DPOTRF(1) LAPACK routine (version 3.2) DPOTRF(1)NAME
DPOTRF - computes the Cholesky factorization of a real symmetric posi‐
tive definite matrix A
SYNOPSIS
SUBROUTINE DPOTRF( UPLO, N, A, LDA, INFO )
CHARACTER UPLO
INTEGER INFO, LDA, N
DOUBLE PRECISION A( LDA, * )
PURPOSE
DPOTRF computes the Cholesky factorization of a real symmetric positive
definite 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. This
is the block version of the algorithm, calling Level 3 BLAS.
ARGUMENTS
UPLO (input) CHARACTER*1
= 'U': Upper triangle of A is stored;
= 'L': Lower triangle of A is stored.
N (input) INTEGER
The order of the matrix A. N >= 0.
A (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION 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 INFO = 0, the factor U or L from the
Cholesky factorization A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T.
LDA (input) INTEGER
The leading dimension of the array A. LDA >= 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 factorization could not be completed.
