PURPOSE

19       SSYTD2 reduces a real symmetric matrix A to symmetric tridiagonal  form
20       T by an orthogonal similarity transformation: Q' * A * Q = T.

ARGUMENTS

24       UPLO    (input) CHARACTER*1
25               Specifies  whether  the  upper  or lower triangular part of the
26               symmetric matrix A is stored:
27               = 'U':  Upper triangular
28               = 'L':  Lower triangular
29
30       N       (input) INTEGER
31               The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.
32
33       A       (input/output) REAL array, dimension (LDA,N)
34               On entry, the symmetric matrix A.  If UPLO = 'U',  the  leading
35               n-by-n upper triangular part of A contains the upper triangular
36               part of the matrix A, and the strictly lower triangular part of
37               A  is  not referenced.  If UPLO = 'L', the leading n-by-n lower
38               triangular part of A contains the lower triangular part of  the
39               matrix  A,  and  the strictly upper triangular part of A is not
40               referenced.  On exit, if UPLO = 'U',  the  diagonal  and  first
41               superdiagonal  of  A  are overwritten by the corresponding ele‐
42               ments of the tridiagonal matrix T, and the elements  above  the
43               first superdiagonal, with the array TAU, represent the orthogo‐
44               nal matrix Q as a product of elementary reflectors; if  UPLO  =
45               'L',  the diagonal and first subdiagonal of A are over- written
46               by the corresponding elements of the tridiagonal matrix T,  and
47               the  elements  below the first subdiagonal, with the array TAU,
48               represent the orthogonal matrix Q as a  product  of  elementary
49               reflectors.  See  Further Details.  LDA     (input) INTEGER The
50               leading dimension of the array A.  LDA >= max(1,N).
51
52       D       (output) REAL array, dimension (N)
53               The diagonal elements of  the  tridiagonal  matrix  T:  D(i)  =
54               A(i,i).
55
56       E       (output) REAL array, dimension (N-1)
57               The  off-diagonal  elements of the tridiagonal matrix T: E(i) =
58               A(i,i+1) if UPLO = 'U', E(i) = A(i+1,i) if UPLO = 'L'.
59
60       TAU     (output) REAL array, dimension (N-1)
61               The scalar factors of the elementary  reflectors  (see  Further
62               Details).
63
64       INFO    (output) INTEGER
65               = 0:  successful exit
66               < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value.

FURTHER DETAILS

69       If  UPLO  = 'U', the matrix Q is represented as a product of elementary
70       reflectors
71
72          Q = H(n-1) . . . H(2) H(1).
73
74       Each H(i) has the form
75
76          H(i) = I - tau * v * v'
77
78       where tau is a real scalar, and v is a real vector with
79       v(i+1:n) = 0 and v(i) = 1; v(1:i-1) is stored on exit in
80       A(1:i-1,i+1), and tau in TAU(i).
81
82       If UPLO = 'L', the matrix Q is represented as a product  of  elementary
83       reflectors
84
85          Q = H(1) H(2) . . . H(n-1).
86
87       Each H(i) has the form
88
89          H(i) = I - tau * v * v'
90
91       where tau is a real scalar, and v is a real vector with
92       v(1:i)  =  0  and v(i+1) = 1; v(i+2:n) is stored on exit in A(i+2:n,i),
93       and tau in TAU(i).
94
95       The contents of A on exit are illustrated  by  the  following  examples
96       with n = 5:
97
98       if UPLO = 'U':                       if UPLO = 'L':
99
100         (  d   e   v2  v3  v4 )              (  d                  )
101         (      d   e   v3  v4 )              (  e   d              )
102         (          d   e   v4 )              (  v1  e   d          )
103         (              d   e  )              (  v1  v2  e   d      )
104         (                  d  )              (  v1  v2  v3  e   d  )
105
106       where  d  and  e denote diagonal and off-diagonal elements of T, and vi
107       denotes an element of the vector defining H(i).
