Description

The routine LQRRV computes the QR decomposition of a matrix A using blocked Householder transformations. 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. The standard algorithm is based on the storage-efficient WY representation for products of Householder transformations. See Schreiber and Van Loan (1989).

The routine LQRRV determines an orthogonal matrix Q and an upper triangular matrix R such that A = QR. The QR factorization of a matrix A having NRA rows and NCA columns is as follows:

Initialize A1 A
For k = 1, min(NRA - 1, NCA)

Determine a Householder transformation for column k of Ak having the form

 

where uk has zeros in the first k - 1 positions and τk is a scalar.

Update

 

 

End k

Thus,

 

where p = min(NRA  1, NCA). The matrix Q is not produced directly by LQRRV. The information needed to construct the Householder transformations is saved instead. If the matrix Q is needed explicitly, QT can be determined while the matrix is factored. No pivoting among the columns is done. The primary purpose of LQRRV is to give the user a high-performance QR least-squares solver. It is intended for least-squares problems that are well-posed. For background, see Golub and Van Loan (1989, page 225). During the QR factorization, the most time-consuming step is computing the matrix-vector update Ak  HkAk1. The routine LQRRV constructs “block” of NB Householder transformations in which the update is “rich” in matrix multiplication. The product of NB Householder transformations are written in the form

 

where YNRA×NB is a lower trapezoidal matrix and TNB×NB is upper triangular. The optimal choice of the block size parameter NB varies among computer systems. Users may want to change it from its default value of 1.

Comments

1. Workspace may be explicitly provided, if desired, by use of L2RRV/DL2RRV. The reference is:

CALL L2RRV (NRA, NCA, NUMEXC, A, LDA, X, LDX, FACT, LDFACT, WK)

The additional arguments are as follows:

FACTLDFACT × (NCA + NUMEXC) work array containing the Householder factorization of the matrix on output. If the input data is not needed, A and FACT can share the same storage locations.

LDFACT — Leading dimension of the array FACT exactly as specified in the dimension statement of the calling program. (Input)
If A and FACT are sharing the same storage, then LDA = LDFACT is required.

WK — Work vector of length (NCA + NUMEXC + 1) * (NB + 1) . The default value is NB = 1. This value can be reset. See item 3 below.

Description

1

The input matrix is singular.

3. Integer Options with Chapter 11 Options Manager

5 This option allows the user to reset the blocking factor used in computing the factorization. On some computers, changing IVAL(*) to a value larger than 1 will result in greater efficiency. The value IVAL(*) is the maximum value to use. (The software is specialized so that IVAL(*) is reset to an “optimal” used value within routine L2RRV.) The user can control the blocking by resetting IVAL(*) to a smaller value than the default. Default values are IVAL(*) = 1, IMACH(5).

6 This option is the vector dimension where a shift is made from in-line level-2 loops to the use of level-2 BLAS in forming the partial product of Householder transformations. Default value is IVAL(*) = IMACH(5).

10 This option allows the user to control the factorization step. If the value is 1 the Householder factorization will be computed. If the value is 2, the factorization will not be computed. In this latter case the decomposition has already been computed. Default value is IVAL(*) = 1.

11 This option allows the user to control the solving steps. The rules for IVAL(*) are:

1. Compute b QTb, and x R+b.

2. Compute b QTb.

3. Compute b Qb.

4. Compute x R+b.

Default value is IVAL (*) = 1. Note that IVAL (*) = 2 or 3 may only be set when calling L2RRV/DL2RRV.

ScaLAPACK Usage Notes

The arguments which differ from the standard version of this routine are:

A0MXLDA by MXCOL local matrix containing the local portions of the distributed matrix A. A contains the matrix and right-hand sides. (Input)
The right-hand sides are input in A(1 :  NRA, NCA + j), j = 1, NUMEXC. The array A is preserved upon output. The Householder factorization of the matrix is computed and used to solve the systems.. (Input)

X0MXLDX by MXCOLX local matrix containing the local portions of the distributed matrix X. X contains the solution. (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, MXLDX, MXCOL, and MXCOLX 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

Given a real m × k matrix B it is often necessary to compute the k least-squares solutions of the linear system AX = B, where A is an m × n real matrix. When m > n the system is considered overdetermined. A solution with a zero residual normally does not exist. Instead the minimization problem

 

is solved k times where xjbj are the j-th columns of the matrices X, B respectively. When A is of full column rank there exits a unique solution XLS that solves the above minimization problem. By using the routine LQRRV, XLS is computed.

ScaLAPACK Example

The previous example is repeated here as a distributed computing example. Given a real m × k matrix B it is often necessary to compute the k least-squares solutions of the linear system AX = B, where A is an m × n real matrix. When m > n the system is considered overdetermined. A solution with a zero residual normally does not exist. Instead the minimization problem

 

is solved k times where xjbj are the j-th columns of the matrices X, B respectively. When A is of full column rank there exits a unique solution XLS that solves the above minimization problem. By using the routine LQRRV, XLS is computed. SCALAPACK_MAP and SCALAPACK_UNMAP are IMSL utility routines (see 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.
