<font face="Ubuntu">Hi,<br>
<br>
I am successfully using PETSc (v3.3) in parallel to solve the
Poisson equation in 3D . The discretization is done by using
finite difference on a uniform structured grid.<br>
So far I used the conjugate gradient method, but I would like to
give a try to multigrid. <br>
The documentation describes multigrid as a preconditioner only,
thus I would like to know if it is possible to use multigrid as a
solver and, if so, if you could give my some tips to start. I am
using the DMDA context to define matrix and vectors and my code is
written Fortran.<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
Michele<br>
