NEPRefineScheme

The scheme used for solving linear systems during iterative refinement.

Synopsis

typedef enum { NEP_REFINE_SCHEME_SCHUR    = 1,
               NEP_REFINE_SCHEME_MBE      = 2,
               NEP_REFINE_SCHEME_EXPLICIT = 3 } NEPRefineScheme;

Values

• NEP_REFINE_SCHEME_SCHUR - use the Schur complement

• NEP_REFINE_SCHEME_MBE - use the mixed block elimination (MBE) scheme

• NEP_REFINE_SCHEME_EXPLICIT - build the full matrix explicitly

Note

Iterative refinement may be very costly, due to the expensive linear solves. These linear systems have a particular structure that can be exploited in different ways, as described in [Campos and Roman, 2016]. See NEPSetRefine() for additional details.
