syevd¶

Computes all eigenvalues and, optionally, all eigenvectors of a real symmetric matrix using divide and conquer algorithm.

Description

syevd supports the following precisions.

T

float

double

T
`float`
`double`

The routine computes all the eigenvalues, and optionally all the eigenvectors, of a real symmetric matrix \(A\). In other words, it can compute the spectral factorization of \(A\) as: \(A = Z\lambda Z^T\).

Here \(\Lambda\) is a diagonal matrix whose diagonal elements are the eigenvalues \(\lambda_i\), and \(Z\) is the orthogonal matrix whose columns are the eigenvectors \(z_{i}\). Thus,

\(A z_i = \lambda_i z_i\) for \(i = 1, 2, ..., n\).

If the eigenvectors are requested, then this routine uses a divide and conquer algorithm to compute eigenvalues and eigenvectors. However, if only eigenvalues are required, then it uses the Pal-Walker-Kahan variant of the QL or QR algorithm.

syevd (Buffer Version)¶

Syntax

namespace oneapi::mkl::lapack {
  void syevd(cl::sycl::queue &queue, jobz jobz, onemkl::uplo upper_lower, std::int64_t n, cl::sycl::buffer<T,1> &a, std::int64_t lda, cl::sycl::buffer<T,1> &w, cl::sycl::buffer<T,1> &scratchpad, std::int64_t scratchpad_size)
}

Input Parameters

queue

The queue where the routine should be executed.

jobz

Must be job::novec or job::vec.

If jobz = job::novec, then only eigenvalues are computed.

If jobz = job::vec, then eigenvalues and eigenvectors are computed.

upper_lower

Must be uplo::upper or uplo::lower.

If upper_lower = job::upper, a stores the upper triangular part of \(A\).

If upper_lower = job::lower, a stores the lower triangular part of \(A\).

n

The order of the matrix \(A\) (\(0 \le n\)).

a

The buffer a, size (lda,*). The buffer a contains the matrix \(A\). The second dimension of a must be at least \(\max(1, n)\).

lda

The leading dimension of a. Must be at least \(\max(1,n)\).

scratchpad_size

Size of scratchpad memory as a number of floating point elements of type T. Size should not be less than the value returned by syevd_scratchpad_size function.

Output Parameters

a: If jobz = job::vec, then on exit this buffer is overwritten by the orthogonal matrix \(Z\) which contains the eigenvectors of \(A\).
w: Buffer, size at least \(n\). Contains the eigenvalues of the matrix \(A\) in ascending order.
scratchpad: Buffer holding scratchpad memory to be used by routine for storing intermediate results.

Throws

This routine shall throw the following exceptions if the associated condition is detected. An implementation may throw additional implementation-specific exception(s) in case of error conditions not covered here.

oneapi::mkl::host_bad_alloc

oneapi::mkl::device_bad_alloc

oneapi::mkl::unimplemented

oneapi::mkl::unsupported_device

oneapi::mkl::lapack::invalid_argument

oneapi::mkl::lapack::computation_error

Exception is thrown in case of problems during calculations. The info code of the problem can be obtained by info() method of exception object:

If \(\text{info}=-i\), the \(i\)-th parameter had an illegal value.

If \(\text{info}=i\), and jobz = onemkl::job::novec, then the algorithm failed to converge; \(i\) indicates the number of off-diagonal elements of an intermediate tridiagonal form which did not converge to zero.

If \(\text{info}=i\), and jobz = onemkl::job::vec, then the algorithm failed to compute an eigenvalue while working on the submatrix lying in rows and columns \(\text{info}/(n+1)\) through \(\text{mod}(\text{info},n+1)\).

If info equals to value passed as scratchpad size, and detail() returns non zero, then passed scratchpad is of insufficient size, and required size should not be less than value return by detail() method of exception object.
