Abstract

In this paper, we propose an infeasible-interior-point algorithm for linear programning based on the affine scaling algorithm by Dikin. The search direction of the algorithm is composed of two directions, one for satisfying feasibility and the other for aiming at optimality. Both directions are affine scaling directions of certain linear programming problems. Global convergence of the algorithm is proved under a reasonable nondegeneracy assumption. A summary of analogous global convergence results without any nondegeneracy assumption obtained in [17] is also given.
