EPSELPA#

EPSELPA = “elpa” - A wrapper to ELPA [Auckenthaler et al., 2011].

Notes#

Only available for Hermitian problems.

ELPA is a direct eigensolver, that is, the full spectrum is computed. It uses ScaLAPACK matrix distribution, and hence this solver also involves redistributing the matrices from PETSc storage to ScaLAPACK distribution, and vice versa (this is done automatically by SLEPc). Alternatively, the user may create the problem matrices already with type MATSCALAPACK.
