## Function Documentation

### subroutine chesv\_rk (character uplo, integer n, integer nrhs, complex, dimension( lda, \* ) a, integer lda, complex, dimension( \* ) e, integer, dimension( \* ) ipiv, complex, dimension( ldb, \* ) b, integer ldb, complex, dimension( \* ) work, integer lwork, integer info)

 **CHESV\_RK computes the solution to system of linear equations A \* X = B for SY matrices**

**Purpose:**

```
!> CHESV_RK computes the solution to a complex system of linear
!> equations A * X = B, where A is an N-by-N Hermitian matrix
!> and X and B are N-by-NRHS matrices.
!>
!> The bounded Bunch-Kaufman (rook) diagonal pivoting method is used
!> to factor A as
!>    A = P*U*D*(U**H)*(P**T),  if UPLO = 'U', or
!>    A = P*L*D*(L**H)*(P**T),  if UPLO = 'L',
!> where U (or L) is unit upper (or lower) triangular matrix,
!> U**H (or L**H) is the conjugate of U (or L), P is a permutation
!> matrix, P**T is the transpose of P, and D is Hermitian and block
!> diagonal with 1-by-1 and 2-by-2 diagonal blocks.
!>
!> CHETRF_RK is called to compute the factorization of a complex
!> Hermitian matrix.  The factored form of A is then used to solve
!> the system of equations A * X = B by calling BLAS3 routine CHETRS_3.
!>

!>          < 0: If INFO = -k, the k-th argument had an illegal value
!>
!>          > 0: If INFO = k, the matrix A is singular, because:

!>                 If UPLO = 'L': column k in the lower
!>                 triangular part of A contains all zeros.
!>
!>               Therefore D(k,k) is exactly zero, and superdiagonal
!>               elements of column k of U (or subdiagonal elements of
!>               column k of L ) are all zeros. The factorization has
!>               been completed, but the block diagonal matrix D is
!>               exactly singular, and division by zero will occur if
!>               it is used to solve a system of equations.
!>
!>               NOTE: INFO only stores the first occurrence of

!>          On exit, contains the output computed by the factorization
!>          routine ZSYTRF_RK, i.e. the superdiagonal (or subdiagonal)
!>          elements of the symmetric block diagonal matrix D
!>          with 1-by-1 or 2-by-2 diagonal blocks, where
!>          If UPLO = 'U': E(i) = D(i-1,i), i=2:N, E(1) is set to 0;
!>          If UPLO = 'L': E(i) = D(i+1,i), i=1:N-1, E(N) is set to 0.
!>
!>          NOTE: For 1-by-1 diagonal block D(k), where
!>          1 <= k <= N, the element E(k) is set to 0 in both
!>          UPLO = 'U' or UPLO = 'L' cases.
!>
!>          For more info see the description of ZSYTRF_RK routine.

```

*IPIV*

```
!>          IPIV is INTEGER array, dimension (N)
!>          Details of the interchanges and the block structure of D,
!>          as determined by ZSYTRF_RK.

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

*WORK*

```
!>          WORK is COMPLEX*16 array, dimension ( MAX(1,LWORK) ).
!>          Work array used in the factorization stage.
!>          On exit, if INFO = 0, WORK(1) returns the optimal LWORK.
!>
```

*LWORK*

```
!>          LWORK is INTEGER
!>          The length of WORK.  LWORK >= 1. For best performance
!>          of factorization stage LWORK >= max(1,N*NB), where NB is
!>          the optimal blocksize for ZSYTRF_RK.
!>
!>          If LWORK = -1, then a workspace query is assumed;
!>          the routine only calculates the optimal size of the WORK
!>          array for factorization stage, returns this value as
!>          the first entry of the WORK array, and no error message
!>          related to LWORK is issued by XERBLA.
!>
```

*INFO*

```
!>          INFO is INTEGER
!>          = 0: successful exit
!>
!>          < 0: If INFO = -k, the k-th argument had an illegal value
!>
!>          > 0: If INFO = k, the matrix A is singular, because:
!>                 If UPLO = 'U': column k in the upper
!>                 triangular part of A contains all zeros.
!>                 If UPLO = 'L': column k in the lower
!>                 triangular part of A contains all zeros.
!>
!>               Therefore D(k,k) is exactly zero, and superdiagonal
!>               elements of column k of U (or subdiagonal elements of
!>               column k of L ) are all zeros. The factorization has
!>               been completed, but the block diagonal matrix D is
!>               exactly singular, and division by zero will occur if
!>               it is used to solve a system of equations.
!>
!>               NOTE: INFO only stores the first occurrence of
!>               a singularity, any subsequent occurrence of singularity
!>               is not stored in INFO even though the factorization
!>               always completes.
