Required Arguments
A — Complex N by N matrix to be factored. (Input)

Optional Arguments
N — Order of the matrix. (Input) Default: N = size (A,2).

Description
Routine LFTCG performs an LU factorization of a complex general coefficient matrix. The LU factorization is done using scaled partial pivoting. Scaled partial pivoting differs from partial pivoting in that the pivoting strategy is the same as if each row were scaled to have the same .
LFTCG fails if U, the upper triangular part of the factorization, has a zero diagonal element. This can occur only if A either is singular or is very close to a singular matrix.
The LU factors are returned in a form that is compatible with routines LFICG, LFSCG and LFDCG. To solve systems of equations with multiple right-hand-side vectors, use LFTCG followed by either LFICG or LFSCG called once for each right-hand side. The routine LFDCG can be called to compute the determinant of the coefficient matrix after LFCCG has performed the factorization.
Let F be the matrix FACT and let p be the vector IPVT. The triangular matrix U is stored in the upper triangle of F. The strict lower triangle of F contains the information needed to reconstruct L using
L = LN-1PN-1…L1P1
where Pk is the identity matrix with rows k and Pk interchanged and Lk is the identity with Fik for i = k + 1, …, N inserted below the diagonal. The strict lower half of F can also be thought of as containing the negative of the multipliers.
The underlying code is based on either LINPACK , LAPACK, or ScaLAPACK code depending upon which supporting libraries are used during linking. For a detailed explanation see “Using ScaLAPACK, LAPACK, LINPACK, and EISPACK” in the Introduction section of this manual.

ScaLAPACK Usage Notes
The arguments which differ from the standard version of this routine are:
A0 — MXLDA by MXCOL complex local matrix containing the local portions of the distributed matrix A. A contains the matrix to be factored. (Input)
FACT0 — MXLDA by MXCOL complex local matrix containing the local portions of the distributed matrix FACT. FACT contains the LU factorization of the matrix A. (Output) If A is not needed, A and FACT can share the same storage locations.
IPVT0 — Local vector of length MXLDA containing the local portions of the distributed vector IPVT. IPVT contains the pivoting information for the LU factorization. (Output)
All other arguments are global and are the same as described for the standard version of the routine. In the argument descriptions above, MXLDA and MXCOL can be obtained through a call to SCALAPACK_GETDIM (see Utilities) after a call to SCALAPACK_SETUP (see Utilities) has been made. See the ScaLAPACK Example below.
Examples
Example
A linear system with multiple right-hand sides is solved. LFTCG is called to factor the coefficient matrix. LFSCG is called to compute the two solutions for the two right-hand sides. In this case the coefficient matrix is assumed to be well-conditioned and correctly scaled. Otherwise, it would be better to call LFCCG to perform the factorization, and LFICG to compute the solutions.

ScaLAPACK Example
The same linear system with multiple right-hand sides is solved as a distributed example. LFTCG is called to factor the matrix. LFSCG is called to compute the two solutions for the two right-hand sides. SCALAPACK_MAP and SCALAPACK_UNMAP are IMSL utility routines (see Chapter 11, “Utilities”) used to map and unmap arrays to and from the processor grid. They are used here for brevity. DESCINIT is a ScaLAPACK tools routine which initializes the descriptors for the local arrays.
