get the vectors defining the null space

Synopsis#

#include "petscmat.h" 
PetscErrorCode MatNullSpaceGetVecs(MatNullSpace sp, PetscBool *has_const, PetscInt *n, const Vec **vecs)

Not Collective

Input Parameter#

  • sp - null space object

Output Parameters#

  • has_const - PETSC_TRUE if the null space contains the constant vector, otherwise PETSC_FALSE

  • n - number of vectors (excluding constant vector) in the null space

  • vecs - orthonormal vectors that span the null space (excluding the constant vector), NULL if n is 0

Note#

These vectors and the array are owned by the MatNullSpace and should not be destroyed or freeded by the caller
