DGELQF(1) LAPACK routine (version 3.2) DGELQF(1)NAME
DGELQF - computes an LQ factorization of a real M-by-N matrix A
SYNOPSIS
SUBROUTINE DGELQF( M, N, A, LDA, TAU, WORK, LWORK, INFO )
INTEGER INFO, LDA, LWORK, M, N
DOUBLE PRECISION A( LDA, * ), TAU( * ), WORK( * )
PURPOSE
DGELQF computes an LQ factorization of a real M-by-N matrix A: A = L *
Q.
ARGUMENTS
M (input) INTEGER
The number of rows of the matrix A. M >= 0.
N (input) INTEGER
The number of columns of the matrix A. N >= 0.
A (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDA,N)
On entry, the M-by-N matrix A. On exit, the elements on and
below the diagonal of the array contain the m-by-min(m,n) lower
trapezoidal matrix L (L is lower triangular if m <= n); the
elements above the diagonal, with the array TAU, represent the
orthogonal matrix Q as a product of elementary reflectors (see
Further Details). LDA (input) INTEGER The leading dimen‐
sion of the array A. LDA >= max(1,M).
TAU (output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (min(M,N))
The scalar factors of the elementary reflectors (see Further
Details).
WORK (workspace/output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension
(MAX(1,LWORK))
On exit, if INFO = 0, WORK(1) returns the optimal LWORK.
LWORK (input) INTEGER
The dimension of the array WORK. LWORK >= max(1,M). For opti‐
mum performance LWORK >= M*NB, where NB is the optimal block‐
size. If LWORK = -1, then a workspace query is assumed; the
routine only calculates the optimal size of the WORK array,
returns this value as the first entry of the WORK array, and no
error message related to LWORK is issued by XERBLA.
INFO (output) INTEGER
= 0: successful exit
< 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
FURTHER DETAILS
The matrix Q is represented as a product of elementary reflectors
Q = H(k) . . . H(2)H(1), where k = min(m,n).
Each H(i) has the form
H(i) = I - tau * v * v'
where tau is a real scalar, and v is a real vector with
v(1:i-1) = 0 and v(i) = 1; v(i+1:n) is stored on exit in A(i,i+1:n),
and tau in TAU(i).
