MatCreateSchurComplement

 Creates a new matrix object that behaves like the Schur complement of a matrix

Synopsis

#include "petscksp.h" 
PetscErrorCode  MatCreateSchurComplement(Mat A00,Mat Ap00,Mat A01,Mat A10,Mat A11,Mat *N)
Collective on Mat

Input Parameter

A00,A01,A10,A11 -the four parts of the original matrix (A00 is optional)

Output Parameter

N -the matrix that the Schur complement A11 - A10 ksp(A00) A01

Notes: The Schur complement is NOT actually formed! Rather this object performs the matrix-vector product by using the the formula for the Schur complement and a KSP solver to approximate the action of inv(A)

All four matrices must have the same MPI communicator

A00 and A11 must be square matrices
