[petsc-users] LU Decomposition

[Немања Илић (Nemanja Ilic)]

Hello,

I figured this one myself :) As I was told in a previous email (thanks Barry), it depends on used Petsc's algorithm what will be the result of LU factoring. If matrix is created with MatCreateSeqDense and MatLUFactorSymbolic and MatLUFactorNumeric are used then the result matrix is simply "concatenated" L and U triangular matrices and elements on the diagonal are not inverted.

regards,
Nemanja
