I need to find the spectrum of the a large linear system (over 100,000 unknowns). Option -ksp_compute_eigenvalues_explicitly ran out of memory since the matrix is too big, then -ksp_compute_eigenvalues only gave a small number of eigenvalues (around 30). My questions are:<br>
<br>
1. Is the number of computed eigenvalues determined by the number of GMRES iterations to converge?<br>
2. Can PETSc give the extreme eigenvalues now that the number of computed eigenvalues is limited?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>It will help to understand why you want these.</div><div><br></div><div> Matt</div><div>
