PCCompositeType

Determines how two or more preconditioner are composed

Synopsis

typedef enum {PC_COMPOSITE_ADDITIVE,PC_COMPOSITE_MULTIPLICATIVE,PC_COMPOSITE_SPECIAL} PCCompositeType;
 PC_COMPOSITE_ADDITIVE - results from application of all preconditioners are added together
 PC_COMPOSITE_MULTIPLICATIVE - preconditioners are applied sequentially to the residual freshly
                               computed after the previous preconditioner application
 PC_COMPOSITE_SPECIAL - This is very special for a matrix of the form alpha I + R + S
                        where first preconditioner is built from alpha I + S and second from
                        alpha I + R
