NAME

DLANSF - returns the value of the one norm, or the Frobenius norm, or the infinity norm, or the element of largest absolute value of a real symmetric matrix A in RFP format

SYNOPSIS

DOUBLE PRECISION: FUNCTION DLANSF( NORM, TRANSR, UPLO, N, A, WORK )
: CHARACTER NORM, TRANSR, UPLO
: INTEGER N
: DOUBLE PRECISION A( 0: * ), WORK( 0: * )

PURPOSE

DLANSF returns the value of the one norm, or the Frobenius norm, or the infinity norm, or the element of largest absolute value of a real symmetric matrix A in RFP format.

DESCRIPTION

DLANSF returns the value

DLANSF = ( max(abs(A(i,j))), NORM = aqMaq or aqmaq

      (

      ( norm1(A),         NORM = aq1aq, aqOaq or aqoaq

      (

      ( normI(A),         NORM = aqIaq or aqiaq

      (

      ( normF(A),         NORM = aqFaq, aqfaq, aqEaq or aqeaq where norm1 denotes the one norm of a matrix (maximum column sum), normI denotes the infinity norm of a matrix (maximum row sum) and normF denotes the Frobenius norm of a matrix (square root of sum of squares). Note that max(abs(A(i,j))) is not a matrix norm.

ARGUMENTS

NORM (input) CHARACTER: Specifies the value to be returned in DLANSF as described above.
TRANSR (input) CHARACTER: Specifies whether the RFP format of A is normal or transposed format. = aqNaq: RFP format is Normal;
= aqTaq: RFP format is Transpose.
UPLO (input) CHARACTER: On entry, UPLO specifies whether the RFP matrix A came from an upper or lower triangular matrix as follows:
= aqUaq: RFP A came from an upper triangular matrix;
= aqLaq: RFP A came from a lower triangular matrix.
N (input) INTEGER: The order of the matrix A. N >= 0. When N = 0, DLANSF is set to zero.
A (input) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension ( N*(N+1)/2 );: On entry, the upper (if UPLO = aqUaq) or lower (if UPLO = aqLaq) part of the symmetric matrix A stored in RFP format. See the "Notes" below for more details. Unchanged on exit.
WORK (workspace) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (MAX(1,LWORK)),: where LWORK >= N when NORM = aqIaq or aq1aq or aqOaq; otherwise, WORK is not referenced.

FURTHER DETAILS

We first consider Rectangular Full Packed (RFP) Format when N is even. We give an example where N = 6.

          55       50 51 52 53 54 55
Let TRANSR = aqNaq. RFP holds AP as follows:
For UPLO = aqUaq the upper trapezoid A(0:5,0:2) consists of the last three columns of AP upper. The lower triangle A(4:6,0:2) consists of the transpose of the first three columns of AP upper.
For UPLO = aqLaq the lower trapezoid A(1:6,0:2) consists of the first three columns of AP lower. The upper triangle A(0:2,0:2) consists of the transpose of the last three columns of AP lower.
This covers the case N even and TRANSR = aqNaq.

02 12 22                50 51 52
Now let TRANSR = aqTaq. RFP A in both UPLO cases is just the transpose of RFP A above. One therefore gets:

We first consider Rectangular Full Packed (RFP) Format when N is odd. We give an example where N = 5.

Let TRANSR = aqNaq. RFP holds AP as follows:
For UPLO = aqUaq the upper trapezoid A(0:4,0:2) consists of the last three columns of AP upper. The lower triangle A(3:4,0:1) consists of the transpose of the first two columns of AP upper.
For UPLO = aqLaq the lower trapezoid A(0:4,0:2) consists of the first three columns of AP lower. The upper triangle A(0:1,1:2) consists of the transpose of the last two columns of AP lower.
This covers the case N odd and TRANSR = aqNaq.
