PCEisenstatSetOmega

Sets the SSOR relaxation coefficient, omega, to use with Eisenstat's trick (where omega = 1.0 by default).

Synopsis

#include "petscpc.h" 
PetscErrorCode  PCEisenstatSetOmega(PC pc,PetscReal omega)
Logically Collective on PC Many br

Input Parameters

pc - the preconditioner context Many br
omega - relaxation coefficient (0 < omega < 2) Many br

Options Database Key

-pc_eisenstat_omega <omega> -Sets omega Many br

Notes

The Eisenstat trick implementation of SSOR requires about 50% of the Many brusual amount of floating point operations used for SSOR + Krylov method; Many brhowever, the preconditioned problem must be solved with both left Many brand right preconditioning. Many br

To use SSOR without the Eisenstat trick, employ the PCSOR preconditioner, Many brwhich can be chosen with the database options Many br
