# PetscFEPushforwardHessian

Map the reference element function Hessian to real space

## Synopsis

    #include "petscfe.h"
    PetscErrorCode PetscFEPushforwardHessian(PetscFE fe, PetscFEGeom *fegeom, PetscInt Nv, PetscScalar vals[])

## Input Parameters

- fe - The `PetscFE`

- fegeom - The cell geometry

- Nv - The number of function Hessian values

- vals - The function Hessian values

## Output Parameter

- vals - The transformed function Hessian values

## Notes

This just forwards the call onto `PetscDualSpacePushforwardHessian()`.

It only handles transformations when the embedding dimension of the geometry in `fegeom` is the same as the reference dimension.

## Developer Note

It is unclear why all these one line convenience routines are desirable
