matrix A using the Cholesky factorization A = U**H*U or A = L*L**H com‐
puted by ZPFTRF
SYNOPSIS
SUBROUTINE ZPFTRI( TRANSR, UPLO, N, A, INFO )
CHARACTER TRANSR, UPLO
INTEGER INFO, N
COMPLEX*16 A( 0: * )
PURPOSE
ZPFTRI computes the inverse of a complex Hermitian positive definite
matrix A using the Cholesky factorization A = U**H*U or A = L*L**H com‐
puted by ZPFTRF.
ARGUMENTS
TRANSR (input) CHARACTER
= 'N': The Normal TRANSR of RFP A is stored;
= 'C': The Conjugate-transpose TRANSR of RFP A is stored.
UPLO (input) CHARACTER
= 'U': Upper triangle of A is stored;
= 'L': Lower triangle of A is stored.
N (input) INTEGER
The order of the matrix A. N >= 0.
A (input/output) COMPLEX*16 array, dimension ( N*(N+1)/2 );
On entry, the Hermitian matrix A in RFP format. RFP format is
described by TRANSR, UPLO, and N as follows: If TRANSR = 'N'
then RFP A is (0:N,0:k-1) when N is even; k=N/2. RFP A is
(0:N-1,0:k) when N is odd; k=N/2. IF TRANSR = 'C' then RFP is
the Conjugate-transpose of RFP A as defined when TRANSR = 'N'.
The contents of RFP A are defined by UPLO as follows: If UPLO =
'U' the RFP A contains the nt elements of upper packed A. If
UPLO = 'L' the RFP A contains the elements of lower packed A.
The LDA of RFP A is (N+1)/2 when TRANSR = 'C'. When TRANSR is
'N' the LDA is N+1 when N is even and N is odd. See the Note
below for more details. On exit, the Hermitian inverse of the
original matrix, in the same storage format.
INFO (output) INTEGER
= 0: successful exit
< 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
> 0: if INFO = i, the (i,i) element of the factor U or L is
zero, and the inverse could not be computed.
FURTHER DETAILS
We first consider Standard Packed Format when N is even.
We give an example where N = 6.

Let TRANSR = 'N'. RFP holds AP as follows:
For UPLO = 'U' the upper trapezoid A(0:5,0:2) consists of the last
three columns of AP upper. The lower triangle A(4:6,0:2) consists of
conjugate-transpose of the first three columns of AP upper. For UPLO =
'L' the lower trapezoid A(1:6,0:2) consists of the first three columns
of AP lower. The upper triangle A(0:2,0:2) consists of conjugate-trans‐
pose of the last three columns of AP lower. To denote conjugate we
place -- above the element. This covers the case N even and TRANSR =
'N'.

Now let TRANSR = 'C'. RFP A in both UPLO cases is just the conjugate-
transpose of RFP A above. One therefore gets:

Let TRANSR = 'N'. RFP holds AP as follows:
For UPLO = 'U' the upper trapezoid A(0:4,0:2) consists of the last
three columns of AP upper. The lower triangle A(3:4,0:1) consists of
conjugate-transpose of the first two columns of AP upper. For UPLO =
'L' the lower trapezoid A(0:4,0:2) consists of the first three columns
of AP lower. The upper triangle A(0:1,1:2) consists of conjugate-trans‐
pose of the last two columns of AP lower. To denote conjugate we
place -- above the element. This covers the case N odd and TRANSR =
'N'.
