DLAQPS(3) LAPACK routine of NEC Numeric Library Collection DLAQPS(3) NAME DLAQPS SYNOPSIS SUBROUTINE DLAQPS (M, N, OFFSET, NB, KB, A, LDA, JPVT, TAU, VN1, VN2, AUXV, F, LDF) PURPOSE DLAQPS computes a step of QR factorization with column pivoting of a real M-by-N matrix A by using Blas-3. It tries to factorize NB columns from A starting from the row OFFSET+1, and updates all of the matrix with Blas-3 xGEMM. In some cases, due to catastrophic cancellations, it cannot factorize NB columns. Hence, the actual number of factorized columns is returned in KB. Block A(1:OFFSET,1:N) is accordingly pivoted, but not factorized. ARGUMENTS M (input) M is INTEGER The number of rows of the matrix A. M >= 0. N (input) N is INTEGER The number of columns of the matrix A. N >= 0 OFFSET (input) OFFSET is INTEGER The number of rows of A that have been factorized in previous steps. NB (input) NB is INTEGER The number of columns to factorize. KB (output) KB is INTEGER The number of columns actually factorized. A (input/output) A is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDA,N) On entry, the M-by-N matrix A. On exit, block A(OFFSET+1:M,1:KB) is the triangular factor obtained and block A(1:OFFSET,1:N) has been accordingly pivoted, but no factorized. The rest of the matrix, block A(OFFSET+1:M,KB+1:N) has been updated. LDA (input) LDA is INTEGER The leading dimension of the array A. LDA >= max(1,M). JPVT (input/output) JPVT is INTEGER array, dimension (N) JPVT(I) = K <==> Column K of the full matrix A has been permuted into position I in AP. TAU (output) TAU is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (KB) The scalar factors of the elementary reflectors. VN1 (input/output) VN1 is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (N) The vector with the partial column norms. VN2 (input/output) VN2 is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (N) The vector with the exact column norms. AUXV (input/output) AUXV is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (NB) Auxiliar vector. F (input/output) F is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDF,NB) Matrix F**T = L*Y**T*A. LDF (input) LDF is INTEGER The leading dimension of the array F. LDF >= max(1,N).
