NAME
       SSYTD2

SYNOPSIS
       SUBROUTINE SSYTD2 (UPLO, N, A, LDA, D, E, TAU, INFO)



PURPOSE
            SSYTD2 reduces a real symmetric matrix A to symmetric tridiagonal
            form T by an orthogonal similarity transformation: Q**T * A * Q = T.




ARGUMENTS
           UPLO      (input)
                     UPLO is CHARACTER*1
                     Specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of the
                     symmetric matrix A is stored:
                     = 'U':  Upper triangular
                     = 'L':  Lower triangular

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

           A         (input/output)
                     A is REAL array, dimension (LDA,N)
                     On entry, the symmetric matrix A.  If UPLO = 'U', the leading
                     n-by-n upper triangular part of A contains the upper
                     triangular part of the matrix A, and the strictly lower
                     triangular part of A is not referenced.  If UPLO = 'L', the
                     leading n-by-n lower triangular part of A contains the lower
                     triangular part of the matrix A, and the strictly upper
                     triangular part of A is not referenced.
                     On exit, if UPLO = 'U', the diagonal and first superdiagonal
                     of A are overwritten by the corresponding elements of the
                     tridiagonal matrix T, and the elements above the first
                     superdiagonal, with the array TAU, represent the orthogonal
                     matrix Q as a product of elementary reflectors; if UPLO
                     = 'L', the diagonal and first subdiagonal of A are over-
                     written by the corresponding elements of the tridiagonal
                     matrix T, and the elements below the first subdiagonal, with
                     the array TAU, represent the orthogonal matrix Q as a product
                     of elementary reflectors. See Further Details.

           LDA       (input)
                     LDA is INTEGER
                     The leading dimension of the array A.  LDA >= max(1,N).

           D         (output)
                     D is REAL array, dimension (N)
                     The diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix T:
                     D(i) = A(i,i).

           E         (output)
                     E is REAL array, dimension (N-1)
                     The off-diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix T:
                     E(i) = A(i,i+1) if UPLO = 'U', E(i) = A(i+1,i) if UPLO = 'L'.

           TAU       (output)
                     TAU is REAL array, dimension (N-1)
                     The scalar factors of the elementary reflectors (see Further
                     Details).

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






FURTHER DETAILS
             If UPLO = 'U', the matrix Q is represented as a product of elementary
             reflectors

                Q = H(n-1) . . . H(2) H(1).

             Each H(i) has the form

                H(i) = I - tau * v * v**T

             where tau is a real scalar, and v is a real vector with
             v(i+1:n) = 0 and v(i) = 1; v(1:i-1) is stored on exit in
             A(1:i-1,i+1), and tau in TAU(i).

             If UPLO = 'L', the matrix Q is represented as a product of elementary
             reflectors

                Q = H(1) H(2) . . . H(n-1).

             Each H(i) has the form

                H(i) = I - tau * v * v**T

             where tau is a real scalar, and v is a real vector with
             v(1:i) = 0 and v(i+1) = 1; v(i+2:n) is stored on exit in A(i+2:n,i),
             and tau in TAU(i).

             The contents of A on exit are illustrated by the following examples
             with n = 5:

             if UPLO = 'U':                       if UPLO = 'L':

               (  d   e   v2  v3  v4 )              (  d                  )
               (      d   e   v3  v4 )              (  e   d              )
               (          d   e   v4 )              (  v1  e   d          )
               (              d   e  )              (  v1  v2  e   d      )
               (                  d  )              (  v1  v2  v3  e   d  )

             where d and e denote diagonal and off-diagonal elements of T, and vi
             denotes an element of the vector defining H(i).
