<p>Hi, <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I want to diagonalize a huge sparse matrix and I'm using the Kryov-Schur method with harmonic extraction (command line option -eps_harmonic ) implemented in SLEPc.
<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I manually distribute a sparse matrix across several CPUs and everything works fine when:</p>
<p>- I do _not_ use harmonic extraction<br>
</p>
<p>- I use harmonic extraction on only a single CPU <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>If I try do use harmonic extraction on multiple CPUs, I get a memory corruption.</p>
<p>I'm not quite sure where to look at, but somewhere in the output, I find:</p>

<br>
</div>
<p></p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Now, I have the feeling that this might be a bug in SLEPc because, if I had messed up the matrix initialization and distribution, I should also get a memory corruption when I don't use harmonic extraction, right?</p>
<p><br>
Any suggestions what might be going on?</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Regards, <br>
