PPTRI computes the inverse of a real symmetric matrix.

Purpose:

    PPTRI computes the inverse of a real symmetric positive definite
    matrix A using the Cholesky factorization A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T
    computed by PPTRF.
Parameters:
  • UPLO[in]

    UPLO is CHARACTER*1

    = ‘U’: Upper triangular factor is stored in AP;

    = ‘L’: Lower triangular factor is stored in AP.
  • N[in]

    N is INTEGER

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

  • AP[inout]

    AP is REAL array, dimension (N*(N+1)/2)

    On entry, the triangular factor U or L from the Cholesky factorization A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T, packed columnwise as a linear array. The j-th column of U or L is stored in the array AP as follows:

    if UPLO = ‘U’, AP(i + (j-1)*j/2) = U(i,j) for 1<=i<=j;

    if UPLO = ‘L’, AP(i + (j-1)*(2n-j)/2) = L(i,j) for j<=i<=n.

    On exit, the upper or lower triangle of the (symmetric) inverse of A, overwriting the input factor U or L.
  • 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 (i,i) element of the factor U or L is zero, and the inverse could not be computed.
