NEPSetTwoSided#

Sets the solver to use a two-sided variant so that left eigenvectors are also computed.

Synopsis#

#include "slepcnep.h" 
PetscErrorCode NEPSetTwoSided(NEP nep,PetscBool twosided)

Logically Collective

Input Parameters#

  • nep - the nonlinear eigensolver context

  • twosided - whether the two-sided variant is to be used or not

Options Database Key#

  • -nep_two_sided - toggles the twosided flag

Notes#

If the user sets twosided=PETSC_TRUE then the solver uses a variant of the algorithm that computes both right and left eigenvectors. This is usually much more costly. This option is not available in all solvers, see table Nonlinear eigenvalue solvers available in the NEP module.

When using two-sided solvers, the problem matrices must have both the MATOP_MULT and MATOP_MULT_TRANSPOSE operations defined.
