Thank you Mark! I will have a look to it. Best, Miguel

So far the code works great, however it is a little bit slow since I am not exploiting MPI for PETSc vectors. I was wondering if there is a way to perform the domain decomposition efficiently using some PETSc functionality. Any feedback is highly appreciated. It sounds like you mean "is there a way to specify a communication construct that can send my particle information automatically". We use PetscSF for that. You can see how this works with the DMSwarm class, which represents a particle discretization. You can either use that, or if it does not work for you, do the same things with your class.
