D.15.6.15 matrixsystem

Usage:

matrixsytem(M,A); where the M=Mt,M1,..,Mn is a list with square matrices of the same dimension as entries, and A=At,A1,..,An gives the corresponding approximations for the several variables (t,x1,..,xn) as vector. Intended to solve Mt*U_t + M1*U_x1+..+Mn*U_xn=0 as a linear sytem of partial differential equations numerically by a finite difference scheme;

Return:

type matrix; gives back the matrices B1,B2 that represent the finite difference scheme, partitioned into different time levels in the form: B1*U(t=N)=B2*U(t<N), where N is the maximal occurring degree (timelevel) of t.
