PURPOSE

PSLABRD reduces the first NB rows and columns of a real general M-by-N distributed matrix sub( A ) = A(IA:IA+M-1,JA:JA+N-1) to upper or lower bidiagonal form by an orthogonal transformation Q' * A * P, and returns the matrices X and Y which are needed to apply the transformation to the unreduced part of sub( A ).

If M >= N, sub( A ) is reduced to upper bidiagonal form; if M < N, to lower bidiagonal form.

This is an auxiliary routine called by PSGEBRD.

Notes

=====

Each global data object is described by an associated description vector. This vector stores the information required to establish the mapping between an object element and its corresponding process and memory location.

Let A be a generic term for any 2D block cyclicly distributed array. Such a global array has an associated description vector DESCA. In the following comments, the character _ should be read as "of the global array".

NOTATION STORED IN EXPLANATION

--------------- -------------- -------------------------------------- DTYPE_A(global) DESCA( DTYPE_ )The descriptor type. In this case,

                               DTYPE_A = 1.

CTXT_A (global) DESCA( CTXT_ ) The BLACS context handle, indicating

                               the BLACS process grid A is distribu-
                               ted over. The context itself is glo-
                               bal, but the handle (the integer
                               value) may vary.

M_A (global) DESCA( M_ ) The number of rows in the global

                               array A.

N_A (global) DESCA( N_ ) The number of columns in the global

                               array A.

MB_A (global) DESCA( MB_ ) The blocking factor used to distribute

                               the rows of the array.

NB_A (global) DESCA( NB_ ) The blocking factor used to distribute

                               the columns of the array.

RSRC_A (global) DESCA( RSRC_ ) The process row over which the first

                               row of the array A is distributed.

CSRC_A (global) DESCA( CSRC_ ) The process column over which the

                               first column of the array A is
                               distributed.

LLD_A (local) DESCA( LLD_ ) The leading dimension of the local

                               array.  LLD_A >= MAX(1,LOCr(M_A)).

Let K be the number of rows or columns of a distributed matrix, and assume that its process grid has dimension p x q.

LOCr( K ) denotes the number of elements of K that a process would receive if K were distributed over the p processes of its process column.

Similarly, LOCc( K ) denotes the number of elements of K that a process would receive if K were distributed over the q processes of its process row.

The values of LOCr() and LOCc() may be determined via a call to the ScaLAPACK tool function, NUMROC:

        LOCr( M ) = NUMROC( M, MB_A, MYROW, RSRC_A, NPROW ),
        LOCc( N ) = NUMROC( N, NB_A, MYCOL, CSRC_A, NPCOL ).

An upper bound for these quantities may be computed by:

        LOCr( M ) <= ceil( ceil(M/MB_A)/NPROW )*MB_A
        LOCc( N ) <= ceil( ceil(N/NB_A)/NPCOL )*NB_A

If m < n, elements below the diagonal in the first NB columns, with the array TAUQ, represent the orthogonal matrix Q as a product of elementary reflectors, and elements on and above the diagonal in the first NB rows, with the array TAUP, represent the orthogonal matrix P as a product of elementary reflectors.

See Further Details. X (local output) REAL pointer into the local memory to an array of dimension (LLD_X,NB).

NQ = NUMROC( N+MOD( IA-1, NB_Y ), NB_Y, MYCOL, IACOL, NPCOL ) IACOL = INDXG2P( JA, NB_A, MYCOL, CSRC_A, NPCOL )

INDXG2P and NUMROC are ScaLAPACK tool functions; MYROW, MYCOL, NPROW and NPCOL can be determined by calling the subroutine BLACS_GRIDINFO.

FURTHER DETAILS

The matrices Q and P are represented as products of elementary reflectors:

   Q = H(1) H(2) . . . H(nb)  and  P = G(1) G(2) . . . G(nb)

Each H(i) and G(i) has the form:

   H(i) = I - tauq * v * v'  and G(i) = I - taup * u * u'

where tauq and taup are real scalars, and v and u are real vectors.

If m >= n, v(1:i-1) = 0, v(i) = 1, and v(i:m) is stored on exit in A(ia+i-1:ia+m-1,ja+i-1); u(1:i) = 0, u(i+1) = 1, and u(i+1:n) is stored on exit in A(ia+i-1,ja+i:ja+n-1); tauq is stored in TAUQ(ja+i-1) and taup in TAUP(ia+i-1).

If m < n, v(1:i) = 0, v(i+1) = 1, and v(i+1:m) is stored on exit in A(ia+i+1:ia+m-1,ja+i-1); u(1:i-1) = 0, u(i) = 1, and u(i:n) is stored on exit in A(ia+i-1,ja+i:ja+n-1); tauq is stored in TAUQ(ja+i-1) and taup in TAUP(ia+i-1).

The elements of the vectors v and u together form the m-by-nb matrix V and the nb-by-n matrix U' which are needed, with X and Y, to apply the transformation to the unreduced part of the matrix, using a block update of the form: sub( A ) := sub( A ) - V*Y' - X*U'.

The contents of sub( A ) on exit are illustrated by the following examples with nb = 2:

m = 6 and n = 5 (m > n): m = 5 and n = 6 (m < n):

  (  1   1   u1  u1  u1 )           (  1   u1  u1  u1  u1  u1 )
  (  v1  1   1   u2  u2 )           (  1   1   u2  u2  u2  u2 )
  (  v1  v2  a   a   a  )           (  v1  1   a   a   a   a  )
  (  v1  v2  a   a   a  )           (  v1  v2  a   a   a   a  )
  (  v1  v2  a   a   a  )           (  v1  v2  a   a   a   a  )
  (  v1  v2  a   a   a  )

where a denotes an element of the original matrix which is unchanged, vi denotes an element of the vector defining H(i), and ui an element of the vector defining G(i).
