SGESVD(l) LAPACK driver routine (version 1.1) SGESVD(l)
NAME
SGESVD - compute the singular value decomposition (SVD) of a real M-by-N
matrix A, optionally computing the left and/or right singular vectors
SYNOPSIS
SUBROUTINE SGESVD( JOBU, JOBVT, M, N, A, LDA, S, U, LDU, VT, LDVT, WORK,
LWORK, INFO )
CHARACTER JOBU, JOBVT
INTEGER INFO, LDA, LDU, LDVT, LWORK, M, N

)
PURPOSE
SGESVD computes the singular value decomposition (SVD) of a real M-by-N
matrix A, optionally computing the left and/or right singular vectors. The
SVD is written
A = U * SIGMA * transpose(V)
where SIGMA is an M-by-N matrix which is zero except for its min(m,n) diag-
onal elements, U is an M-by-M orthogonal matrix, and V is an N-by-N orthog-
onal matrix. The diagonal elements of SIGMA are the singular values of A;
they are real and non-negative, and are returned in descending order. The
first min(m,n) columns of U and V are the left and right singular vectors
of A.
Note that the routine returns V**T, not V.
ARGUMENTS
JOBU (input) CHARACTER*1
Specifies options for computing all or part of the matrix U:
= 'A': all M columns of U are returned in array U:
= 'S': the first min(m,n) columns of U (the left singular vectors)
are returned in the array U; = 'O': the first min(m,n) columns of
U (the left singular vectors) are overwritten on the array A; =
'N': no columns of U (no left singular vectors) are computed.
JOBVT (input) CHARACTER*1
Specifies options for computing all or part of the matrix V**T:
= 'A': all N rows of V**T are returned in the array VT;
= 'S': the first min(m,n) rows of V**T (the right singular vec-
tors) are returned in the array VT; = 'O': the first min(m,n) rows
of V**T (the right singular vectors) are overwritten on the array
A; = 'N': no rows of V**T (no right singular vectors) are com-
puted.
JOBVT and JOBU cannot both be 'O'.
M (input) INTEGER
The number of rows of the input matrix A. M >= 0.
N (input) INTEGER
The number of columns of the input matrix A. N >= 0.
A (input/output) REAL array, dimension (LDA,N)
On entry, the M-by-N matrix A. On exit, if JOBU = 'O', A is
overwritten with the first min(m,n) columns of U (the left singular
vectors, stored columnwise); if JOBVT = 'O', A is overwritten with
the first min(m,n) rows of V**T (the right singular vectors, stored
rowwise); if JOBU .ne. 'O' and JOBVT .ne. 'O', the contents of A
are destroyed.
LDA (input) INTEGER
The leading dimension of the array A. LDA >= max(1,M).
S (output) REAL array, dimension (min(M,N))
The singular values of A, sorted so that S(i) >= S(i+1).
U (output) REAL array, dimension (LDU,UCOL)
(LDU,M) if JOBU = 'A' or (LDU,min(M,N)) if JOBU = 'S'. If JOBU =
'A', U contains the M-by-M orthogonal matrix U; if JOBU = 'S', U
contains the first min(m,n) columns of U (the left singular vec-
tors, stored columnwise); if JOBU = 'N' or 'O', U is not refer-
enced.
LDU (input) INTEGER
The leading dimension of the array U. LDU >= 1; if JOBU = 'S' or
'A', LDU >= M.
VT (output) REAL array, dimension (LDVT,N)
If JOBVT = 'A', VT contains the N-by-N orthogonal matrix V**T; if
JOBVT = 'S', VT contains the first min(m,n) rows of V**T (the right
singular vectors, stored rowwise); if JOBVT = 'N' or 'O', VT is not
referenced.
LDVT (input) INTEGER
The leading dimension of the array VT. LDVT >= 1; if JOBVT = 'A',
LDVT >= N; if JOBVT = 'S', LDVT >= min(M,N).
WORK (workspace/output) REAL array, dimension (LWORK)
On exit, if INFO = 0, WORK(1) returns the optimal LWORK; if INFO >
0, WORK(2:MIN(M,N)) contains the unconverged superdiagonal elements
of an upper bidiagonal matrix B whose diagonal is in S (not neces-
sarily sorted). B satisfies A = U * B * VT, so it has the same
singular values as A, and singular vectors related by U and VT.
LWORK (input) INTEGER
The dimension of the array WORK. LWORK >= 1. LWORK >=
MAX(3*MIN(M,N)+MAX(M,N),5*MIN(M,N)-4). For good performance, LWORK
should generally be larger.
INFO (output) INTEGER
= 0: successful exit.
< 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value.
> 0: if SBDSQR did not converge, INFO specifies how many superdi-
agonals of an intermediate bidiagonal form B did not converge to
zero. See the description of WORK above for details.
