# PCMGSetRestriction
Sets the function to be used to restrict dual vectors from level l to l-1. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscksp.h" 
PetscErrorCode PCMGSetRestriction(PC pc, PetscInt l, Mat mat)
```
Logically Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***pc -*** the multigrid context
- ***l -*** the level (0 is coarsest) to supply [Do not supply 0]
- ***mat -*** the restriction matrix





## Notes
Usually this is the same matrix used also to set the interpolation
for the same level.

One can pass in the interpolation matrix or its transpose; PETSc figures
out from the matrix size which one it is.

If you do not set this, the transpose of the `Mat` set with `PCMGSetInterpolation()`
is used.
