PURPOSE
PCSTEIN computes the eigenvectors of a symmetric tridiagonal matrix in parallel, using
inverse iteration. The eigenvectors found correspond to user specified eigenvalues.
PCSTEIN does not orthogonalize vectors that are on different processes. The extent of
orthogonalization is controlled by the input parameter LWORK. Eigenvectors that are to be
orthogonalized are computed by the same process. PCSTEIN decides on the allocation of work
among the processes and then calls SSTEIN2 (modified LAPACK routine) on each individual
process. If insufficient workspace is allocated, the expected orthogonalization may not be
done.
Note : If the eigenvectors obtained are not orthogonal, increase
LWORK and run the code again.
Notes
=====
Each global data object is described by an associated description vector. This vector
stores the information required to establish the mapping between an object element and its
corresponding process and memory location.
Let A be a generic term for any 2D block cyclicly distributed array. Such a global array
has an associated description vector DESCA. In the following comments, the character _
should be read as "of the global array".
NOTATION STORED IN EXPLANATION
--------------- -------------- -------------------------------------- DTYPE_A(global)
DESCA( DTYPE_ )The descriptor type. In this case,
DTYPE_A = 1.
CTXT_A (global) DESCA( CTXT_ ) The BLACS context handle, indicating
the BLACS process grid A is distribu-
ted over. The context itself is glo-
bal, but the handle (the integer
value) may vary.
M_A (global) DESCA( M_ ) The number of rows in the global
array A.
N_A (global) DESCA( N_ ) The number of columns in the global
array A.
MB_A (global) DESCA( MB_ ) The blocking factor used to distribute
the rows of the array.
NB_A (global) DESCA( NB_ ) The blocking factor used to distribute
the columns of the array.
RSRC_A (global) DESCA( RSRC_ ) The process row over which the first
row of the array A is distributed. CSRC_A (global) DESCA(
CSRC_ ) The process column over which the
first column of the array A is
distributed.
LLD_A (local) DESCA( LLD_ ) The leading dimension of the local
array. LLD_A >= MAX(1,LOCr(M_A)).
Let K be the number of rows or columns of a distributed matrix, and assume that its
process grid has dimension p x q.
LOCr( K ) denotes the number of elements of K that a process would receive if K were
distributed over the p processes of its process column.
Similarly, LOCc( K ) denotes the number of elements of K that a process would receive if K
were distributed over the q processes of its process row.
The values of LOCr() and LOCc() may be determined via a call to the ScaLAPACK tool
function, NUMROC:
LOCr( M ) = NUMROC( M, MB_A, MYROW, RSRC_A, NPROW ),
LOCc( N ) = NUMROC( N, NB_A, MYCOL, CSRC_A, NPCOL ). An upper bound for these
quantities may be computed by:
LOCr( M ) <= ceil( ceil(M/MB_A)/NPROW )*MB_A
LOCc( N ) <= ceil( ceil(N/NB_A)/NPCOL )*NB_A
ARGUMENTS
P = NPROW * NPCOL is the total number of processes
N (global input) INTEGER
The order of the tridiagonal matrix T. N >= 0.
D (global input) REAL array, dimension (N)
The n diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix T.
E (global input) REAL array, dimension (N-1)
The (n-1) off-diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix T.
M (global input) INTEGER
The total number of eigenvectors to be found. 0 <= M <= N.
W (global input/global output) REAL array, dim (M)
On input, the first M elements of W contain all the eigenvalues for which
eigenvectors are to be computed. The eigenvalues should be grouped by split-off
block and ordered from smallest to largest within the block (The output array W
from PSSTEBZ with ORDER='b' is expected here). This array should be replicated on
all processes. On output, the first M elements contain the input eigenvalues in
ascending order.
Note : To obtain orthogonal vectors, it is best if eigenvalues are computed to
highest accuracy ( this can be done by setting ABSTOL to the underflow threshold =
SLAMCH('U') --- ABSTOL is an input parameter to PSSTEBZ )
IBLOCK (global input) INTEGER array, dimension (N)
The submatrix indices associated with the corresponding eigenvalues in W -- 1 for
eigenvalues belonging to the first submatrix from the top, 2 for those belonging
to the second submatrix, etc. (The output array IBLOCK from PSSTEBZ is expected
here).
ISPLIT (global input) INTEGER array, dimension (N)
The splitting points, at which T breaks up into submatrices. The first submatrix
consists of rows/columns 1 to ISPLIT(1), the second of rows/columns ISPLIT(1)+1
through ISPLIT(2), etc., and the NSPLIT-th consists of rows/columns
ISPLIT(NSPLIT-1)+1 through ISPLIT(NSPLIT)=N (The output array ISPLIT from PSSTEBZ
is expected here.)
