[petsc-users] BCs for a EPS solver

You put alpha on the diagonal of A and beta on the diagonal of B to get an eigenvalue lambda=alpha/beta. If you set beta=0 then lambda=Inf. The choice depends on where your wanted eigenvalues are and how you are solving the eigenproblem. The choice of lambda=Inf suggested by Jeremy avoids inserting eigenvalues that may interfere with the problem's eigenvalues, but this is good for shift-and-invert, not for the case where you solve linear systems with B.

Anyway, this kind of manipulation may have an impact on convergence of the eigensolver or on conditioning of the linear solves. A possibly better approach is just to get rid of the BC unknowns by creating smaller A, B matrices, e.g. with MatGetSubMatrix().
