# MatFactorGetSchurComplement

Get a Schur complement matrix object using the current Schur data

### Synopsis

    #include "petscmat.h"
    PetscErrorCode MatFactorGetSchurComplement(Mat F,Mat* S)

Logically Collective on Mat

### Input Parameters

| F | - the factored matrix obtained by calling MatGetFactor()
| *S | - location where to return the Schur complement (in MATDENSE format)

### Notes

Schur complement mode is currently implemented for sequential matrices. The routine returns a dense matrix pointing to the raw data of the Schur Complement stored within the data strutures of the solver; e.g. if MatFactorInvertSchurComplement has been called, the returned matrix is actually the inverse of the Schur complement. The caller should call MatFactorRestoreSchurComplement when the object is no longer needed.
