MatColoringCreate

Creates a matrix coloring context.

Synopsis

#include "petscmat.h"  
PetscErrorCode MatColoringCreate(Mat m,MatColoring *mcptr)
Collective on MatColoring

Input Parameters

comm -MPI communicator

Output Parameter

mcptr -the new MatColoring context

Options Database Keys

-mat_coloring_type - the type of coloring algorithm used
-mat_coloring_maxcolors - the maximum number of relevant colors, all nodes not in a color are in maxcolors+1
-mat_coloring_distance - compute a distance 1,2,... coloring.
-mat_coloring_view - print information about the coloring and the produced index sets
-mat_coloring_test - debugging option that prints all coloring incompatibilities
-mat_is_coloring_test - debugging option that throws an error if MatColoringApply() generates an incorrect iscoloring

Notes: A distance one coloring is useful, for example, multi-color SOR. A distance two coloring is for the finite difference computation of Jacobians (see MatFDColoringCreate()).

Some coloring types only support distance two colorings
