Abstract

In this work we study the complexity of certain interior point methods, which rapidly developed since Karmarkar published his work 1984, for solving a linear program and its dual

$$\begin{gathered} \mathop {\min }\limits_x {c^T}x \mathop {\max }\limits_{y,s} {b^T}y \hfill \\ Ax = b \left( {LP} \right), {A^T}y + s = c \left( {LD} \right) \hfill \\ x \geqslant 0 s \geqslant 0. \hfill \\ \end{gathered}$$

Here A is. an m × n-matrix, c is an n-vector and b is an m-vector. Let z:= (x,s,y).
