# TSSetI2Jacobian
Set the function to compute the matrix dF/dU + v*dF/dU_t + a*dF/dU_tt where F(t,U,U_t,U_tt) is the function you provided with `TSSetI2Function()`.
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscts.h"
PetscErrorCode TSSetI2Jacobian(TS ts, Mat J, Mat P, TSI2Jacobian jac, void *ctx)
```
Logically Collective
## Input Parameters
- ***ts -*** the `TS` context obtained from `TSCreate()`
- ***J -*** matrix to hold the Jacobian values
- ***P -*** matrix for constructing the preconditioner (may be same as `J`)
- ***jac -*** the Jacobian evaluation routine
- ***ctx -*** user-defined context for private data for the Jacobian evaluation routine (may be `NULL`)
## Calling sequence of `jac`
```none
PetscErrorCode jac(TS ts, PetscReal t, Vec U, Vec U_t, Vec U_tt, PetscReal v, PetscReal a, Mat J, Mat P, void *ctx)
```
- ***ts -*** the `TS` context obtained from `TSCreate()`
- ***t -*** time at step/stage being solved
- ***U -*** state vector
- ***U_t -*** time derivative of state vector
- ***U_tt -*** second time derivative of state vector
- ***v -*** shift for U_t
- ***a -*** shift for U_tt
- ***J -*** Jacobian of G(U) = F(t,U,W+v*U,W'+a*U), equivalent to dF/dU + v*dF/dU_t + a*dF/dU_tt
- ***P -*** preconditioning matrix for J, may be same as J
- ***ctx -*** [optional] user-defined context for matrix evaluation routine
## Notes
The matrices `J` and `P` are exactly the matrices that are used by `SNES` for the nonlinear solve.
The matrix dF/dU + v*dF/dU_t + a*dF/dU_tt you provide turns out to be
the Jacobian of G(U) = F(t,U,W+v*U,W'+a*U) where F(t,U,U_t,U_tt) = 0 is the DAE to be solved.
The time integrator internally approximates U_t by W+v*U and U_tt by W'+a*U where the positive "shift"
parameters 'v' and 'a' and vectors W, W' depend on the integration method, step size, and past states.
