NAME

       PZLATRA  -  compute  the trace of an N-by-N distributed matrix sub( A )
       denoting A( IA:IA+N-1, JA:JA+N-1 )

SYNOPSIS

       COMPLEX*16 FUNCTION PZLATRA( N, A, IA, JA, DESCA )

           INTEGER         IA, JA, N

           INTEGER         DESCA( * )

           COMPLEX*16      A( * )

PURPOSE

       PZLATRA computes the trace of an N-by-N distributed  matrix  sub(  A  )
       denoting A( IA:IA+N-1, JA:JA+N-1 ). The result is left on every process
       of the grid.

       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

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

       A       (local input) COMPLEX*16 pointer into the local memory
               to an array of dimension ( LLD_A, LOCc(JA+N-1)  ).  This  array
               contains  the  local pieces of the distributed matrix the trace
               is to be computed.

       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.
