Dear All,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I having been trying to add periodic domain functionality to my code. I am able to generate a periodic mesh with gmsh and load it using dmplex. The problem is that I am unable to have a numbering of the degrees of freedom that reflects the periodicity
(they are numbered as if there was no periodicity).</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I read this thread: <a href="https://lists.mcs.anl.gov/mailman/htdig/petsc-users/2018-October/036539.html" class="">https://lists.mcs.anl.gov/mailman/htdig/petsc-users/2018-October/036539.html</a></div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">There it is mentioned that DMLocalizeCoordinates is required after loading the mesh.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">My questions are the following:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">1. Is it correct that I need to run DMLocalizeCoordinates on my DM?</div>
<div class="">2. I am currently using petsc4py but I am unable to find DMLocalizeCoordinates. Is this functionality missing or is there an alternative to it?</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Thank you for your time.</div>

<div class="">Kind regards,</div>
