       Notes
       =====

       Each  global  data  object  is  described  by an associated description
       vector.  This vector stores the information required to  establish  the
       mapping  between  an  object  element and its corresponding process and
       memory location.

       Let A be a generic term for any 2D block  cyclicly  distributed  array.
       Such a global array has an associated description vector DESCA.  In the
       following comments, the character _ should be read as  "of  the  global
       array".

       NOTATION        STORED IN      EXPLANATION
       ---------------  --------------  --------------------------------------
       DTYPE_A(global) DESCA( DTYPE_ )The descriptor type.  In this case,
                                      DTYPE_A = 1.
       CTXT_A (global) DESCA( CTXT_ ) The BLACS context handle, indicating
                                      the BLACS process grid A is distribu-
                                      ted over. The context itself is glo-
                                      bal, but the handle (the integer
                                      value) may vary.
       M_A    (global) DESCA( M_ )    The number of rows in the global
                                      array A.
       N_A    (global) DESCA( N_ )    The number of columns in the global
                                      array A.
       MB_A   (global) DESCA( MB_ )   The blocking factor used to distribute
                                      the rows of the array.
       NB_A   (global) DESCA( NB_ )   The blocking factor used to distribute
                                      the columns of the array.
       RSRC_A (global) DESCA( RSRC_ ) The process row over which the first
                                      row  of  the  array  A  is  distributed.
       CSRC_A (global) DESCA( CSRC_ ) The process column over which the
                                      first column of the array A is
                                      distributed.
       LLD_A  (local)  DESCA( LLD_ )  The leading dimension of the local
                                      array.  LLD_A >= MAX(1,LOCr(M_A)).

       Let  K  be  the  number of rows or columns of a distributed matrix, and
       assume that its process grid has dimension p x q.
       LOCr( K ) denotes the number of elements of  K  that  a  process  would
       receive  if  K  were  distributed  over  the p processes of its process
       column.
       Similarly, LOCc( K ) denotes the number of elements of K that a process
       would receive if K were distributed over the q processes of its process
       row.
       The values of LOCr() and LOCc() may be determined via  a  call  to  the
       ScaLAPACK tool function, NUMROC:
               LOCr( M ) = NUMROC( M, MB_A, MYROW, RSRC_A, NPROW ),
               LOCc(  N ) = NUMROC( N, NB_A, MYCOL, CSRC_A, NPCOL ).  An upper
       bound for these quantities may be computed by:
               LOCr( M ) <= ceil( ceil(M/MB_A)/NPROW )*MB_A
               LOCc( N ) <= ceil( ceil(N/NB_A)/NPCOL )*NB_A

ARGUMENTS

       M       (global input) INTEGER
               The number of rows to be operated on, i.e. the number  of  rows
               of the distributed submatrix sub( A ). M >= 0.

       N       (global input) INTEGER
               The  number  of  columns  to be operated on, i.e. the number of
               columns of the distributed submatrix sub( A ). N >= 0.

       A       (local input/local output) DOUBLE PRECISION pointer into the
               local memory to an array of  dimension  (LLD_A,  LOCc(JA+N-1)).
               On  entry,  the  local  pieces of the M-by-N distributed matrix
               sub( A ) which is to be factored. On exit, if M >= N, the lower
               triangle   of   the  distributed  submatrix  A(  IA+M-N:IA+M-1,
               JA:JA+N-1 ) contains the N-by-N lower triangular matrix L; if M
               <=  N,  the  elements  on  and below the (N-M)-th superdiagonal
               contain the M by N lower trapezoidal matrix  L;  the  remaining
               elements, with the array TAU, represent the orthogonal matrix Q
               as a product of elementary reflectors  (see  Further  Details).
               IA       (global  input)  INTEGER  The  row index in the global
               array A indicating the first row of sub( A ).

       JA      (global input) INTEGER
               The column index in the global array  A  indicating  the  first
               column of sub( A ).

       DESCA   (global and local input) INTEGER array of dimension DLEN_.
               The array descriptor for the distributed matrix A.

       TAU     (local output) DOUBLE PRECISION, array, dimension LOCc(JA+N-1)
               This  array  contains  the  scalar  factors  of  the elementary
               reflectors. TAU is tied to the distributed matrix A.

       WORK    (local workspace/local output) DOUBLE PRECISION array,
               dimension (LWORK) On exit,  WORK(1)  returns  the  minimal  and
               optimal LWORK.

       LWORK   (local or global input) INTEGER
               The dimension of the array WORK.  LWORK is local input and must
               be at least LWORK >= NB_A * ( Mp0 + Nq0 + NB_A ), where

               IROFF = MOD( IA-1, MB_A ), ICOFF = MOD( JA-1, NB_A ),  IAROW  =
               INDXG2P( IA, MB_A, MYROW, RSRC_A, NPROW ), IACOL = INDXG2P( JA,
               NB_A, MYCOL, CSRC_A, NPCOL ), Mp0   =  NUMROC(  M+IROFF,  MB_A,
               MYROW,  IAROW,  NPROW  ), Nq0   = NUMROC( N+ICOFF, NB_A, MYCOL,
               IACOL, NPCOL ),

               and NUMROC, INDXG2P are ScaLAPACK tool functions; MYROW, MYCOL,
               NPROW  and  NPCOL  can  be determined by calling the subroutine
               BLACS_GRIDINFO.

               If LWORK = -1, then LWORK is global input and a workspace query
               is assumed; the routine only calculates the minimum and optimal
               size for all work arrays. Each of these values is  returned  in
               the  first  entry of the corresponding work array, and no error
               message is issued by PXERBLA.

       INFO    (global output) INTEGER
               = 0:  successful exit
               < 0:  If the i-th argument is an array and the j-entry  had  an
               illegal  value, then INFO = -(i*100+j), if the i-th argument is
               a scalar and had an illegal value, then INFO = -i.

FURTHER DETAILS

       The matrix Q is represented as a product of elementary reflectors

          Q = H(ja+k-1) . . . H(ja+1) H(ja), where k = min(m,n).

       Each H(i) has the form

          H(i) = I - tau * v * v’

       where tau is a real scalar, and v is a real vector with
       v(m-k+i+1:m) = 0 and v(m-k+i) = 1; v(1:m-k+i-1) is stored  on  exit  in
       A(ia:ia+m-k+i-2,ja+n-k+i-1), and tau in TAU(ja+n-k+i-1).
