PCSPAISetEpsilon

Set the tolerance for the SPAI preconditioner

Synopsis

#include "petscpc.h" 
PetscErrorCode  PCSPAISetEpsilon(PC pc,double epsilon1)

Input Parameters

pc - the preconditioner Many br
eps - epsilon (default .4) Many br

Notes: Espilon must be between 0 and 1. It controls the Many brquality of the approximation of M to the inverse of Many brA. Higher values of epsilon lead to more work, more Many brfill, and usually better preconditioners. In many Many brcases the best choice of epsilon is the one that Many brdivides the total solution time equally between the Many brpreconditioner and the solver. Many br
