Dear Wolfgang, Thank you very much for your message. Is there a different between how DynamicSparsityPatterns and BlockDynamicSparsityPatterns behave? When you look at step-40, which is the first "MPI" step, the way the sparsity pattern is made is ( https://dealii.org/current/doxygen/deal.II/step

Bruno, I don't quite recall if we ever used the BlockDynamicSparsityPattern in a parallel context. For sure, the way you're initializing it implies that every process allocates the memory for all DoFs as it's not given the information about locally_relevant_dofs. I'd have to look up whether th

Hello, I am currently working on a parallel implementation of step-57, thus I am learning to live with BlockVectors, BlockMatrices and BlockSparsityPatterns in parallel. Originally, I thought that I could make my sparsity pattern the following way (i.e as in step-57, but distributing it afterwa
