# syr2¶

Computes a rank-2 update of a symmetric matrix.

Description

The syr2 routines compute two scalar-vector-vector product add them and add the result to a matrix, with a symmetric matrix. The operation is defined as:

$A \leftarrow alpha*x*y^T + alpha*y*x^T + A$

where:

alpha is a scalar,

A is an n-by-n symmetric matrix,

x and y are vectors of length n.

syr2 supports the following precisions.

T

float

double

Input Parameters

queue

The queue where the routine should be executed.

upper_lower

Specifies whether A is upper or lower triangular. See oneMKL defined datatypes for more details.

n

Number of columns of A. Must be at least zero.

alpha

Scaling factor for the matrix-vector product.

x

Buffer holding input vector x. The buffer must be of size at least (1 + (n - 1)*abs(incx)). See Matrix Storage for more details.

incx

Stride of vector x.

y

Buffer holding input/output vector y. The buffer must be of size at least (1 + (n - 1)*abs(incy)). See Matrix Storage for more details.

incy

Stride of vector y.

a

Buffer holding input matrix A. Must have size at least lda*n. See Matrix Storage for more details.

lda

Leading dimension of matrix A. Must be at least n, and positive.

Output Parameters

a

Buffer holding the updated upper triangular part of the symmetric matrix A if upper_lower=upper, or the updated lower triangular part of the symmetric matrix A if upper_lower=lower.
