PCMGSetLevels

Sets the number of levels to use with MG. Must be called before any other MG routine.

Synopsis

#include "petscpcmg.h" 
PetscErrorCode  PCMGSetLevels(PC pc,PetscInt levels,MPI_Comm *comms)
Logically Collective on PC

Input Parameters

pc - the preconditioner context
levels - the number of levels
comms - optional communicators for each level; this is to allow solving the coarser problems on smaller sets of processors. Use PETSC_NULL_OBJECT for default in Fortran

Notes

If the number of levels is one then the multigrid uses the -mg_levels prefix for setting the level options rather than the -mg_coarse prefix.

Keywords

MG, set, levels, multigrid
