NAME
       ZPTTRF - compute the L*D*L' factorization of a complex Hermitian positive definite tridiagonal matrix A

SYNOPSIS
       SUBROUTINE ZPTTRF( N, D, E, INFO )

	   INTEGER	  INFO, N

	   DOUBLE	  PRECISION D( * )

	   COMPLEX*16	  E( * )

PURPOSE
       ZPTTRF  computes  the  L*D*L'  factorization  of  a complex Hermitian positive definite tridiagonal matrix A. The factorization may also be
       regarded as having the form A = U'*D*U.

ARGUMENTS
       N       (input) INTEGER
	       The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.

       D       (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (N)
	       On entry, the n diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix A.  On exit, the n diagonal elements of the diagonal matrix D from  the
	       L*D*L' factorization of A.

       E       (input/output) COMPLEX*16 array, dimension (N-1)
	       On entry, the (n-1) subdiagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix A.  On exit, the (n-1) subdiagonal elements of the unit bidiago-
	       nal factor L from the L*D*L' factorization of A.  E can also be regarded as the superdiagonal of the unit bidiagonal factor U  from
	       the U'*D*U factorization of A.

       INFO    (output) INTEGER
	       = 0: successful exit
	       < 0: if INFO = -k, the k-th argument had an illegal value
	       >  0: if INFO = k, the leading minor of order k is not positive definite; if k < N, the factorization could not be completed, while
	       if k = N, the factorization was completed, but D(N) = 0.
