DPTSV (3lapack)

compute the solution to a real system of linear equations A*X = B, where A is an N-by-N symmetric positive definite tridiagonal matrix, and X and B are N-by-NRHS matrices

SYNOPSIS

  SUBROUTINE DPTSV( N, NRHS, D, E, B, LDB, INFO )

      INTEGER       INFO, LDB, N, NRHS

      DOUBLE        PRECISION B( LDB, * ), D( * ), E( * )

PURPOSE

  DPTSV computes the solution to a real system of linear equations A*X = B,
  where A is an N-by-N symmetric positive definite tridiagonal matrix, and X
  and B are N-by-NRHS matrices.

  A is factored as A = L*D*L**T, and the factored form of A is then used to
  solve the system of equations.

ARGUMENTS

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

  NRHS    (input) INTEGER
          The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns of the
          matrix B.  NRHS >= 0.

  D       (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (N)
          On entry, the n diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix A.  On
          exit, the n diagonal elements of the diagonal matrix D from the
          factorization A = L*D*L**T.

  E       (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (N-1)
          On entry, the (n-1) subdiagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix
          A.  On exit, the (n-1) subdiagonal elements of the unit bidiagonal
          factor L from the L*D*L**T factorization of A.  (E can also be
          regarded as the superdiagonal of the unit bidiagonal factor U from
          the U**T*D*U factorization of A.)

  B       (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDB,N)
          On entry, the N-by-NRHS right hand side matrix B.  On exit, if INFO
          = 0, the N-by-NRHS solution matrix X.

  LDB     (input) INTEGER
          The leading dimension of the array B.  LDB >= max(1,N).

  INFO    (output) 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 solution has not been computed.  The
          factorization has not been completed unless i = N.
