SYNOPSIS

10       SUBROUTINE ZPPSV( UPLO, N, NRHS, AP, B, LDB, INFO )
11
12           CHARACTER     UPLO

14           INTEGER       INFO, LDB, N, NRHS

16           COMPLEX*16    AP( * ), B( LDB, * )

PURPOSE

19       ZPPSV computes the solution to a complex system of linear equations
20          A * X = B, where A is an N-by-N Hermitian positive  definite  matrix
21       stored in packed format and X and B are N-by-NRHS matrices.
22       The Cholesky decomposition is used to factor A as
23          A = U**H* U,  if UPLO = 'U', or
24          A = L * L**H,  if UPLO = 'L',
25       where  U  is  an  upper  triangular  matrix and L is a lower triangular
26       matrix.  The factored form of A is then used to  solve  the  system  of
27       equations A * X = B.

ARGUMENTS

30       UPLO    (input) CHARACTER*1
31               = 'U':  Upper triangle of A is stored;
32               = 'L':  Lower triangle of A is stored.
33
34       N       (input) INTEGER
35               The  number  of linear equations, i.e., the order of the matrix
36               A.  N >= 0.
37
38       NRHS    (input) INTEGER
39               The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns  of
40               the matrix B.  NRHS >= 0.
41
42       AP      (input/output) COMPLEX*16 array, dimension (N*(N+1)/2)
43               On  entry,  the upper or lower triangle of the Hermitian matrix
44               A, packed columnwise in a linear array.  The j-th column  of  A
45               is  stored  in  the  array AP as follows: if UPLO = 'U', AP(i +
46               (j-1)*j/2) =  A(i,j)  for  1<=i<=j;  if  UPLO  =  'L',  AP(i  +
47               (j-1)*(2n-j)/2)  =  A(i,j)  for j<=i<=n.  See below for further
48               details.  On exit, if INFO = 0, the factor  U  or  L  from  the
49               Cholesky  factorization  A  = U**H*U or A = L*L**H, in the same
50               storage format as A.
51
52       B       (input/output) COMPLEX*16 array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)
53               On entry, the N-by-NRHS right hand side matrix B.  On exit,  if
54               INFO = 0, the N-by-NRHS solution matrix X.
55
56       LDB     (input) INTEGER
57               The leading dimension of the array B.  LDB >= max(1,N).
58
59       INFO    (output) INTEGER
60               = 0:  successful exit
61               < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
62               >  0:   if  INFO  = i, the leading minor of order i of A is not
63               positive definite, so the factorization could not be completed,
64               and the solution has not been computed.
65

FURTHER DETAILS

67       The  packed storage scheme is illustrated by the following example when
68       N = 4, UPLO = 'U':
69       Two-dimensional storage of the Hermitian matrix A:
70          a11 a12 a13 a14
71              a22 a23 a24
72                  a33 a34     (aij = conjg(aji))
73                      a44
74       Packed storage of the upper triangle of A:
75       AP = [ a11, a12, a22, a13, a23, a33, a14, a24, a34, a44 ]
