I'm sorry but I still can't understand how to put an input as these
parameters. It is the first time I saw 'const' for IS. If it doesn't
refer IS, then as a parameter for row and column indices, how should I
give them as a valid input? It still should be an IS, right?
Lastly, I tried to use in the form:
IS idUi;
ISCreateStride(PETSC_COMM_WORLD,siz,0,1,&idUi);
Mat *submat;
MatCreateSubMatrices(U,nev,&idUi,&idUi,MAT_INITIAL_MATRIX,&submat);
where nev = 4, siz = 72 and U is 72*4 matrix.
But then, the error becomes about the matrix, U:

Before I used &idUi, I tried to use just idUi (without & sign) and it
didn't work, so I decided to try using this way, since may be 'const'
refers this one. But how can my matrix be of wrong type? It is MPI
Dense.
Thanks!
