'N': A is non-unit triangular; = 'U': A is unit triangular. N (input) N is INTEGER The order of the matrix A. N >= 0. NRHS (input) NRHS is INTEGER The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns of the matrices B and X. NRHS >= 0. A (input) A is COMPLEX array, dimension (LDA,N) The triangular matrix A. If UPLO = 'U', the leading N-by-N upper triangular part of the array A contains the upper triangular matrix, and the strictly lower triangular part of A is not referenced. If UPLO = 'L', the leading N-by-N lower triangular part of the array A contains the lower triangular matrix, and the strictly upper triangular part of A is not referenced. If DIAG = 'U', the diagonal elements of A are also not referenced and are assumed to be 1. LDA (input) LDA is INTEGER The leading dimension of the array A. LDA >= max(1,N). B (input) B is COMPLEX array, dimension (LDB,NRHS) The right hand side matrix B. LDB (input) LDB is INTEGER The leading dimension of the array B. LDB >= max(1,N). X (input) X is COMPLEX array, dimension (LDX,NRHS) The solution matrix X. LDX (input) LDX is INTEGER The leading dimension of the array X. LDX >= max(1,N). FERR (output) FERR is REAL array, dimension (NRHS) The estimated forward error bound for each solution vector X(j) (the j-th column of the solution matrix X). If XTRUE is the true solution corresponding to X(j), FERR(j) is an estimated upper bound for the magnitude of the largest element in (X(j) - XTRUE) divided by the magnitude of the largest element in X(j). The estimate is as reliable as the estimate for RCOND, and is almost always a slight overestimate of the true error. BERR (output) BERR is REAL array, dimension (NRHS) The componentwise relative backward error of each solution vector X(j) (i.e., the smallest relative change in any element of A or B that makes X(j) an exact solution). WORK (output) WORK is COMPLEX array, dimension (2*N) RWORK (output) RWORK is REAL array, dimension (N) INFO (output) INFO is INTEGER = 0: successful exit < 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value LAPACK routine 31 October 2017 CTRRFS(3)
