SPPEQU(3)      LAPACK routine of NEC Numeric Library Collection      SPPEQU(3)



NAME
       SPPEQU

SYNOPSIS
       SUBROUTINE SPPEQU (UPLO, N, AP, S, SCOND, AMAX, INFO)



PURPOSE
            SPPEQU computes row and column scalings intended to equilibrate a
            symmetric positive definite matrix A in packed storage and reduce
            its condition number (with respect to the two-norm).  S contains the
            scale factors, S(i)=1/sqrt(A(i,i)), chosen so that the scaled matrix
            B with elements B(i,j)=S(i)*A(i,j)*S(j) has ones on the diagonal.
            This choice of S puts the condition number of B within a factor N of
            the smallest possible condition number over all possible diagonal
            scalings.




ARGUMENTS
           UPLO      (input)
                     UPLO is CHARACTER*1
                     = 'U':  Upper triangle of A is stored;
                     = 'L':  Lower triangle of A is stored.

           N         (input)
                     N is INTEGER
                     The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.

           AP        (input)
                     AP is REAL array, dimension (N*(N+1)/2)
                     The upper or lower triangle of the symmetric matrix A, packed
                     columnwise in a linear array.  The j-th column of A is stored
                     in the array AP as follows:
                     if UPLO = 'U', AP(i + (j-1)*j/2) = A(i,j) for 1<=i<=j;
                     if UPLO = 'L', AP(i + (j-1)*(2n-j)/2) = A(i,j) for j<=i<=n.

           S         (output)
                     S is REAL array, dimension (N)
                     If INFO = 0, S contains the scale factors for A.

           SCOND     (output)
                     SCOND is REAL
                     If INFO = 0, S contains the ratio of the smallest S(i) to
                     the largest S(i).  If SCOND >= 0.1 and AMAX is neither too
                     large nor too small, it is not worth scaling by S.

           AMAX      (output)
                     AMAX is REAL
                     Absolute value of largest matrix element.  If AMAX is very
                     close to overflow or very close to underflow, the matrix
                     should be scaled.

           INFO      (output)
                     INFO is INTEGER
                     = 0:  successful exit
                     < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
                     > 0:  if INFO = i, the i-th diagonal element is nonpositive.
