PURPOSE

dpbsvx uses the Cholesky factorization A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T to compute the solution to a real system of linear equations A * X = B, where A is an N-by-N symmetric positive definite band matrix and X and B are N-by-NRHS matrices.

Error bounds on the solution and a condition estimate are also provided.

The following steps are performed:

1. If FACT = 'E', real scaling factors are computed to equilibrate the system:

      diag(S) * A * diag(S) * inv(diag(S)) * X = diag(S) * B
   Whether or not the system will be equilibrated depends on the
   scaling of the matrix A, but if equilibration is used, A is
   overwritten by diag(S)*A*diag(S) and B by diag(S)*B.

2. If FACT = 'N' or 'E', the Cholesky decomposition is used to factor the matrix A (after equilibration if FACT = 'E') as A = U**T * U, if UPLO = 'U', or

      A = L * L**T,  if UPLO = 'L',
   where U is an upper triangular band matrix, and L is a lower
   triangular band matrix.

3. If the leading i-by-i principal minor is not positive definite, then the routine returns with INFO = i. Otherwise, the factored form of A is used to estimate the condition number of the matrix A. If the reciprocal of the condition number is less than machine precision, INFO = N+1 is returned as a warning, but the routine still goes on to solve for X and compute error bounds as described below.

4. The system of equations is solved for X using the factored form of A.

5. Iterative refinement is applied to improve the computed solution matrix and calculate error bounds and backward error estimates for it.

6. If equilibration was used, the matrix X is premultiplied by diag(S) so that it solves the original system before

   equilibration.

FURTHER DETAILS

The band storage scheme is illustrated by the following example, when N = 6, NDIAG = 2, and UPLO = 'U':

Two-dimensional storage of the symmetric matrix A:

   a11  a12  a13
        a22  a23  a24
             a33  a34  a35
                  a44  a45  a46
                       a55  a56
   (aij =conjg(aji))         a66

Band storage of the upper triangle of A:

    *    *   a13  a24  a35  a46
    *   a12  a23  a34  a45  a56
   a11  a22  a33  a44  a55  a66

Similarly, if UPLO = 'L' the format of A is as follows:

   a11  a22  a33  a44  a55  a66
   a21  a32  a43  a54  a65   *
   a31  a42  a53  a64   *    *

Array elements marked * are not used by the routine.
