NAME

sptsv - compute the solution to a real system of linear equations A∗X = B, where A is an N-by-N symmetric positive definite tridiagonal matrix, and X and B are N-by-NRHS matrices

SYNOPSIS

SUBROUTINE SPTSV( N, NRHS, D, E, B, LDB, INFO )

INTEGER INFO, LDB, N, NRHS

REAL B( LDB, ∗ ), D( ∗ ), E( ∗ )

#include <sunperf.h>

void sptsv(int n, int nrhs, float ∗d, float ∗e, float ∗b, int ldb, int ∗info) ;

PURPOSE

SPTSV computes the solution to a real system of linear equations A∗X = B, where A is an N-by-N symmetric positive definite tridiagonal matrix, and X and B are N-by-NRHS matrices. 
 
A is factored as A = L∗D∗L∗∗T, and the factored form of A is then used to solve the system of equations.
 

ARGUMENTS

N (input) INTEGER
The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.

NRHS (input) INTEGER
The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns of the matrix B.  NRHS >= 0.

D (input/output) REAL array, dimension (N)
On entry, the n diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix A.  On exit, the n diagonal elements of the diagonal matrix D from the factorization A = L∗D∗L∗∗T.

E (input/output) REAL array, dimension (N-1)
On entry, the (n-1) subdiagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix A.  On exit, the (n-1) subdiagonal elements of the unit bidiagonal factor L from the L∗D∗L∗∗T factorization of A.  (E can also be regarded as the superdiagonal of the unit bidiagonal factor U from the U∗∗T∗D∗U factorization of A.)

B (input/output) REAL array, dimension (LDB,N)
On entry, the N-by-NRHS right hand side matrix B. On exit, if INFO = 0, the N-by-NRHS solution matrix X.

LDB (input) INTEGER
The leading dimension of the array B.  LDB >= max(1,N).

INFO (output) INTEGER
= 0:  successful exit
< 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
> 0:  if INFO = i, the leading minor of order i is not positive definite, and the solution has not been computed.  The factorization has not been completed unless i = N.
