Hi,

great!  Thank you all for this information!  Indeed MATPYTHON cover our needs!

:)

the python equivalent of a MATSHELL is MATPYTHON, where you are in control of the implementation of the matrix vector product and other operations, see https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://petsc.org/release/petsc4py/petsc_python_types.html*petsc-python-matrix-type__;Iw!!G_uCfscf7eWS!ZD3aymPzmAu2afLqaAuAYv18OwPDU-6XWUzuj2lTZ7oyjCjYPx39HcSblHApdBD0BtxMNmBq8_BssfuDCbR1d2QRvp0ds5fft1-XkhiS$ This should cover your needs, let me know if you need methods that are not wrapped

    Hello,

    We were exploring the use of the |MatCreateComposite| function
    with |petsc4py|, but we noticed that it doesn't seem to be
    available in the Python interface
(https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://petsc.org/release/petsc4py/reference/petsc4py.PETSc.Mat.html__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!ZD3aymPzmAu2afLqaAuAYv18OwPDU-6XWUzuj2lTZ7oyjCjYPx39HcSblHApdBD0BtxMNmBq8_BssfuDCbR1d2QRvp0ds5fftzVa96TG$ <https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://petsc.org/release/petsc4py/reference/petsc4py.PETSc.Mat.html__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!fphemsDPNmxHUr-ybYLt_xWUrP575eKuI4xixwypEzd2g7uc6qMilt8etg13o24gU0vloOVrsHDXwqlgoY1T7jrcQUiv83PrXvNSYlNU$>).

    We were wondering if this is due to a technical limitation or if
    there is a better alternative to achieve the same result.

    Our goal is to create a matrix representing PTAP without
    explicitly computing the product.

    We also considered using |MatShell|, but it seems that this
    approach is not supported in |petsc4py| either.

    What do you mean?
    You can use either a MatShell or a MatPython in petsc4py out of
    the box.

    Thanks,
    Pierre

    On the other hand, we noticed that |MatCreateTranspose| is
    implemented, and it aligns somewhat with the kind of operation
    we're aiming for.

    Any insights or advice you could provide would be greatly
    appreciated!

    Thank you,

    Eric
