NAME
CHEMV - perform the matrix-vector operation y := alpha*A*x
+ beta*y,
SYNOPSIS
SUBROUTINE CHEMV ( UPLO, N, ALPHA, A, LDA, X, INCX, BETA, Y,
INCY )
COMPLEX ALPHA, BETA
INTEGER INCX, INCY, LDA, N
CHARACTER*1 UPLO
COMPLEX A( LDA, * ), X( * ), Y( * )
PURPOSE
CHEMV performs the matrix-vector operation
where alpha and beta are scalars, x and y are n element vec-
tors and A is an n by n hermitian matrix.
PARAMETERS
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.
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 con-
tain the upper triangular part of the hermitian
matrix and the strictly lower triangular part of A is
not referenced. 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 her-
mitian matrix and the strictly upper triangular part
of A is not referenced. Note that the imaginary
parts of the diagonal elements need not be set and
are assumed to be zero. Unchanged on exit.
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.
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 ele-
ments of X. INCX must not be zero. Unchanged on
exit.
BETA - COMPLEX .
On entry, BETA specifies the scalar beta. When BETA
is supplied as zero then Y need not be set on input.
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. On exit, Y is overwritten by the updated vector y.
INCY - INTEGER.
On entry, INCY specifies the increment for the ele-
ments of Y. INCY must not be zero. Unchanged on
exit.
