/*
 * Given a representation of the nonzero pattern of a symmetric matrix, A, 
 * (excluding the diagonal) perform an approximate minimum (UMFPACK/MA38-style)
 * degree ordering to compute a pivot order such that the introduction of
 * nonzeros (fill-in) in the Cholesky factors A = LL' is kept low.  At each
 * step, the pivot selected is the one with the minimum UMFAPACK/MA38-style
 * upper-bound on the external degree.  This routine can optionally perform
 * aggresive absorption (as done by MC47B in the Harwell Subroutine
 * Library).
 * 
 * The approximate degree algorithm implemented here is the symmetric analog of
 * the degree update algorithm in MA38 and UMFPACK (the Unsymmetric-pattern
 * MultiFrontal PACKage, both by Davis and Duff).  The routine is based on the
 * MA27 minimum degree ordering algorithm by Iain Duff and John Reid.
 * 
 * This routine is a translation of the original AMDBAR and MC47B routines,
 * in Fortran, with the following modifications:
 * 
 * (1) dense rows/columns are removed prior to ordering the matrix, and placed
 *	last in the output order.  The presence of a dense row/column can
 *	increase the ordering time by up to O(n^2), unless they are removed
 *	prior to ordering.
 *
 * (2) the minimum degree ordering is followed by a postordering (depth-first
 *	search) of the assembly tree.  Note that mass elimination (discussed
 *	below) combined with the approximate degree update can lead to the mass
 *	elimination of nodes with lower exact degree than the current pivot
 *	element.  No additional fill-in is caused in the representation of the
 *	Schur complement.  The mass-eliminated nodes merge with the current
 *	pivot element.  They are ordered prior to the current pivot element.
 *	Because they can have lower exact degree than the current element, the
 *	merger of two or more of these nodes in the current pivot element can
 *	lead to a single element that is not a "fundamental supernode".  The
 *	diagonal block can have zeros in it.  Thus, the assembly tree used here
 *	is not guaranteed to be the precise supernodal elemination tree (with
 *	"funadmental" supernodes), and the postordering performed by this
 *	routine is not guaranteed to be a precise postordering of the
 *	elimination tree.
 *
 * (3) input parameters are added, to control aggressive absorption and the
 *	detection of "dense" rows/columns of A.
 *
 * (4) additional statistical information is returned, such as the number of
 *	nonzeros in L, and the flop counts for subsequent LDL' and LU
 *	factorizations.  These are slight upper bounds, because of the mass
 *	elimination issue discussed above.
 *
 * (5) additional routines are added to interface this routine to MATLAB
 *	to provide a simple C-callable user-interface, to check inputs for
 *	errors, compute the symmetry of the pattern of A and the number of
 *	nonzeros in each row/column of A+A', to compute the pattern of A+A',
 *	to perform the assembly tree postordering, and to provide debugging
 *	ouput.  Many of these functions are also provided by the Fortran
 *	Harwell Subroutine Library routine MC47A.
 *
 * (6) both "int" and "long" versions are provided.  In the descriptions below
 *	and integer is and "int" or "long", depending on which version is
 *	being used.

 *	We list below the features mentioned in that paper that this code
 *	includes:
 *
 *	mass elimination:
 *	    Yes.  MA27 relied on supervariable detection for mass elimination.
 *
 *	indistinguishable nodes:
 *	    Yes (we call these "supervariables").  This was also in the MA27
 *	    code - although we modified the method of detecting them (the
 *	    previous hash was the true degree, which we no longer keep track
 *	    of).  A supervariable is a set of rows with identical nonzero
 *	    pattern.  All variables in a supervariable are eliminated together.
 *	    Each supervariable has as its numerical name that of one of its
 *	    variables (its principal variable).
 *
 *	quotient graph representation:
 *	    Yes.  We use the term "element" for the cliques formed during
 *	    elimination.  This was also in the MA27 code.  The algorithm can
 *	    operate in place, but it will work more efficiently if given some
 *	    "elbow room."
 *
 *	element absorption:
 *	    Yes.  This was also in the MA27 code.
 *
 *	external degree:
 *	    Yes.  The MA27 code was based on the true degree.
 *
 *	incomplete degree update and multiple elimination:
 *	    No.  This was not in MA27, either.  Our method of degree update
 *	    within MC47B is element-based, not variable-based.  It is thus
 *	    not well-suited for use with incomplete degree update or multiple
 *	    elimination.

