NormType#

determines what type of norm to compute

Synopsis#

typedef enum {
  NORM_1         = 0,
  NORM_2         = 1,
  NORM_FROBENIUS = 2,
  NORM_INFINITY  = 3,
  NORM_1_AND_2   = 4
} NormType;

Values#

  • NORM_1 - the one norm, \(||v|| = \sum_i | v_i |\). \(||A|| = \max_j || v_*j ||\), maximum column sum

  • NORM_2 - the two norm, \(||v|| = sqrt(\sum_i |v_i|^2)\) (vectors only)

  • NORM_FROBENIUS - \(||A|| = sqrt(\sum_ij |A_ij|^2)\), same as NORM_2 for vectors

  • NORM_INFINITY - \(||v|| = \max_i |v_i|\). \(||A|| = \max_i || v_i* ||\), maximum row sum

  • NORM_1_AND_2 - computes both the 1 and 2 norm of a vector. The values are stored in two adjacent PetscReal memory locations

Note#

The v above represents a Vec while the A represents a Mat
