CHER2(1) BLAS routine CHER2(1)NAME
CHER2 - performs the hermitian rank 2 operation A := alpha*x*conjg(
y' ) + conjg( alpha )*y*conjg( x' ) + A,
SYNOPSIS
SUBROUTINE CHER2(UPLO,N,ALPHA,X,INCX,Y,INCY,A,LDA)
COMPLEX ALPHA
INTEGER INCX,INCY,LDA,N
CHARACTER UPLO
COMPLEX A(LDA,*),X(*),Y(*)
PURPOSE
CHER2 performs the hermitian rank 2 operation
where alpha is a scalar, x and y are n element vectors and A is an n by
n hermitian matrix.
ARGUMENTS
UPLO - CHARACTER*1.
On entry, UPLO specifies whether the upper or lower triangular
part of the array A is to be referenced as follows:
UPLO = 'U' or 'u' Only the upper triangular part of A is to be
referenced.
UPLO = 'L' or 'l' Only the lower triangular part of A is to be
referenced.
Unchanged on exit.
N - INTEGER.
On entry, N specifies the order of the matrix A. N must be at
least zero. Unchanged on exit.
ALPHA - COMPLEX .
On entry, ALPHA specifies the scalar alpha. Unchanged on exit.
X - COMPLEX array of dimension at least
( 1 + ( n - 1 )*abs( INCX ) ). Before entry, the incremented
array X must contain the n element vector x. Unchanged on exit.
INCX - INTEGER.
On entry, INCX specifies the increment for the elements of X.
INCX must not be zero. Unchanged on exit.
Y - COMPLEX array of dimension at least
( 1 + ( n - 1 )*abs( INCY ) ). Before entry, the incremented
array Y must contain the n element vector y. Unchanged on exit.
INCY - INTEGER.
On entry, INCY specifies the increment for the elements of Y.
INCY must not be zero. Unchanged on exit.
A - COMPLEX array of DIMENSION ( LDA, n ).
Before entry with UPLO = 'U' or 'u', the leading n by n upper
triangular part of the array A must contain the upper triangular
part of the hermitian matrix and the strictly lower triangular
part of A is not referenced. On exit, the upper triangular part
of the array A is overwritten by the upper triangular part of
the updated matrix. Before entry with UPLO = 'L' or 'l', the
leading n by n lower triangular part of the array A must contain
the lower triangular part of the hermitian matrix and the
strictly upper triangular part of A is not referenced. On exit,
the lower triangular part of the array A is overwritten by the
lower triangular part of the updated matrix. Note that the
imaginary parts of the diagonal elements need not be set, they
are assumed to be zero, and on exit they are set to zero.
LDA - INTEGER.
On entry, LDA specifies the first dimension of A as declared in
the calling (sub) program. LDA must be at least max( 1, n ).
Unchanged on exit.