 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * INPUT ARGUMENTS (unaltered):
 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 * n:  The matrix order.  Restriction:  n >= 1.
 *
 * iwlen:  The size of the Iw array.  On input, the matrix is stored in
 *	Iw [0..pfree-1].  However, Iw [0..iwlen-1] should be slightly larger
 *	than what is required to hold the matrix, at least iwlen >= pfree + n.
 *	Otherwise, excessive compressions will take place.  The recommended
 *	value of iwlen is 1.2 * pfree + n, which is the value used in the
 *	user-callable interface to this routine (amd_order.c).  The algorithm
 *	will not run at all if iwlen < pfree.  Restriction: iwlen >= pfree + n.
 *	Note that this is slightly more restrictive than the actual minimum
 *	(iwlen >= pfree), but AMD_2 will be very slow with no elbow room.
 *	Thus, this routine enforces a bare minimum elbow room of size n.
 *
 * pfree: On input the tail end of the array, Iw [pfree..iwlen-1], is empty,
 *	and the matrix is stored in Iw [0..pfree-1].  During execution,
 *	additional data is placed in Iw, and pfree is modified so that
 *	Iw [pfree..iwlen-1] is always the unused part of Iw.
 *
 * Control:  A double array of size AMD_CONTROL containing input parameters
 *	that affect how the ordering is computed.  If NULL, then default
 *	settings are used.
 *
 *	Control [AMD_DENSE] is used to determine whether or not a given input
 *	row is "dense".  A row is "dense" if the number of entries in the row
 *	exceeds Control [AMD_DENSE] times sqrt (n), except that rows with 16 or
 *	fewer entries are never considered "dense".  To turn off the detection
 *	of dense rows, set Control [AMD_DENSE] to a negative number, or to a
 *	number larger than sqrt (n).  The default value of Control [AMD_DENSE]
 *	is AMD_DEFAULT_DENSE, which is defined in amd.h as 10.
 *
 *	Control [AMD_AGGRESSIVE] is used to determine whether or not aggressive
 *	absorption is to be performed.  If nonzero, then aggressive absorption
 *	is performed (this is the default).

 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * INPUT/OUPUT ARGUMENTS:
 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * Pe:  An integer array of size n.  On input, Pe [i] is the index in Iw of
 *	the start of row i.  Pe [i] is ignored if row i has no off-diagonal
 *	entries.  Thus Pe [i] must be in the range 0 to pfree-1 for non-empty
 *	rows.
 *
 *	During execution, it is used for both supervariables and elements:
 *
 *	Principal supervariable i:  index into Iw of the description of
 *	    supervariable i.  A supervariable represents one or more rows of
 *	    the matrix with identical nonzero pattern.  In this case,
 *	    Pe [i] >= 0.
 *
 *	Non-principal supervariable i:  if i has been absorbed into another
 *	    supervariable j, then Pe [i] = FLIP (j), where FLIP (j) is defined
 *	    as (-(j)-2).  Row j has the same pattern as row i.  Note that j
 *	    might later be absorbed into another supervariable j2, in which
 *	    case Pe [i] is still FLIP (j), and Pe [j] = FLIP (j2) which is
 *	    < EMPTY, where EMPTY is defined as (-1) in amd_internal.h.
 *
 *	Unabsorbed element e:  the index into Iw of the description of element
 *	    e, if e has not yet been absorbed by a subsequent element.  Element
 *	    e is created when the supervariable of the same name is selected as
 *	    the pivot.  In this case, Pe [i] >= 0.
 *
 *	Absorbed element e:  if element e is absorbed into element e2, then
 *	    Pe [e] = FLIP (e2).  This occurs when the pattern of e (which we
 *	    refer to as Le) is found to be a subset of the pattern of e2 (that
 *	    is, Le2).  In this case, Pe [i] < EMPTY.  If element e is "null"
 *	    (it has no nonzeros outside its pivot block), then Pe [e] = EMPTY,
 *	    and e is the root of an assembly subtree (or the whole tree if
 *	    there is just one such root).
 *
 *	Dense variable i:  if i is "dense", then Pe [i] = EMPTY.
 *
 *	On output, Pe holds the assembly tree/forest, which implicitly
 *	represents a pivot order with identical fill-in as the actual order
 *	(via a depth-first search of the tree), as follows.  If Nv [i] > 0,
 *	then i represents a node in the assembly tree, and the parent of i is
 *	Pe [i], or EMPTY if i is a root.  If Nv [i] = 0, then (i, Pe [i])
 *	represents an edge in a subtree, the root of which is a node in the
 *	assembly tree.  Note that i refers to a row/column in the original
 *	matrix, not the permuted matrix.
