<A HREF="../Mat/MATNEST.html#MATNEST">MATNEST</A> = "nest" - Matrix type consisting of nested submatrices, each stored separately.
<P>
<H3><FONT COLOR="#CC3333">Notes</FONT></H3>
This matrix type permits scalable use of PCFieldSplit and avoids the large memory costs of extracting submatrices.
It allows the use of symmetric and block formats for parts of multi-physics simulations.
It is usually used with DMComposite and <A HREF="../DM/DMCreateMatrix.html#DMCreateMatrix">DMCreateMatrix</A>()
