// This class implements various linear algebraic operations related
// to the Schur complement without explicitly forming it.
//
//
// Given a reactangular linear system Ax = b, where
//
// A = [E F]
//
// The normal equations are given by
//
// A'Ax = A'b
//
// |E'E E'F||y| = |E'b|
// |F'E F'F||z| |F'b|
//
// and the Schur complement system is given by
//
// [F'F - F'E (E'E)^-1 E'F] z = F'b - F'E (E'E)^-1 E'b
//
// Now if we wish to solve Ax = b in the least squares sense, one way
// is to form this Schur complement system and solve it using
// Preconditioned Conjugate Gradients.
//
// The key operation in a conjugate gradient solver is the evaluation of the
// matrix vector product with the Schur complement
//
// S = F'F - F'E (E'E)^-1 E'F
//
// It is straightforward to see that matrix vector products with S can
// be evaluated without storing S in memory. Instead, given (E'E)^-1
// (which for our purposes is an easily inverted block diagonal
// matrix), it can be done in terms of matrix vector products with E,
// F and (E'E)^-1. This class implements this functionality and other
// auxilliary bits needed to implement a CG solver on the Schur
// complement using the PartitionedMatrixView object.
//
// THREAD SAFETY: This class is nqot thread safe. In particular, the
// RightMultiply (and the LeftMultiply) methods are not thread safe as
// they depend on mutable arrays used for the temporaries needed to
// compute the product y += Sx;
