Hi all,

I am trying to solve linear systems arising from isogeometric discretization (similar to FEM) of the Navier-Stokes equations in parallel using PETSc. The linear systems are of saddle-point type, so I would like to use the PCFIELDSPLIT preconditioner with the -pc_fieldsplit_detect_saddle_point option, Schur complement factorization and the LSC Schur complement preconditioner. I do not provide any user-defined operators for PCLSC in my codes (at least for now).

I store the matrix as a MATNEST consisting of 4 blocks (F for velocity-velocity part, Bt for velocity-pressure part, B for pressure-velocity part and NULL for pressure-pressure part). It is also convenient for me to store the blocks F, Bt and B as another MATNEST consisting of blocks corresponding to individual velocity components.


However, in this setting, I get the following error message:

/I could not find any solution for this so far. My question is: Is it possible to use the LSC preconditioner in such case, where the matrix blocks are of type MATNEST? And if so, how?

Thank you,
