## Detailed Description

## Function Documentation

### subroutine ctrevc3 (character side, character howmny, logical, dimension( \* ) select, integer n, complex, dimension( ldt, \* ) t, integer ldt, complex, dimension( ldvl, \* ) vl, integer ldvl, complex, dimension( ldvr, \* ) vr, integer ldvr, integer mm, integer m, complex, dimension( \* ) work, integer lwork, real, dimension( \* ) rwork, integer lrwork, integer info)

**CTREVC3**

**Purpose:**

```
!>
!> CTREVC3 computes some or all of the right and/or left eigenvectors of
!> a complex upper triangular matrix T.
!> Matrices of this type are produced by the Schur factorization of
!> a complex general matrix:  A = Q*T*Q**H, as computed by CHSEQR.
!>
!> The right eigenvector x and the left eigenvector y of T corresponding
!> to an eigenvalue w are defined by:
!>
!>              T*x = w*x,     (y**H)*T = w*(y**H)
!>
!> where y**H denotes the conjugate transpose of the vector y.
!> The eigenvalues are not input to this routine, but are read directly
!> from the diagonal of T.
!>
!> This routine returns the matrices X and/or Y of right and left
!> eigenvectors of T, or the products Q*X and/or Q*Y, where Q is an
!> input matrix. If Q is the unitary factor that reduces a matrix A to
!> Schur form T, then Q*X and Q*Y are the matrices of right and left
!> eigenvectors of A.
!>
!> This uses a Level 3 BLAS version of the back transformation.

### subroutine ztrevc3 (character side, character howmny, logical, dimension( \* ) select, integer n, complex\*16, dimension( ldt, \* ) t, integer ldt, complex\*16, dimension( ldvl, \* ) vl, integer ldvl, complex\*16, dimension( ldvr, \* ) vr, integer ldvr, integer mm, integer m, complex\*16, dimension( \* ) work, integer lwork, double precision, dimension( \* ) rwork, integer lrwork, integer info)

**ZTREVC3**

**Purpose:**

```
!>
!> ZTREVC3 computes some or all of the right and/or left eigenvectors of
!> a complex upper triangular matrix T.
!> Matrices of this type are produced by the Schur factorization of
!> a complex general matrix:  A = Q*T*Q**H, as computed by ZHSEQR.
!>
!> The right eigenvector x and the left eigenvector y of T corresponding
!> to an eigenvalue w are defined by:
!>
!>              T*x = w*x,     (y**H)*T = w*(y**H)
!>
!> where y**H denotes the conjugate transpose of the vector y.
!> The eigenvalues are not input to this routine, but are read directly
!> from the diagonal of T.
!>
!> This routine returns the matrices X and/or Y of right and left
!> eigenvectors of T, or the products Q*X and/or Q*Y, where Q is an
!> input matrix. If Q is the unitary factor that reduces a matrix A to
!> Schur form T, then Q*X and Q*Y are the matrices of right and left
!> eigenvectors of A.
!>
!> This uses a Level 3 BLAS version of the back transformation.
