PURPOSE
       Reverse communication interface for the Implicitly Restarted Arnoldi
       Iteration.  For symmetric problems this reduces to a variant of the Lanczos
       method.  This method has been designed to compute approximations to a
       few eigenpairs of a linear operator OP that is real and symmetric
       with respect to a real positive semi-definite symmetric matrix B,
       i.e.

       B*OP = (OP')*B.

       Another way to express this condition is

       < x,OPy > = < OPx,y >  where < z,w > = z'Bw  .

       In the standard eigenproblem B is the identity matrix.
       ( A' denotes transpose of A)

       The computed approximate eigenvalues are called Ritz values and
       the corresponding approximate eigenvectors are called Ritz vectors.

       pssaupd is usually called iteratively to solve one of the
       following problems:

       Mode 1:  A*x = lambda*x, A symmetric
       ===> OP = A  and  B = I.

       Mode 2:  A*x = lambda*M*x, A symmetric, M symmetric positive definite
       ===> OP = inv[M]*A  and  B = M.
       ===> (If M can be factored see remark 3 below)

       Mode 3:  K*x = lambda*M*x, K symmetric, M symmetric positive semi-definite
       ===> OP = (inv[K - sigma*M])*M  and  B = M.
       ===> Shift-and-Invert mode

       Mode 4:  K*x = lambda*KG*x, K symmetric positive semi-definite,
       KG symmetric indefinite
       ===> OP = (inv[K - sigma*KG])*K  and  B = K.
       ===> Buckling mode

       Mode 5:  A*x = lambda*M*x, A symmetric, M symmetric positive semi-definite
       ===> OP = inv[A - sigma*M]*[A + sigma*M]  and  B = M.
       ===> Cayley transformed mode

       NOTE: The action of w <- inv[A - sigma*M]*v or w <- inv[M]*v
       should be accomplished either by a direct method
       using a sparse matrix factorization and solving

       [A - sigma*M]*w = v  or M*w = v,

       or through an iterative method for solving these
       systems.  If an iterative method is used, the
       convergence test must be more stringent than
       the accuracy requirements for the eigenvalue
       approximations.



ARGUMENTS
       COMM    MPI  Communicator for the processor grid.  (INPUT)

       IDO     Integer.  (INPUT/OUTPUT)
               Reverse communication flag.  IDO must be zero on the first
               call to pssaupd.  IDO will be set internally to
               indicate the type of operation to be performed.  Control is
               then given back to the calling routine which has the
               responsibility to carry out the requested operation and call
               pssaupd with the result.  The operand is given in
               WORKD(IPNTR(1)), the result must be put in WORKD(IPNTR(2)).
               (If Mode = 2 see remark 5 below)
               -------------------------------------------------------------
               IDO =  0: first call to the reverse communication interface
               IDO = -1: compute  Y = OP * X  where
                         IPNTR(1) is the pointer into WORKD for X,
                         IPNTR(2) is the pointer into WORKD for Y.
                         This is for the initialization phase to force the
                         starting vector into the range of OP.
               IDO =  1: compute  Y = OP * X where
                         IPNTR(1) is the pointer into WORKD for X,
                         IPNTR(2) is the pointer into WORKD for Y.
                         In mode 3,4 and 5, the vector B * X is already
                         available in WORKD(ipntr(3)).  It does not
                         need to be recomputed in forming OP * X.
               IDO =  2: compute  Y = B * X  where
                         IPNTR(1) is the pointer into WORKD for X,
                         IPNTR(2) is the pointer into WORKD for Y.
               IDO =  3: compute the IPARAM(8) shifts where
                         IPNTR(11) is the pointer into WORKL for
                         placing the shifts. See remark 6 below.
               IDO = 99: done
               -------------------------------------------------------------

       BMAT    Character*1.  (INPUT)
               BMAT specifies the type of the matrix B that defines the
               semi-inner product for the operator OP.
               B = 'I' -> standard eigenvalue problem A*x = lambda*x
               B = 'G' -> generalized eigenvalue problem A*x = lambda*B*x

       N       Integer.  (INPUT)
               Dimension of the eigenproblem.

       WHICH   Character*2.  (INPUT)
               Specify which of the Ritz values of OP to compute.

               'LA' - compute the NEV largest (algebraic) eigenvalues.
               'SA' - compute the NEV smallest (algebraic) eigenvalues.
               'LM' - compute the NEV largest (in magnitude) eigenvalues.
               'SM' - compute the NEV smallest (in magnitude) eigenvalues.
               'BE' - compute NEV eigenvalues, half from each end of the
                      spectrum.  When NEV is odd, compute one more from the
                      high end than from the low end.
                (see remark 1 below)

       NEV     Integer.  (INPUT)
               Number of eigenvalues of OP to be computed. 0 < NEV < N.

