## Detailed Description

## Function Documentation

### subroutine chetf2\_rook (character uplo, integer n, complex, dimension( lda, \* ) a, integer lda, integer, dimension( \* ) ipiv, integer info)

**CHETF2\_ROOK** computes the factorization of a complex Hermitian indefinite matrix using the bounded Bunch-Kaufman ("rook") diagonal pivoting method (unblocked algorithm).

**Purpose:**

```
!>
!> CHETF2_ROOK computes the factorization of a complex Hermitian matrix A
!> using the bounded Bunch-Kaufman () diagonal pivoting method:
!>
!>    A = U*D*U**H  or  A = L*D*L**H
!>
!> where U (or L) is a product of permutation and unit upper (lower)
!> triangular matrices, U**H is the conjugate transpose of U, and D is
!> Hermitian and block diagonal with 1-by-1 and 2-by-2 diagonal blocks.
!>
!> This is the unblocked version of the algorithm, calling Level 2 BLAS.
!>
```

**Parameters**

*UPLO*

```
!>          UPLO is CHARACTER*1
!>          Specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of the
!>          Hermitian matrix A is stored:
!>          = 'U':  Upper triangular
!>          = 'L':  Lower triangular
!>
```

```

*A*

```
!>          A is COMPLEX array, dimension (LDA,N)
!>          On entry, the Hermitian 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, the block diagonal matrix D and the multipliers used
!>          to obtain the factor U or L (see below for further details).

!>          Details of the interchanges and the block structure of D.
!>
!>          If UPLO = 'U':
!>             If IPIV(k) > 0, then rows and columns k and IPIV(k) were
!>             interchanged and D(k,k) is a 1-by-1 diagonal block.
!>
!>             If IPIV(k) < 0 and IPIV(k-1) < 0, then rows and
!>             columns k and -IPIV(k) were interchanged and rows and
!>             columns k-1 and -IPIV(k-1) were inerchaged,
!>             D(k-1:k,k-1:k) is a 2-by-2 diagonal block.
!>
!>          If UPLO = 'L':
!>             If IPIV(k) > 0, then rows and columns k and IPIV(k)
!>             were interchanged and D(k,k) is a 1-by-1 diagonal block.

!>             If IPIV(k) < 0 and IPIV(k+1) < 0, then rows and

!>          < 0: if INFO = -k, the k-th argument had an illegal value
!>          > 0: if INFO = k, D(k,k) is exactly zero.  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.
