Member Data Documentation

symmetric

unsigned int PETScWrappers::PreconditionParaSails::AdditionalData::symmetric

This parameter specifies the type of problem to solve:

• 0: nonsymmetric and/or indefinite problem, and nonsymmetric preconditioner
• 1: SPD problem, and SPD (factored) preconditioner
• 2: nonsymmetric, definite problem, and SPD (factored) preconditioner

Default is symmetric = 1.

Definition at line 837 of file petsc_precondition.h.

n_levels

unsigned int PETScWrappers::PreconditionParaSails::AdditionalData::n_levels

The sparsity pattern used for the approximate inverse is the pattern of a power B^m where B has been sparsified from the given matrix A, n_level is equal to m+1. Default value is n_levels = 1.

Definition at line 845 of file petsc_precondition.h.

threshold

double PETScWrappers::PreconditionParaSails::AdditionalData::threshold

Sparsification is performed by dropping nonzeros which are smaller than thresh in magnitude. Lower values of thresh lead to more accurate, but also more expensive preconditioners. Default value is thresh = 0.1. Setting thresh < 0 a threshold is selected automatically, such that -thresh represents the fraction of nonzero elements that are dropped. For example, if thresh = -0.9, then B will contain about ten percent of the nonzeros of the given matrix A.

filter

double PETScWrappers::PreconditionParaSails::AdditionalData::filter

Filtering is a post-processing procedure, filter represents a fraction of nonzero elements that are dropped after creating the approximate inverse sparsity pattern. Default value is filter = 0.05. Setting filter < 0 a value is selected automatically, such that -filter represents the fraction of nonzero elements that are dropped. For example, if thresh = -0.9, then about 90 percent of the entries in the computed approximate inverse are dropped.

output_details

bool PETScWrappers::PreconditionParaSails::AdditionalData::output_details

Setting this flag to true produces output from HYPRE, when the preconditioner is constructed.
