**ZHSEIN**

**Purpose:**

```
!>
!> ZHSEIN uses inverse iteration to find specified right and/or left
!> eigenvectors of a complex upper Hessenberg matrix H.
!>
!> The right eigenvector x and the left eigenvector y of the matrix H
!> corresponding to an eigenvalue w are defined by:
!>
!>              H * x = w * x,     y**h * H = w * y**h
!>
!> where y**h denotes the conjugate transpose of the vector y.
!>
```

**Parameters**

*SIDE*

```
!>          SIDE is CHARACTER*1
!>          = 'R': compute right eigenvectors only;
!>          = 'L': compute left eigenvectors only;
!>          = 'B': compute both right and left eigenvectors.
!>
```

*EIGSRC*

```
!>          EIGSRC is CHARACTER*1
!>          Specifies the source of eigenvalues supplied in W:
!>          = 'Q': the eigenvalues were found using ZHSEQR; thus, if
!>                 H has zero subdiagonal elements, and so is
!>                 block-triangular, then the j-th eigenvalue can be
!>                 assumed to be an eigenvalue of the block containing
!>                 the j-th row/column.  This property allows ZHSEIN to
!>                 perform inverse iteration on just one diagonal block.
!>          = 'N': no assumptions are made on the correspondence
!>                 between eigenvalues and diagonal blocks.  In this
!>                 case, ZHSEIN must always perform inverse iteration
!>                 using the whole matrix H.
!>
```

*INITV*

```
!>          INITV is CHARACTER*1
!>          = 'N': no initial vectors are supplied;
!>          = 'U': user-supplied initial vectors are stored in the arrays
!>                 VL and/or VR.
!>
```

*SELECT*

```
!>          SELECT is LOGICAL array, dimension (N)
!>          Specifies the eigenvectors to be computed. To select the
!>          eigenvector corresponding to the eigenvalue W(j),
!>          SELECT(j) must be set to .TRUE..
!>
```

*N*

```

!>          The order of the matrix H.  N >= 0.
!>
```

*H*

```
!>          H is COMPLEX*16 array, dimension (LDH,N)
!>          The upper Hessenberg matrix H.
!>          If a NaN is detected in H, the routine will return with INFO=-6.
!>

!>          On entry, the eigenvalues of H.
!>          On exit, the real parts of W may have been altered since

!>          independent eigenvectors.
!>
```

*VL*

```
!>          VL is COMPLEX*16 array, dimension (LDVL,MM)
!>          On entry, if INITV = 'U' and SIDE = 'L' or 'B', VL must
!>          contain starting vectors for the inverse iteration for the
!>          left eigenvectors; the starting vector for each eigenvector
!>          must be in the same column in which the eigenvector will be
!>          stored.
!>          On exit, if SIDE = 'L' or 'B', the left eigenvectors
!>          specified by SELECT will be stored consecutively in the
!>          columns of VL, in the same order as their eigenvalues.
!>          If SIDE = 'R', VL is not referenced.
!>
```

!>          contain starting vectors for the inverse iteration for the
!>          right eigenvectors; the starting vector for each eigenvector
!>          must be in the same column in which the eigenvector will be
!>          stored.
!>          On exit, if SIDE = 'R' or 'B', the right eigenvectors
!>          specified by SELECT will be stored consecutively in the
!>          columns of VR, in the same order as their eigenvalues.
!>          If SIDE = 'L', VR is not referenced.
!>
```

!>          The leading dimension of the array VR.

```
!>          IFAILL is INTEGER array, dimension (MM)
!>          If SIDE = 'L' or 'B', IFAILL(i) = j > 0 if the left
!>          eigenvector in the i-th column of VL (corresponding to the
!>          eigenvalue w(j)) failed to converge; IFAILL(i) = 0 if the
!>          eigenvector converged satisfactorily.
!>          If SIDE = 'R', IFAILL is not referenced.
