subroutine zlarft (direct, storev, n, k, v, ldv, tau, t, ldt)
ZLARFT forms the triangular factor T of a block reflector H = I - vtvH

ZLARFT forms the triangular factor T of a block reflector H = I - vtvH  

Purpose:

 ZLARFT forms the triangular factor T of a complex block reflector H
 of order n, which is defined as a product of k elementary reflectors.

 If DIRECT = 'F', H = H(1) H(2) . . . H(k) and T is upper triangular;

 If DIRECT = 'B', H = H(k) . . . H(2) H(1) and T is lower triangular.

 If STOREV = 'C', the vector which defines the elementary reflector
 H(i) is stored in the i-th column of the array V, and

    H  =  I - V * T * V**H

 If STOREV = 'R', the vector which defines the elementary reflector
 H(i) is stored in the i-th row of the array V, and

    H  =  I - V**H * T * V

Parameters

DIRECT

          DIRECT is CHARACTER*1
          Specifies the order in which the elementary reflectors are
          multiplied to form the block reflector:
          = 'F': H = H(1) H(2) . . . H(k) (Forward)
          = 'B': H = H(k) . . . H(2) H(1) (Backward)

STOREV

          STOREV is CHARACTER*1
          Specifies how the vectors which define the elementary
          reflectors are stored (see also Further Details):
          = 'C': columnwise
          = 'R': rowwise

N

          N is INTEGER
          The order of the block reflector H. N >= 0.

K

          K is INTEGER
          The order of the triangular factor T (= the number of
          elementary reflectors). K >= 1.

V

          V is COMPLEX*16 array, dimension
                               (LDV,K) if STOREV = 'C'
                               (LDV,N) if STOREV = 'R'
          The matrix V. See further details.

LDV

          LDV is INTEGER
          The leading dimension of the array V.
          If STOREV = 'C', LDV >= max(1,N); if STOREV = 'R', LDV >= K.

TAU

          TAU is COMPLEX*16 array, dimension (K)
          TAU(i) must contain the scalar factor of the elementary
          reflector H(i).

T

          T is COMPLEX*16 array, dimension (LDT,K)
          The k by k triangular factor T of the block reflector.
          If DIRECT = 'F', T is upper triangular; if DIRECT = 'B', T is
          lower triangular. The rest of the array is not used.

LDT

          LDT is INTEGER
          The leading dimension of the array T. LDT >= K.

Further Details:

  The shape of the matrix V and the storage of the vectors which define
  the H(i) is best illustrated by the following example with n = 5 and
  k = 3. The elements equal to 1 are not stored.

  DIRECT = 'F' and STOREV = 'C':         DIRECT = 'F' and STOREV = 'R':

               V = (  1       )                 V = (  1 v1 v1 v1 v1 )
                   ( v1  1    )                     (     1 v2 v2 v2 )
                   ( v1 v2  1 )                     (        1 v3 v3 )
                   ( v1 v2 v3 )
                   ( v1 v2 v3 )

  DIRECT = 'B' and STOREV = 'C':         DIRECT = 'B' and STOREV = 'R':

               V = ( v1 v2 v3 )                 V = ( v1 v1  1       )
                   ( v1 v2 v3 )                     ( v2 v2 v2  1    )
                   (  1 v2 v3 )                     ( v3 v3 v3 v3  1 )
                   (     1 v3 )
                   (        1 )
