Symmetric Indefinite Factorization Object

DESCRIPTION:
These are objects of class "lu.Hermitian" They represent the symmetric indefinite factorization of a real symmetric or complex Hermitian matrix.

GENERATION:
This class of objects is returned from the lu.Hermitian function to represent a symmetric indefinite factorization.

METHODS:
The "lu.Hermitian" class of objects has methods for the following generic functions: det, expand, facmul, rcond, solve

STRUCTURE:
The following component must be included in a legitimate "lu.Hermitian" object:
factors:
a matrix in which the triangular and block diagonal factors are stored. There is an attribute "uplo" associated with this matrix indicating whether or not the triangular factor is upper or lower triangular.
pivot:
the permutation applied to the original matrix to achieve the symmetric indefinite factorization.
