DSYCON(3) LAPACK routine of NEC Numeric Library Collection DSYCON(3) NAME DSYCON SYNOPSIS SUBROUTINE DSYCON (UPLO, N, A, LDA, IPIV, ANORM, RCOND, WORK, IWORK, INFO) PURPOSE DSYCON estimates the reciprocal of the condition number (in the 1-norm) of a real symmetric matrix A using the factorization A = U*D*U**T or A = L*D*L**T computed by DSYTRF. An estimate is obtained for norm(inv(A)), and the reciprocal of the condition number is computed as RCOND = 1 / (ANORM * norm(inv(A))). ARGUMENTS UPLO (input) UPLO is CHARACTER*1 Specifies whether the details of the factorization are stored as an upper or lower triangular matrix. = 'U': Upper triangular, form is A = U*D*U**T; = 'L': Lower triangular, form is A = L*D*L**T. N (input) N is INTEGER The order of the matrix A. N >= 0. A (input) A is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDA,N) The block diagonal matrix D and the multipliers used to obtain the factor U or L as computed by DSYTRF. LDA (input) LDA is INTEGER The leading dimension of the array A. LDA >= max(1,N). IPIV (input) IPIV is INTEGER array, dimension (N) Details of the interchanges and the block structure of D as determined by DSYTRF. ANORM (input) ANORM is DOUBLE PRECISION The 1-norm of the original matrix A. RCOND (output) RCOND is DOUBLE PRECISION The reciprocal of the condition number of the matrix A, computed as RCOND = 1/(ANORM * AINVNM), where AINVNM is an estimate of the 1-norm of inv(A) computed in this routine. WORK (output) WORK is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (2*N) IWORK (output) IWORK is INTEGER 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 DSYCON(3)
