BAND_QR
LAPACK-Style QR Factorization of Banded Matrices


BAND_QR is a FORTRAN90 library which includes LAPACK-style routines to compute the QR factorization of a banded matrix, by Alfredo Remon, Enrique Quintana-Orti, Gregorio Quintana-Orti.

The distinguishing features of these routines include the fact that

The routines, as originally developed, did not include a routine to solve linear systems A*x=b once the QR factors had been computed. A routine DGBBQRS() has been written to carry out this computation in cases where the QR factors were computed using DGBBQR2(), that is, the unblocked code.
