چکیده

Primal-dual interior-point methods for linear complementarity and linear programming problems solve a linear system of equations to obtain a modiied Newton step at each iteration. These linear systems become increasingly ill-conditioned in the later stages of the algorithm, but the computed steps are often suuciently accurate to be useful. We use error analysis techniques tailored to the special structure of these linear systems to explain this observation and examine how theoretically superlinear convergence of a path-following algorithm is aaected by the roundoo errors.

ABS Solution of equations of second kind and application to the primal-dual interior point method for linear programming

 Abstract  We consider an application of the ABS procedure to the linear systems arising from the primal-dual interior point methods where Newton method is used to compute path to the solution. When approaching the solution the linear system, which has the form of normal equations of the second kind, becomes more and more ill conditioned. We show how the use of the Huang algorithm in the ABS cl...

Implementation of Interior-point Methods for Lp Based on Krylov Subspace Iterative Solvers with Inner-iteration Preconditioning∗

We apply novel inner-iteration preconditioned Krylov subspace methods to the interior-point algorithm for linear programming (LP). Inner-iteration preconditioners recently proposed by Morikuni and Hayami enable us to overcome the severe ill-conditioning of linear equations solved in the final phase of interior-point iterations. The employed Krylov subspace methods do not suffer from rank-defici...

A Method for Solving Convex Quadratic Programming Problems Based on Differential-algebraic equations

In this paper, a new model based on differential-algebraic equations(DAEs) for solving convex quadratic programming(CQP) problems is proposed. It is proved that the new approach is guaranteed to generate optimal solutions for this class of optimization problems. This paper also shows that the conventional interior point methods for solving (CQP) problems can be viewed as a special case of the n...

An interior-point algorithm for $P_{ast}(kappa)$-linear complementarity problem based on a new trigonometric kernel function

In this paper, an interior-point algorithm  for $P_{ast}(kappa)$-Linear Complementarity Problem (LCP) based on a new parametric trigonometric kernel function is proposed. By applying strictly feasible starting point condition and using some simple analysis tools, we prove that our algorithm has $O((1+2kappa)sqrt{n} log nlogfrac{n}{epsilon})$ iteration bound for large-update methods, which coinc...

An improved infeasible‎ ‎interior-point method for symmetric cone linear complementarity‎ ‎problem

We present an improved version of a full Nesterov-Todd step infeasible interior-point method for linear complementarityproblem over symmetric cone (Bull. Iranian Math. Soc., 40(3), 541-564, (2014)). In the earlier version, each iteration consisted of one so-called feasibility step and a few -at most three - centering steps. Here, each iteration consists of only a feasibility step. Thus, the new...
