CGEEQUB(1) LAPACK routine (version 3.2) CGEEQUB(1)

NAME

CGEEQUB - computes row and column scalings intended to equilibrate an M-by-N matrix A and reduce its condition number

SYNOPSIS

M, N, A, LDA, R, C, ROWCND, COLCND, AMAX, INFO )

IMPLICIT NONE INTEGER INFO, LDA, M, N REAL AMAX, COLCND, ROWCND REAL C( * ), R( * ) COMPLEX A( LDA, * )

PURPOSE

CGEEQUB computes row and column scalings intended to equilibrate an M-by-N matrix A and reduce its condition number. R returns the row scale factors and C the column scale factors, chosen to try to make the largest element in each row and column of the matrix B with elements B(i,j)=R(i)*A(i,j)*C(j) have an absolute value of at most the radix.
R(i) and C(j) are restricted to be a power of the radix between SMLNUM = smallest safe number and BIGNUM = largest safe number. Use of these scaling factors is not guaranteed to reduce the condition number of A but works well in practice.
This routine differs from CGEEQU by restricting the scaling factors to a power of the radix. Baring over- and underflow, scaling by these factors introduces no additional rounding errors. However, the scaled entries' magnitured are no longer approximately 1 but lie between sqrt(radix) and 1/sqrt(radix).

ARGUMENTS

The number of rows of the matrix A. M >= 0.
The number of columns of the matrix A. N >= 0.
The M-by-N matrix whose equilibration factors are to be computed.
The leading dimension of the array A. LDA >= max(1,M).
If INFO = 0 or INFO > M, R contains the row scale factors for A.
If INFO = 0, C contains the column scale factors for A.
If INFO = 0 or INFO > M, ROWCND contains the ratio of the smallest R(i) to the largest R(i). If ROWCND >= 0.1 and AMAX is neither too large nor too small, it is not worth scaling by R.
If INFO = 0, COLCND contains the ratio of the smallest C(i) to the largest C(i). If COLCND >= 0.1, it is not worth scaling by C.
Absolute value of largest matrix element. If AMAX is very close to overflow or very close to underflow, the matrix should be scaled.
= 0: successful exit
< 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
> 0: if INFO = i, and i is
<= M: the i-th row of A is exactly zero
> M: the (i-M)-th column of A is exactly zero
