Abstract

In this work the complexity of a feasible variant of a Linear Programming Predictor-Corrector algorithm specialized for transportation and assignment problems is explored. A \(O(n |\log (\epsilon )|)\) iteration complexity was achieved by proving that the step size computed by the studied algorithm is bounded at each iteration by \(\frac{\theta (4-3\theta )(1-\theta )^2}{n}\), where \(\theta \in [0,1[\). Therefore, allowing to conclude that the analyzed Predictor-Corrector algorithm that uses the 2-norm neighborhood has polynomial iteration complexity and is Q-linearly convergent.
