Abstract
We give a unifying approach to various primal-dual interior point methods by performing the analysis in ‘the space of complementary products’, or ν-space, which is closely related to the use of weighted logarithmic barrier functions. We analyze central and weighted path- following methods, Dikin-path-following methods, variants of a shifted barrier method and the cone-affine scaling method, efficient centering strategies, and efficient strategies for computing weighted centerss
