[Trilinos-Users] Transposing a Tpetra::MultiVector

[Hoemmen, Mark]

Greetings!

Could you please post feature requests as issues on our GitHub site?

https://github.com/trilinos/Trilinos/issues/

Thanks!  The feature request here is for an update operation 

Y := alpha * X^T + beta * Y

where X and Y are Tpetra::MultiVector instances, and alpha and beta are scalars.  Could you please explain your use case?  This is not an operation that commonly arises in iterative linear solvers or eigensolvers.

Thanks and best regards,
Mark Hoemmen

>Is there a possible way to do this directly in Tpetra? I can (ab)use the multiply member function, but there must be a more canonical way. Even more so because this would mean that I have to make an allocation. The dimensions of the objects I am considering are rather low, but it is still something I wish to prevent.