       TOL     Real  scalar.  (INPUT)
               Stopping criterion: the relative accuracy of the Ritz value
               is considered acceptable if BOUNDS(I) .LE. TOL*ABS(RITZ(I)).
               If TOL .LE. 0. is passed a default is set:
               DEFAULT = SLAMCH('EPS')  (machine precision as computed
                         by the LAPACK auxiliary subroutine SLAMCH).

       RESID   Real  array of length N.  (INPUT/OUTPUT)
               On INPUT:
               If INFO .EQ. 0, a random initial residual vector is used.
               If INFO .NE. 0, RESID contains the initial residual vector,
                               possibly from a previous run.
               On OUTPUT:
               RESID contains the final residual vector.

       NCV     Integer.  (INPUT)
               Number of columns of the matrix V (less than or equal to N).
               This will indicate how many Lanczos vectors are generated
               at each iteration.  After the startup phase in which NEV
               Lanczos vectors are generated, the algorithm generates
               NCV-NEV Lanczos vectors at each subsequent update iteration.
               Most of the cost in generating each Lanczos vector is in the
               matrix-vector product OP*x. (See remark 4 below).

       V       Real  N by NCV array.  (OUTPUT)
               The NCV columns of V contain the Lanczos basis vectors.

       LDV     Integer.  (INPUT)
               Leading dimension of V exactly as declared in the calling
               program.

       IPARAM  Integer array of length 11.  (INPUT/OUTPUT)
               IPARAM(1) = ISHIFT: method for selecting the implicit shifts.
               The shifts selected at each iteration are used to restart
               the Arnoldi iteration in an implicit fashion.
               -------------------------------------------------------------
               ISHIFT = 0: the shifts are provided by the user via
                           reverse communication.  The NCV eigenvalues of
                           the current tridiagonal matrix T are returned in
                           the part of WORKL array corresponding to RITZ.
                           See remark 6 below.
               ISHIFT = 1: exact shifts with respect to the reduced
                           tridiagonal matrix T.  This is equivalent to
                           restarting the iteration with a starting vector
                           that is a linear combination of Ritz vectors
                           associated with the "wanted" Ritz values.
               -------------------------------------------------------------

               IPARAM(2) = LEVEC
               No longer referenced. See remark 2 below.

               IPARAM(3) = MXITER
               On INPUT:  maximum number of Arnoldi update iterations allowed.
               On OUTPUT: actual number of Arnoldi update iterations taken.

               IPARAM(4) = NB: blocksize to be used in the recurrence.
               The code currently works only for NB = 1.

               IPARAM(5) = NCONV: number of "converged" Ritz values.
               This represents the number of Ritz values that satisfy
               the convergence criterion.

               IPARAM(6) = IUPD
               No longer referenced. Implicit restarting is ALWAYS used.

               IPARAM(7) = MODE
               On INPUT determines what type of eigenproblem is being solved.
               Must be 1,2,3,4,5; See under PURPOSE of pssaupd for the
               five modes available.

               IPARAM(8) = NP
               When ido = 3 and the user provides shifts through reverse
               communication (IPARAM(1)=0), pssaupd returns NP, the number
               of shifts the user is to provide. 0 < NP <=NCV-NEV. See Remark
               6 below.

               IPARAM(9) = NUMOP, IPARAM(10) = NUMOPB, IPARAM(11) = NUMREO,
               OUTPUT: NUMOP  = total number of OP*x operations,
                       NUMOPB = total number of B*x operations if BMAT='G',
                       NUMREO = total number of steps of re-orthogonalization.

       IPNTR   Integer array of length 11.  (OUTPUT)
               Pointer to mark the starting locations in the WORKD and WORKL
               arrays for matrices/vectors used by the Lanczos iteration.

                         that is untouched by the program.

                         with the Ritz values located in RITZ in WORKL.
               IPNTR(11): pointer to the NP shifts in WORKL. See Remark 6 below.

                          of the tridiagonal matrix T. Only referenced by
                          psseupd if RVEC = .TRUE. See Remarks.
               -------------------------------------------------------------

       WORKD   Real  work array of length 3*N.  (REVERSE COMMUNICATION)
               Distributed array to be used in the basic Arnoldi iteration
               for reverse communication.  The user should not use WORKD
               as temporary workspace during the iteration. Upon termination
               WORKD(1:N) contains B*RESID(1:N). If the Ritz vectors are desired
               subroutine psseupd uses this output.

