NAME SSYMV, DSYMV, CSYMV, ZSYMV - Multiplies a real or complex vector by a real or complex symmetric matrix SYNOPSIS Single precision Fortran: CALL SSYMV (uplo, n, alpha, a, lda, x, incx, beta, y, incy) C/C++: #include <scsl_blas.h> void ssymv (char *uplo, int n, float alpha, float *a, int lda, float *x, int x, float beta, float *y, int incy); Double precision Fortran: CALL DSYMV (uplo, n, alpha, a, lda, x, incx, beta, y, incy) C/C++: #include <scsl_blas.h> void dsymv (char *uplo, int n, double alpha, double *a, int lda, double *x, int x, double beta, double *y, int incy); Single precision complex Fortran: CALL CSYMV (uplo, n, alpha, a, lda, x, incx, beta, y, incy) C/C++: #include <scsl_blas.h> void csymv (char *uplo, int n, scsl_complex *alpha, scsl_complex *a, int lda, scsl_complex *x, int x, scsl_complex *beta, scsl_complex *y, int incy); C++ STL: #include <complex.h> #include <scsl_blas.h> void csymv (char *uplo, int n, complex<float> *alpha, complex<float> *a, int lda, complex<float> *x, int x, complex<float> *beta, complex<float> *y, int incy); Double precision complex Fortran: CALL ZSYMV (uplo, n, alpha, a, lda, x, incx, beta, y, incy) C/C++: #include <scsl_blas.h> void zsymv (char *uplo, int n, scsl_zomplex *alpha, scsl_zomplex *a, int lda, scsl_zomplex *x, int x, scsl_zomplex *beta, scsl_zomplex *y, int incy); C++ STL: #include <complex.h> #include <scsl_blas.h> void zsymv (char *uplo, int n, complex<double> *alpha, complex<double> *a, int lda, complex<double> *x, int x, complex<double> *beta, complex<double> *y, int incy); IMPLEMENTATION These routines are part of the SCSL Scientific Library and can be loaded using either the -lscs or the -lscs_mp option. The -lscs_mp option directs the linker to use the multi-processor version of the library. When linking to SCSL with -lscs or -lscs_mp, the default integer size is 4 bytes (32 bits). Another version of SCSL is available in which integers are 8 bytes (64 bits). This version allows the user access to larger memory sizes and helps when porting legacy Cray codes. It can be loaded by using the -lscs_i8 option or the -lscs_i8_mp option. A program may use only one of the two versions; 4-byte integer and 8-byte integer library calls cannot be mixed. The C and C++ prototypes shown above are appropriate for the 4-byte integer version of SCSL. When using the 8-byte integer version, the variables of type int become long long and the <scsl_blas_i8.h> header file should be included. DESCRIPTION SSYMV and DSYMV multiplies a real vector by a real symmetric matrix. CSYMV and ZSYMV multiplies a complex vector by a complex symmetric matrix. These routines perform the following matrix-vector operation: y <- alpha Ax + beta y where alpha and beta are scalars, x and y are n-element vectors, and A is an n-by-n symmetric matrix. See the NOTES section of this man page for information about the interpretation of the data types described in the following arguments. These routines have the following arguments: uplo Character. (input) Specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of matrix A is being supplied, as follows: uplo= 'U' or 'u': only the upper triangular part of A is being supplied. uplo= 'L' or 'l': only the lower triangular part of A is being supplied. For C/C++, a pointer to this character is passed. n Integer. (input) Specifies the order of matrix A. n >= 0. alpha Scalar alpha. (input) SSYMV: Single precision. DSYMV: Double precision. CSYMV: Single precision complex. ZSYMV: Double precision complex. For C/C++, a pointer to this scalar is passed when alpha is complex; otherwise, alpha is passed by value. a Array of dimension (lda,n). (input) SSYMV: Single precision array. DSYMV: Double precision array. CSYMV: Single precision complex array. ZSYMV: Double precision complex array. Before entry with uplo = 'U' or 'u', the leading n-by-n upper triangular part of array a must contain the upper triangular part of the symmetric matrix. The strictly lower triangular part of a is not referenced. Before entry with uplo = 'L' or 'l', the leading n-by-n lower triangular part of array a must contain the lower triangular part of the symmetric matrix. The strictly upper triangular part of a is not referenced. lda Integer. (input) Specifies the first dimension of a as declared in the calling program. lda >= MAX(1,n). x Array of dimension 1+(n-1) * |incx|. (input) SSYMV: Single precision array. DSYMV: Double precision array. CSYMV: Single precision complex array. ZSYMV: Double precision complex array. Contains the vector x. incx Integer. (input) Specifies the increment for the elements of x. incx must not be 0. beta Scalar beta. (input) If beta is supplied as 0, y need not be set on input. SSYMV: Single precision. DSYMV: Double precision. CSYMV: Single precision complex. ZSYMV: Double precision complex. For C/C++, a pointer to this scalar is passed when beta is complex; otherwise, beta is passed by value. y Array of dimension 1+(n-1) * |incy|. (input and output) SSYMV: Single precision array. DSYMV: Double precision array. CSYMV: Single precision complex array. ZSYMV: Double precision complex array. Contains the vector y. On exit, the updated vector overwrites array y. incy Integer. (input) Specifies the increment for the elements of y. incy must not be 0. NOTES SSYMV/DSYMV is a Level 2 Basic Linear Algebra Subprogram (Level 2 BLAS). CSYMV/ZSYMV is an extension to Level 2 BLAS. When working backward (incx < 0 or incy < 0), each routine starts at the end of the vector and moves backward, as follows: x(1-incx * (n-1)), x(1-incx * (n-2)) , ..., x(1) y(1-incy * (n-1)), y(1-incy * (n-2)) , ..., y(1) Data Types The following data types are described in this documentation: Term Used Data type Fortran: Array dimensioned n x(n) Array of dimensions (m,n) x(m,n) Integer INTEGER (INTEGER*8 for -lscs_i8[_mp]) Single precision REAL Double precision DOUBLE PRECISION Single precision complex COMPLEX Double precision complex DOUBLE COMPLEX C/C++: Array dimensioned n x[n] Array of dimensions (m,n) x[m*n] Integer int (long long for -lscs_i8[_mp]) Single precision float Double precision double Single precision complex scsl_complex Double precision complex scsl_zomplex C++ STL: Array dimensioned n x[n] Array of dimensions (m,n) x[m*n] Integer int (long long for -lscs_i8[_mp]) Single precision float Double precision double Single precision complex complex<float> Double precision complex complex<double> Note that you can explicitly declare multidimensional C/C++ arrays provided that the array dimensions are swapped with respect to the Fortran declaration (e.g., x[n][m] in C/C++ versus x(m,n) in Fortran). To avoid a compiler type mismatch error in C++ (or a compiler warning message in C), however, the array should be cast to a pointer of the appropriate type when passed as an argument to a SCSL routine.
