DPBSV(3F)DPBSV(3F)NAME
DPBSV - compute the solution to a real system of linear equations A * X
= B,
SYNOPSIS
SUBROUTINE DPBSV( UPLO, N, KD, NRHS, AB, LDAB, B, LDB, INFO )
CHARACTER UPLO
INTEGER INFO, KD, LDAB, LDB, N, NRHS
DOUBLE PRECISION AB( LDAB, * ), B( LDB, * )
PURPOSE
DPBSV computes the solution to a real system of linear equations
A * X = B, where A is an N-by-N symmetric positive definite band
matrix and X and B are N-by-NRHS matrices.
The Cholesky decomposition is used to factor A as
A = U**T * U, if UPLO = 'U', or
A = L * L**T, if UPLO = 'L',
where U is an upper triangular band matrix, and L is a lower triangular
band matrix, with the same number of superdiagonals or subdiagonals as A.
The factored form of A is then used to solve the system of equations A *
X = B.
ARGUMENTS
UPLO (input) CHARACTER*1
= 'U': Upper triangle of A is stored;
= 'L': Lower triangle of A is stored.
N (input) INTEGER
The number of linear equations, i.e., the order of the matrix A.
N >= 0.
KD (input) INTEGER
The number of superdiagonals of the matrix A if UPLO = 'U', or
the number of subdiagonals if UPLO = 'L'. KD >= 0.
NRHS (input) INTEGER
The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns of
the matrix B. NRHS >= 0.
AB (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION 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 max(1,j-
KD)<=i<=j; if UPLO = 'L', AB(1+i-j,j) = A(i,j) for
j<=i<=min(N,j+KD). See below for further details.

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 (input) INTEGER
The leading dimension of the array AB. LDAB >= KD+1.
B (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)
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 of A is not
positive definite, so the factorization could not be completed,
and the solution has not been computed.
FURTHER DETAILS
The band storage scheme is illustrated by the following example, when N =
6, KD = 2, and UPLO = 'U':
On entry: On exit:
* * a13 a24 a35 a46 * * u13 u24 u35 u46
* a12 a23 a34 a45 a56 * u12 u23 u34 u45 u56
a11 a22 a33 a44 a55 a66 u11 u22 u33 u44 u55 u66
Similarly, if UPLO = 'L' the format of A is as follows:
On entry: On exit:
a11 a22 a33 a44 a55 a66 l11 l22 l33 l44 l55 l66
a21 a32 a43 a54 a65 * l21 l32 l43 l54 l65 *
a31 a42 a53 a64 * * l31 l42 l53 l64 * *
Array elements marked * are not used by the routine.