               Private (replicated) array on each PE or array allocated on
               the front end.  See Data Distribution Note below.

       LWORKL  Integer.  (INPUT)

       INFO    Integer.  (INPUT/OUTPUT)
               If INFO .EQ. 0, a randomly initial residual vector is used.
               If INFO .NE. 0, RESID contains the initial residual vector,
                               possibly from a previous run.
               Error flag on output.
               =  0: Normal exit.
               =  1: Maximum number of iterations taken.
                     All possible eigenvalues of OP has been found. IPARAM(5)
                     returns the number of wanted converged Ritz values.
               =  2: No longer an informational error. Deprecated starting
                     with release 2 of ARPACK.
               =  3: No shifts could be applied during a cycle of the
                     Implicitly restarted Arnoldi iteration. One possibility
                     is to increase the size of NCV relative to NEV.
                     See remark 4 below.
               = -1: N must be positive.
               = -2: NEV must be positive.
               = -3: NCV must be greater than NEV and less than or equal to N.
               = -4: The maximum number of Arnoldi update iterations allowed
                     must be greater than zero.
               = -5: WHICH must be one of 'LM', 'SM', 'LA', 'SA' or 'BE'.
               = -6: BMAT must be one of 'I' or 'G'.
               = -7: Length of private work array WORKL is not sufficient.
               = -8: Error return from trid. eigenvalue calculation;
                     Informatinal error from LAPACK routine ssteqr.
               = -9: Starting vector is zero.
               = -10: IPARAM(7) must be 1,2,3,4,5.
               = -11: IPARAM(7) = 1 and BMAT = 'G' are incompatable.
               = -12: IPARAM(1) must be equal to 0 or 1.
               = -13: NEV and WHICH = 'BE' are incompatable.
               = -9999: Could not build an Arnoldi factorization.
                        IPARAM(5) returns the size of the current Arnoldi
                        factorization. The user is advised to check that
                        enough workspace and array storage has been allocated.


       Remarks
       1. The converged Ritz values are always returned in ascending
          algebraic order.  The computed Ritz values are approximate
          eigenvalues of OP.  The selection of WHICH should be made
          with this in mind when Mode = 3,4,5.  After convergence,
          approximate eigenvalues of the original problem may be obtained
          with the ARPACK subroutine psseupd.

       2. If the Ritz vectors corresponding to the converged Ritz values
          are needed, the user must call psseupd immediately following completion
          of pssaupd. This is new starting with version 2.1 of ARPACK.

       3. If M can be factored into a Cholesky factorization M = LL'
          then Mode = 2 should not be selected.  Instead one should use
          Mode = 1 with  OP = inv(L)*A*inv(L').  Appropriate triangular
          linear systems should be solved with L and L' rather
          than computing inverses.  After convergence, an approximate
          eigenvector z of the original problem is recovered by solving
          L'z = x  where x is a Ritz vector of OP.

       4. At present there is no a-priori analysis to guide the selection
          of NCV relative to NEV.  The only formal requrement is that NCV > NEV.
          However, it is recommended that NCV .ge. 2*NEV.  If many problems of
          the same type are to be solved, one should experiment with increasing
          NCV while keeping NEV fixed for a given test problem.  This will
          usually decrease the required number of OP*x operations but it
          also increases the work and storage required to maintain the orthogonal
          basis vectors.   The optimal "cross-over" with respect to CPU time
          is problem dependent and must be determined empirically.

       5. If IPARAM(7) = 2 then in the Reverse commuication interface the user
          must do the following. When IDO = 1, Y = OP * X is to be computed.
          When IPARAM(7) = 2 OP = inv(B)*A. After computing A*X the user
          must overwrite X with A*X. Y is then the solution to the linear set
          of equations B*Y = A*X.

       6. When IPARAM(1) = 0, and IDO = 3, the user needs to provide the
          NP = IPARAM(8) shifts in locations:
          1   WORKL(IPNTR(11))
          2   WORKL(IPNTR(11)+1)
                             .
                             .
                             .
          NP  WORKL(IPNTR(11)+NP-1).

          The eigenvalues of the current tridiagonal matrix are located in
          WORKL(IPNTR(6)) through WORKL(IPNTR(6)+NCV-1). They are in the
          order defined by WHICH. The associated Ritz estimates are located in
          WORKL(IPNTR(8)), WORKL(IPNTR(8)+1), ... , WORKL(IPNTR(8)+NCV-1).