 *
 * Info:  A double array of size AMD_INFO.  If present, (that is, not NULL),
 *	then statistics about the ordering are returned in the Info array.
 *	See amd.h for a description.

 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * INPUT/MODIFIED (undefined on output):
 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * Len:  An integer array of size n.  On input, Len [i] holds the number of
 *	entries in row i of the matrix, excluding the diagonal.  The contents
 *	of Len are undefined on output.
 *
 * Iw:  An integer array of size iwlen.  On input, Iw [0..pfree-1] holds the
 *	description of each row i in the matrix.  The matrix must be symmetric,
 *	and both upper and lower triangular parts must be present.  The
 *	diagonal must not be present.  Row i is held as follows:
 *
 *	    Len [i]:  the length of the row i data structure in the Iw array.
 *	    Iw [Pe [i] ... Pe [i] + Len [i] - 1]:
 *		the list of column indices for nonzeros in row i (simple
 *		supervariables), excluding the diagonal.  All supervariables
 *		start with one row/column each (supervariable i is just row i).
 *		If Len [i] is zero on input, then Pe [i] is ignored on input.
 *
 *	    Note that the rows need not be in any particular order, and there
 *	    may be empty space between the rows.
 *
 *	During execution, the supervariable i experiences fill-in.  This is
 *	represented by placing in i a list of the elements that cause fill-in
 *	in supervariable i:
 *
 *	    Len [i]:  the length of supervariable i in the Iw array.
 *	    Iw [Pe [i] ... Pe [i] + Elen [i] - 1]:
 *		the list of elements that contain i.  This list is kept short
 *		by removing absorbed elements.
 *	    Iw [Pe [i] + Elen [i] ... Pe [i] + Len [i] - 1]:
 *		the list of supervariables in i.  This list is kept short by
 *		removing nonprincipal variables, and any entry j that is also
 *		contained in at least one of the elements (j in Le) in the list
 *		for i (e in row i).
 *
 *	When supervariable i is selected as pivot, we create an element e of
 *	the same name (e=i):
 *
 *	    Len [e]:  the length of element e in the Iw array.
 *	    Iw [Pe [e] ... Pe [e] + Len [e] - 1]:
 *		the list of supervariables in element e.
 *
 *	An element represents the fill-in that occurs when supervariable i is
 *	selected as pivot (which represents the selection of row i and all
 *	non-principal variables whose principal variable is i).  We use the
 *	term Le to denote the set of all supervariables in element e.  Absorbed
 *	supervariables and elements are pruned from these lists when
 *	computationally convenient.
 *
 *  CAUTION:  THE INPUT MATRIX IS OVERWRITTEN DURING COMPUTATION.
 *  The contents of Iw are undefined on output.

 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * OUTPUT (need not be set on input):
 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * Nv:  An integer array of size n.  During execution, ABS (Nv [i]) is equal to
 *	the number of rows that are represented by the principal supervariable
 *	i.  If i is a nonprincipal or dense variable, then Nv [i] = 0.
 *	Initially, Nv [i] = 1 for all i.  Nv [i] < 0 signifies that i is a
 *	principal variable in the pattern Lme of the current pivot element me.
 *	After element me is constructed, Nv [i] is set back to a positive
 *	value.
 *
 *	On output, Nv [i] holds the number of pivots represented by super
 *	row/column i of the original matrix, or Nv [i] = 0 for non-principal
 *	rows/columns.  Note that i refers to a row/column in the original
 *	matrix, not the permuted matrix.
 *
 * Elen:  An integer array of size n.  See the description of Iw above.  At the
 *	start of execution, Elen [i] is set to zero for all rows i.  During
 *	execution, Elen [i] is the number of elements in the list for
 *	supervariable i.  When e becomes an element, Elen [e] = FLIP (esize) is
 *	set, where esize is the size of the element (the number of pivots, plus
 *	the number of nonpivotal entries).  Thus Elen [e] < EMPTY.
 *	Elen (i) = EMPTY set when variable i becomes nonprincipal.
 *
 *	For variables, Elen (i) >= EMPTY holds until just before the
 *	postordering and permutation vectors are computed.  For elements,
 *	Elen [e] < EMPTY holds.
