A Generic Interior-point Algorithm for Monotone Symmetric Cone Linear Complementarity Problems Based on a New Kernel Function

  • Published:
Journal of Mathematical Modelling and Algorithms in Operations Research

Abstract

Kernel functions play an important role in defining new search directions for interior-point algorithms for solving monotone linear complementarity problems. In this paper we present a new kernel function which yields the complexity bounds \({\mathcal O}(\sqrt{r}\log r\log\frac{r}{\epsilon})\) and \({\mathcal O}(\sqrt{r}\log\frac{r}{\epsilon})\) for large-and small-update methods, respectively, which are currently the best known bounds for such methods.
