    *  Purpose
    *  =======
    *
    *  ZPBSTF computes a split Cholesky factorization of a complex
    *  Hermitian positive definite band matrix A.
    *
    *  This routine is designed to be used in conjunction with ZHBGST.
    *
    *  The factorization has the form  A = S**H*S  where S is a band matrix
    *  of the same bandwidth as A and the following structure:
    *
    *    S = ( U    )
    *        ( M  L )
    *
    *  where U is upper triangular of order m = (n+kd)/2, and L is lower
    *  triangular of order n-m.
    *
    *  Arguments
    *  =========
    *
    *  UPLO    (input) CHARACTER*1
    *          = 'U':  Upper triangle of A is stored;
    *          = 'L':  Lower triangle of A is stored.
    *
    *  N       (input) INTEGER
    *          The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.
    *
    *  KD      (input) INTEGER
    *          The number of superdiagonals of the matrix A if UPLO = 'U',
    *          or the number of subdiagonals if UPLO = 'L'.  KD >= 0.
    *
    *  AB      (input/output) COMPLEX*16 array, dimension (LDAB,N)
    *          On entry, the upper or lower triangle of the Hermitian band
    *          matrix A, stored in the first kd+1 rows of the array.  The
    *          j-th column of A is stored in the j-th column of the array AB
    *          as follows:
    *          if UPLO = 'U', AB(kd+1+i-j,j) = A(i,j) for max(1,j-kd)<=i<=j;
    *          if UPLO = 'L', AB(1+i-j,j)    = A(i,j) for j<=i<=min(n,j+kd).
    *
    *          On exit, if INFO = 0, the factor S from the split Cholesky
    *          factorization A = S**H*S. See Further Details.
    *
    *  LDAB    (input) INTEGER
    *          The leading dimension of the array AB.  LDAB >= KD+1.
    *
    *  INFO    (output) INTEGER
    *          = 0: successful exit
    *          < 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
    *          > 0: if INFO = i, the factorization could not be completed,
    *               because the updated element a(i,i) was negative; the
    *               matrix A is not positive definite.
    *
    *  Further Details
    *  ===============
    *
    *  The band storage scheme is illustrated by the following example, when
    *  N = 7, KD = 2:
    *
    *  S = ( s11  s12  s13                     )
    *      (      s22  s23  s24                )
    *      (           s33  s34                )
    *      (                s44                )
    *      (           s53  s54  s55           )
    *      (                s64  s65  s66      )
    *      (                     s75  s76  s77 )
    *
    *  If UPLO = 'U', the array AB holds:
    *
    *  on entry:                          on exit:
    *
    *   *    *   a13  a24  a35  a46  a57   *    *   s13  s24  s53' s64' s75'
    *   *   a12  a23  a34  a45  a56  a67   *   s12  s23  s34  s54' s65' s76'
    *  a11  a22  a33  a44  a55  a66  a77  s11  s22  s33  s44  s55  s66  s77
    *
    *  If UPLO = 'L', the array AB holds:
    *
    *  on entry:                          on exit:
    *
    *  a11  a22  a33  a44  a55  a66  a77  s11  s22  s33  s44  s55  s66  s77
    *  a21  a32  a43  a54  a65  a76   *   s12' s23' s34' s54  s65  s76   *
    *  a31  a42  a53  a64  a64   *    *   s13' s24' s53  s64  s75   *    *
    *
    *  Array elements marked * are not used by the routine; s12' denotes
    *  conjg(s12); the diagonal elements of S are real.
