# NAG Library Routine DocumentF08UNF (ZHBGV)

Note:  before using this routine, please read the Users' Note for your implementation to check the interpretation of bold italicised terms and other implementation-dependent details.

## 1  Purpose

F08UNF (ZHBGV) computes all the eigenvalues and, optionally, the eigenvectors of a complex generalized Hermitian-definite banded eigenproblem, of the form
 $Az=λBz ,$
where $A$ and $B$ are Hermitian and banded, and $B$ is also positive definite.

## 2  Specification

 SUBROUTINE F08UNF ( JOBZ, UPLO, N, KA, KB, AB, LDAB, BB, LDBB, W, Z, LDZ, WORK, RWORK, INFO)
 INTEGER N, KA, KB, LDAB, LDBB, LDZ, INFO REAL (KIND=nag_wp) W(N), RWORK(3*N) COMPLEX (KIND=nag_wp) AB(LDAB,*), BB(LDBB,*), Z(LDZ,*), WORK(N) CHARACTER(1) JOBZ, UPLO
The routine may be called by its LAPACK name zhbgv.

## 3  Description

The generalized Hermitian-definite band problem
 $Az = λ Bz$
is first reduced to a standard band Hermitian problem
 $Cx = λx ,$
where $C$ is a Hermitian band matrix, using Wilkinson's modification to Crawford's algorithm (see Crawford (1973) and Wilkinson (1977)). The Hermitian eigenvalue problem is then solved for the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors, if required, which are then backtransformed to the eigenvectors of the original problem.
The eigenvectors are normalized so that the matrix of eigenvectors, $Z$, satisfies
 $ZH A Z = Λ and ZH B Z = I ,$
where $\Lambda$ is the diagonal matrix whose diagonal elements are the eigenvalues.

15:   INFO – INTEGEROutput
On exit: ${\mathbf{INFO}}=0$ unless the routine detects an error (see Section 6).

## 6  Error Indicators and Warnings

Errors or warnings detected by the routine:
${\mathbf{INFO}}<0$
If ${\mathbf{INFO}}=-i$, argument $i$ had an illegal value. An explanatory message is output, and execution of the program is terminated.
${\mathbf{INFO}}>0$
If ${\mathbf{INFO}}=i$ and $i\le {\mathbf{N}}$, the algorithm failed to converge; $i$ off-diagonal elements of an intermediate tridiagonal form did not converge to zero.
If ${\mathbf{INFO}}=i$ and $i>{\mathbf{N}}$, if ${\mathbf{INFO}}={\mathbf{N}}+i$, for $1\le i\le {\mathbf{N}}$, then F08UTF (ZPBSTF) returned ${\mathbf{INFO}}=i$: $B$ is not positive definite. The factorization of $B$ could not be completed and no eigenvalues or eigenvectors were computed.

## 7  Accuracy

If $B$ is ill-conditioned with respect to inversion, then the error bounds for the computed eigenvalues and vectors may be large, although when the diagonal elements of $B$ differ widely in magnitude the eigenvalues and eigenvectors may be less sensitive than the condition of $B$ would suggest. See Section 4.10 of Anderson et al. (1999) for details of the error bounds.

The total number of floating point operations is proportional to ${n}^{3}$ if ${\mathbf{JOBZ}}=\text{'V'}$ and, assuming that $n\gg {k}_{a}$, is approximately proportional to ${n}^{2}{k}_{a}$ otherwise.
The real analogue of this routine is F08UAF (DSBGV).
