FNSetMethod
Selects the method to be used to evaluate functions of matrices.
Synopsis
#include "slepcfn.h"
PetscErrorCode FNSetMethod(FN fn,PetscInt meth)
Logically Collective
Input Parameters
| fn | - the math function context
|
| meth | - an index identifying the method
|
Options Database Key
| -fn_method <meth> | - Sets the method
|
Notes
In some FN types there are more than one algorithms available for computing
matrix functions. In that case, this function allows choosing the wanted method.
If meth is currently set to 0 (the default) and the input argument A of
FNEvaluateFunctionMat() is a symmetric/Hermitian matrix, then the computation
is done via the eigendecomposition of A, rather than with the general algorithm.