 *
 *	On output, Elen [i] is the degree of the row/column in the Cholesky
 *	factorization of the permuted matrix, corresponding to the original row
 *	i, if i is a super row/column.  It is equal to EMPTY if i is
 *	non-principal.  Note that i refers to a row/column in the original
 *	matrix, not the permuted matrix.
 *
 *	Note that the contents of Elen on output differ from the Fortran
 *	version (Elen holds the inverse permutation in the Fortran version,
 *	which is instead returned in the Next array in this C version,
 *	described below).
 *
 * Last: In a degree list, Last [i] is the supervariable preceding i, or EMPTY
 *	if i is the head of the list.  In a hash bucket, Last [i] is the hash
 *	key for i.
 *
 *	Last [Head [hash]] is also used as the head of a hash bucket if
 *	Head [hash] contains a degree list (see the description of Head,
 *	below).
 *
 *	On output, Last [0..n-1] holds the permutation.  That is, if
 *	i = Last [k], then row i is the kth pivot row (where k ranges from 0 to
 *	n-1).  Row Last [k] of A is the kth row in the permuted matrix, PAP'.
 *
 * Next: Next [i] is the supervariable following i in a link list, or EMPTY if
 *	i is the last in the list.  Used for two kinds of lists:  degree lists
 *	and hash buckets (a supervariable can be in only one kind of list at a
 *	time).
 *
 *	On output Next [0..n-1] holds the inverse permutation. 	That is, if
 *	k = Next [i], then row i is the kth pivot row. Row i of A appears as
 *	the (Next[i])-th row in the permuted matrix, PAP'.
 *
 *	Note that the contents of Next on output differ from the Fortran
 *	version (Next is undefined on output in the Fortran version).

 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * LOCAL WORKSPACE (not input or output - used only during execution):
 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * Degree:  An integer array of size n.  If i is a supervariable, then
 *	Degree [i] holds the current approximation of the external degree of
 *	row i (an upper bound).  The external degree is the number of nonzeros
 *	in row i, minus ABS (Nv [i]), the diagonal part.  The bound is equal to
 *	the exact external degree if Elen [i] is less than or equal to two.
 *
 *	We also use the term "external degree" for elements e to refer to
 *	|Le \ Lme|.  If e is an element, then Degree [e] is |Le|, which is the
 *	degree of the off-diagonal part of the element e (not including the
 *	diagonal part).
 *
 * Head:   An integer array of size n.  Head is used for degree lists.
 *	Head [deg] is the first supervariable in a degree list.  All
 *	supervariables i in a degree list Head [deg] have the same approximate
 *	degree, namely, deg = Degree [i].  If the list Head [deg] is empty then
 *	Head [deg] = EMPTY.
 *
 *	During supervariable detection Head [hash] also serves as a pointer to
 *	a hash bucket.  If Head [hash] >= 0, there is a degree list of degree
 *	hash.  The hash bucket head pointer is Last [Head [hash]].  If
 *	Head [hash] = EMPTY, then the degree list and hash bucket are both
 *	empty.  If Head [hash] < EMPTY, then the degree list is empty, and
 *	FLIP (Head [hash]) is the head of the hash bucket.  After supervariable
 *	detection is complete, all hash buckets are empty, and the
 *	(Last [Head [hash]] = EMPTY) condition is restored for the non-empty
 *	degree lists.
 *
 * W:  An integer array of size n.  The flag array W determines the status of
 *	elements and variables, and the external degree of elements.
 *
 *	for elements:
 *	    if W [e] = 0, then the element e is absorbed.
 *	    if W [e] >= wflg, then W [e] - wflg is the size of the set
 *		|Le \ Lme|, in terms of nonzeros (the sum of ABS (Nv [i]) for
 *		each principal variable i that is both in the pattern of
 *		element e and NOT in the pattern of the current pivot element,
 *		me).
 *	    if wflg > W [e] > 0, then e is not absorbed and has not yet been
 *		seen in the scan of the element lists in the computation of
 *		|Le\Lme| in Scan 1 below.
 *
 *	for variables:
 *	    during supervariable detection, if W [j] != wflg then j is
 *	    not in the pattern of variable i.
 *
 *	The W array is initialized by setting W [i] = 1 for all i, and by
 *	setting wflg = 2.  It is reinitialized if wflg becomes too large (to
 *	ensure that wflg+n does not cause integer overflow).
