uBlas does not provide such high level algorithms. You can try to use 
lapack bindings (available in files section of ublas mail list). The 
bindings are still work in progress, subject to change, and they wrap 
only very limited subset of lapack algos.

I don't have hands on experience with lapack bindings, but I am going to 
try them very soon. Also I would suggest to post questions on ublas ml.
I'll crosspost there.
