MatBackwardSolve
Solves U x = b, given a factored matrix, A = LU. D^(1/2) U x = b, given a factored symmetric matrix, A = U^T*D*U,
Synopsis
#include "petscmat.h"
PetscErrorCode MatBackwardSolve(Mat mat,Vec b,Vec x)
Neighbor-wise Collective on Mat
Input Parameters
| mat | - the factored matrix
|
| b | - the right-hand-side vector
|
Output Parameter
x -the result vector
Notes
MatSolve() should be used for most applications, as it performs
a forward solve followed by a backward solve.
The vectors b and x cannot be the same. I.e., one cannot
call MatBackwardSolve(A,x,x).
For matrix in seqsbaij format with block size larger than 1,
the diagonal blocks are not implemented as D = D^(1/2) * D^(1/2) yet.
MatForwardSolve() solves U^T*D y = b, and
MatBackwardSolve() solves U x = y.
Thus they do not provide a symmetric preconditioner.
Most users should employ the simplified KSP interface for linear solvers
instead of working directly with matrix algebra routines such as this.
See, e.g., KSPCreate().
