# PCDeflationSetCorrectionFactor
Set coarse problem correction factor. The preconditioner becomes P*M^{-1} + fact*Q. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscksp.h" 
PetscErrorCode PCDeflationSetCorrectionFactor(PC pc, PetscScalar fact)
```
Logically Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***pc   -*** the preconditioner context
- ***fact -*** correction factor



## Options Database Keys

- ***-pc_deflation_correction        <false> -*** if true apply coarse problem correction
- ***-pc_deflation_correction_factor <1.0>   -*** sets coarse problem correction factor



## Note
Any non-zero fact enables the coarse problem correction.
