PBTRF computes the Cholesky factorization of a real symmetric

positive definite band matrix A.

Purpose:

    PBTRF computes the Cholesky factorization of a real symmetric
    positive definite band matrix A.

    The factorization has the form
       A = U**T * U,  if UPLO = 'U', or
       A = L  * L**T,  if UPLO = 'L',
    where U is an upper triangular matrix and L is lower triangular.
Parameters:
  • UPLO[in]

    UPLO is CHARACTER*1

    = ‘U’: Upper triangle of A is stored;

    = ‘L’: Lower triangle of A is stored.
  • N[in]

    N is INTEGER

    The order of the matrix A. N >= 0.

  • KD[in]

    KD is INTEGER

    The number of superdiagonals of the matrix A if UPLO = ‘U’, or the number of subdiagonals if UPLO = ‘L’. KD >= 0.

  • AB[inout]

    AB is REAL array, dimension (LDAB,N)

    On entry, the upper or lower triangle of the symmetric band matrix A, stored in the first KD+1 rows of the array. The j-th column of A is stored in the j-th column of the array AB as follows:

    if UPLO = ‘U’, AB(kd+1+i-j,j) = A(i,j) for fla_max(1,j-kd)<=i<=j;

    if UPLO = ‘L’, AB(1+i-j,j) = A(i,j) for j<=i<=min(n,j+kd).

    On exit, if INFO = 0, the triangular factor U or L from the Cholesky factorization A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T of the band matrix A, in the same storage format as A.
  • LDAB[in]

    LDAB is INTEGER

    The leading dimension of the array AB. LDAB >= KD+1.

  • INFO[out]

    INFO is INTEGER

    = 0: successful exit

    < 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value

    > 0: if INFO = i, the leading minor of order i is not positive definite, and the factorization could not be completed.
