**CHPGVX**

**Purpose:**

```
!>
!> CHPGVX computes selected eigenvalues and, optionally, eigenvectors
!> of a complex generalized Hermitian-definite eigenproblem, of the form
!> A*x=(lambda)*B*x,  A*Bx=(lambda)*x,  or B*A*x=(lambda)*x.  Here A and
!> B are assumed to be Hermitian, stored in packed format, and B is also
!> positive definite.  Eigenvalues and eigenvectors can be selected by
!> specifying either a range of values or a range of indices for the
!> desired eigenvalues.
!>

!>          if ITYPE = 3, Z**H*inv(B)*Z = I.
!>
!>          If an eigenvector fails to converge, then that column of Z
!>          contains the latest approximation to the eigenvector, and the
!>          index of the eigenvector is returned in IFAIL.
!>          Note: the user must ensure that at least max(1,M) columns are

!> B are assumed to be Hermitian, stored in packed format, and B is also

!> desired eigenvalues.
