Linear Programming: A Modern Integrated Analysis

Overview

In this study, both boundary (simplex) and interior point methods are derived from the complementary slackness theorem, and the duality theorem is derived from Farkas's Lemma, which is proved as a convex separation theorem. The tedium of the simplex method is thus avoided. A proof of Kantorovich's Theorem is offered, related to the convergence of Newton's method. Of the boundary methods, the book presents the (revised) primal and the dual simplex methods. A discussion is given of the primal, dual and primal-dual affine scaling methods. In addition, the proof of the convergence under degeneracy, a bounded variable variant, and a super-linearly convergent variant of the primal affine scaling method are covered in one chapter. Polynomial barrier or path-following homotopy methods, and the projective transformation method are also covered in the interior point chapter. Besides the popular sparse Cholesky factorization and the conjugate gradient method, new methods are presented in a separate chapter on implementation.

`I recommend this book to anyone desiring a deep understanding of the simplex method, interior-point methods, and the connections between them.' Interfaces, 27:2 (1997) The book is clearly written. ... It is highly recommended to anybody wishing to get a clear insight in the field and in the role that duality plays not only from a theoretical point of view but also in connection with algorithms.'