ORFAC (global input) REAL
ORFAC specifies which eigenvectors should be orthogonalized. Eigenvectors that
correspond to eigenvalues which are within ORFAC*||T|| of each other are to be
orthogonalized. However, if the workspace is insufficient (see LWORK), this
tolerance may be decreased until all eigenvectors to be orthogonalized can be
stored in one process. No orthogonalization will be done if ORFAC equals zero. A
default value of 10^-3 is used if ORFAC is negative. ORFAC should be identical on
all processes.
Z (local output) COMPLEX array,
dimension (DESCZ(DLEN_), N/npcol + NB) Z contains the computed eigenvectors
associated with the specified eigenvalues. Any vector which fails to converge is
set to its current iterate after MAXITS iterations ( See SSTEIN2 ). On output, Z
is distributed across the P processes in block cyclic format.
IZ (global input) INTEGER
Z's global row index, which points to the beginning of the submatrix which is to
be operated on.
JZ (global input) INTEGER
Z's global column index, which points to the beginning of the submatrix which is
to be operated on.
DESCZ (global and local input) INTEGER array of dimension DLEN_.
The array descriptor for the distributed matrix Z.
WORK (local workspace/global output) REAL array,
dimension ( LWORK ) On output, WORK(1) gives a lower bound on the workspace (
LWORK ) that guarantees the user desired orthogonalization (see ORFAC). Note that
this may overestimate the minimum workspace needed.
LWORK (local input) integer
LWORK controls the extent of orthogonalization which can be done. The number of
eigenvectors for which storage is allocated on each process is NVEC = floor((
LWORK- max(5*N,NP00*MQ00) )/N). Eigenvectors corresponding to eigenvalue clusters
of size NVEC - ceil(M/P) + 1 are guaranteed to be orthogonal ( the orthogonality
is similar to that obtained from CSTEIN2). Note : LWORK must be no smaller than:
max(5*N,NP00*MQ00) + ceil(M/P)*N, and should have the same input value on all
processes. It is the minimum value of LWORK input on different processes that is
significant.
If LWORK = -1, then LWORK is global input and a workspace query is assumed; the
routine only calculates the minimum and optimal size for all work arrays. Each of
these values is returned in the first entry of the corresponding work array, and
no error message is issued by PXERBLA.
IWORK (local workspace/global output) INTEGER array,
dimension ( 3*N+P+1 ) On return, IWORK(1) contains the amount of integer workspace
required. On return, the IWORK(2) through IWORK(P+2) indicate the eigenvectors
computed by each process. Process I computes eigenvectors indexed IWORK(I+2)+1
thru' IWORK(I+3).
LIWORK (local input) INTEGER
Size of array IWORK. Must be >= 3*N + P + 1
If LIWORK = -1, then LIWORK is global input and a workspace query is assumed; the
routine only calculates the minimum and optimal size for all work arrays. Each of
these values is returned in the first entry of the corresponding work array, and
no error message is issued by PXERBLA.
IFAIL (global output) integer array, dimension (M)
On normal exit, all elements of IFAIL are zero. If one or more eigenvectors fail
to converge after MAXITS iterations (as in CSTEIN), then INFO > 0 is returned. If
mod(INFO,M+1)>0, then for I=1 to mod(INFO,M+1), the eigenvector corresponding to
the eigenvalue W(IFAIL(I)) failed to converge ( W refers to the array of
eigenvalues on output ).
ICLUSTR (global output) integer array, dimension (2*P) This output array contains
indices of eigenvectors corresponding to a cluster of eigenvalues that could not
be orthogonalized due to insufficient workspace (see LWORK, ORFAC and INFO).
Eigenvectors corresponding to clusters of eigenvalues indexed ICLUSTR(2*I-1) to
ICLUSTR(2*I), I = 1 to INFO/(M+1), could not be orthogonalized due to lack of
workspace. Hence the eigenvectors corresponding to these clusters may not be
orthogonal. ICLUSTR is a zero terminated array --- ( ICLUSTR(2*K).NE.0 .AND.
ICLUSTR(2*K+1).EQ.0 ) if and only if K is the number of clusters.
GAP (global output) REAL array, dimension (P)
This output array contains the gap between eigenvalues whose eigenvectors could
not be orthogonalized. The INFO/M output values in this array correspond to the
INFO/(M+1) clusters indicated by the array ICLUSTR. As a result, the dot product
between eigenvectors corresponding to the I^th cluster may be as high as (
O(n)*macheps ) / GAP(I).
INFO (global output) INTEGER
= 0: successful exit
< 0: If the i-th argument is an array and the j-entry had an illegal value, then
INFO = -(i*100+j), if the i-th argument is a scalar and had an illegal value, then
INFO = -i. < 0 : if INFO = -I, the I-th argument had an illegal value
> 0 : if mod(INFO,M+1) = I, then I eigenvectors failed to converge in MAXITS
iterations. Their indices are stored in the array IFAIL. if INFO/(M+1) = I, then
eigenvectors corresponding to I clusters of eigenvalues could not be
orthogonalized due to insufficient workspace. The indices of the clusters are
stored in the array ICLUSTR.
