If I want to compute H = L^T L where L is a sparse matrix which is an 
approximation to the
laplacian, and hence H is the biharmonic (also sparse), and if I have L as an 
MPI matrix
in PETSc, will MatMatMult work for this (assuming I create the transpose of L 
first).

In other words, does MatMatMult look at the non-zero structure only that would 
result,
or does it think the result is a dense matrix?


Thanks, Randy
