Specification

#include <nag.h>
#include <nagc06.h>
void  nag_sum_fft_hermitian_3d (Integer n1, Integer n2, Integer n3, const Complex y[], double x[], NagError *fail)

Description

nag_sum_fft_hermitian_3d (c06pzc) computes the three-dimensional inverse discrete Fourier transform of a trivariate Hermitian sequence of complex data values z j1 j2 j3 , for j1=0,1,,n1-1, j2=0,1,,n2-1 and j3=0,1,,n3-1.
The discrete Fourier transform is here defined by
x^ k1 k2 k3 = 1 n1 n2 n3 j1=0 n1-1 j2=0 n2-1 j3=0 n3-1 z j1 j2 j3 × exp 2πi j1 k1 n1 + j2 k2 n2 + j3 k3 n3 ,  
where k1 = 0,1,, n1-1 , k2 = 0,1,, n2-1  and k3 = 0,1,, n3-1 . (Note the scale factor of 1 n1 n2 n3  in this definition.)
Because the input data satisfies conjugate symmetry (i.e., z j1 j2 j3  is the complex conjugate of z n1 - j1 n2 - j2 n3 - j3 ), the transformed values x^ k1 k2 k3  are real.
A call of nag_sum_fft_real_3d (c06pyc) followed by a call of nag_sum_fft_hermitian_3d (c06pzc) will restore the original data.
This function performs multiple one-dimensional discrete Fourier transforms by the fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm in Brigham (1974) and Temperton (1983).

Accuracy

Some indication of accuracy can be obtained by performing a forward transform using nag_sum_fft_real_3d (c06pyc) and a backward transform using nag_sum_fft_hermitian_3d (c06pzc), and comparing the results with the original sequence (in exact arithmetic they would be identical).

Further Comments

The time taken by nag_sum_fft_hermitian_3d (c06pzc) is approximately proportional to n1 n2 n3 log n1 n2 n3 , but also depends on the factors of n1, n2 and n3. nag_sum_fft_hermitian_3d (c06pzc) is fastest if the only prime factors of n1, n2 and n3 are 2, 3 and 5, and is particularly slow if one of the dimensions is a large prime, or has large prime factors.
Workspace is internally allocated by nag_sum_fft_hermitian_3d (c06pzc). The total size of these arrays is approximately proportional to n1 n2 n3 .
