The communicator used to construct the IS must be the same communicator as used to construct the matrix, in your case PETSC_COMM_WORLD.<br/>

I will add an error check in the maint branch to catch these bugs in the future.<br/>
<br/>
It just so happens that you can use the PETSC_COMM_SELF communicator for AIJ matrices.<br/>

What I want to do is to calculate the matrix product C=A*B' between two sparse matrices A=(A11 0 , A21 0) and B=(B11 0 , B21 0) where C will be dense in the end but I just want to calculate some selected entries C_ij of C. At the moment I extract submatricies for the corresponding rows and columns,<br/>
