## Detailed Description

## Function Documentation

### subroutine cgeevx (character balanc, character jobvl, character jobvr, character sense, integer n, complex, dimension( lda, \* ) a, integer lda, complex, dimension( \* ) w, complex, dimension( ldvl, \* ) vl, integer ldvl, complex, dimension( ldvr, \* ) vr, integer ldvr, integer ilo, integer ihi, real, dimension( \* ) scale, real abnrm, real, dimension( \* ) rconde, real, dimension( \* ) rcondv, complex, dimension( \* ) work, integer lwork, real, dimension( \* ) rwork, integer info)

 **CGEEVX computes the eigenvalues and, optionally, the left and/or right eigenvectors for GE matrices**

**Purpose:**

```
!>
!> CGEEVX computes for an N-by-N complex nonsymmetric matrix A, the
!> eigenvalues and, optionally, the left and/or right eigenvectors.
!>
!> Optionally also, it computes a balancing transformation to improve
!> the conditioning of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors (ILO, IHI,
!> SCALE, and ABNRM), reciprocal condition numbers for the eigenvalues
!> (RCONDE), and reciprocal condition numbers for the right
!> eigenvectors (RCONDV).
!>
!> The right eigenvector v(j) of A satisfies
!>                  A * v(j) = lambda(j) * v(j)
!> where lambda(j) is its eigenvalue.
!> The left eigenvector u(j) of A satisfies
!>               u(j)**H * A = lambda(j) * u(j)**H
!> where u(j)**H denotes the conjugate transpose of u(j).
!>
!> The computed eigenvectors are normalized to have Euclidean norm
!> equal to 1 and largest component real.
!>
!> Balancing a matrix means permuting the rows and columns to make it
!> more nearly upper triangular, and applying a diagonal similarity
!> transformation D * A * D**(-1), where D is a diagonal matrix, to
!> make its rows and columns closer in norm and the condition numbers
!> of its eigenvalues and eigenvectors smaller.  The computed
!> reciprocal condition numbers correspond to the balanced matrix.
!> Permuting rows and columns will not change the condition numbers
!> (in exact arithmetic) but diagonal scaling will.  For further
!> explanation of balancing, see section 4.10.2 of the LAPACK
!> Users' Guide.
