Polynomial-time algorithm for linear programming based on a kernel function with hyperbolic-logarithmic barrier term. (English) Zbl 1491.90098

Summary: In this work, we present an interior point algorithm for linear optimization problems based on a kernel function which has a hyperbolic-logarithmic function in its barrier term. This kernel function was first proposed by the authors themselves for semi-definite programming (SDP) problems in [the authors, Filomat 34, No. 12, 3957–3969 (2020; Zbl 1499.90148)]. By simple analysis tools, several properties of the proposed kernel function are used to compute the total number of iterations. We show that the worst-case iteration complexity of our algorithm for large-update methods improves the obtained iteration bounds based on the first trigonometric [M. El Ghami et al., J. Comput. Appl. Math. 236, No. 15, 3613–3623 (2012; Zbl 1242.90292)] as well as the classic kernel functions. For small-update methods, we derive the best known iteration bound. Numerical tests reveal that the proposed kernel function has promising results comparing with some existing kernel functions.
