An Upper Bound for the Number of Different solutions Generated by the Primal Simplex Method with any Selection Rule of entering Variables
نویسندگان
چکیده
Kitahara and Mizuno (2011a) obtained an upper bound for the number of different solutions generated by the primal simplex method with Dantzig’s (the most negative) pivoting rule. In this paper, we obtain an upper bound with any pivoting rule which chooses an entering variable whose reduced cost is negative at each iteration. The bound is applied to special linear programming problems. We also get a similar bound for the dual simplex method.

On the number of solutions generated by the dual simplex method
In this short paper, we give an upper bound for the number of different basic feasible solutions generated by the dual simplex method with the most negative pivoting rule for LP. The bound is comparable with the bound given by Kitahara and Mizuno (2010) for the primal simplex method. We apply the result to the maximum flow problem and get a strong polynomial bound.
متن کاملA bound for the number of different basic solutions generated by the simplex method
In this short paper, we give an upper bound for the number of different basic feasible solutions generated by the simplex method for linear programming problems having optimal solutions. The bound is polynomial of the number of constraints, the number of variables, and the ratio between the minimum and the maximum values of all the positive elements of primal basic feasible solutions. When the ...
متن کاملOn the Number of Solutions Generated by Dantzig’s Simplex Method for LP with Bounded Variables∗
We give an upper bound for the number of different basic feasible solutions generated by Dantzig’s simplex method (the simplex method with the most negative pivoting rule) for LP with bounded variables by extending the result of Kitahara and Mizuno (2010). We refine the analysis by them and improve an upper bound for a standard form of LP. Then we utilize the improved bound for an LP with bound...
متن کاملA new network simplex algorithm to reduce consecutive degenerate pivots and prevent stalling
It is well known that in operations research, degeneracy can cause a cycle in a network simplex algorithm which can be prevented by maintaining strong feasible bases in each pivot. Also, in a network consists of n arcs and m nodes, not considering any new conditions on the entering variable, the upper bound of consecutive degenerate pivots is equal $left( begin{array}{c} n...
متن کاملParametric linear programming and anti-cycling pivoting rules
The traditional perturbution (or lexicographic) methods for resolving degeneracy in linear programming impose decision rules that eliminate ties in the simplex ratio rule and, therefore, restrict the choice of exiting basic variables. Bland's combinatorial pivoting rule also restricts the choice of exiting variables. Using ideas from parametric linear programming, we develop anti-cycling pivoti...
