# DMPlexPartitionLabelInvert
Create a partition label of remote roots from a local root label 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscdmplex.h"   
PetscErrorCode DMPlexPartitionLabelInvert(DM dm, DMLabel rootLabel, PetscSF processSF, DMLabel leafLabel)
```

## Input Parameters

- ***dm        -*** The `DM`
- ***rootLabel -*** `DMLabel` assigning ranks to local roots
- ***processSF -*** A star forest mapping into the local index on each remote rank



## Output Parameter

- ***leafLabel -*** `DMLabel `assigning ranks to remote roots





## Note
The rootLabel defines a send pattern by mapping local points to remote target ranks. The
resulting leafLabel is a receiver mapping of remote roots to their parent rank.
