Abstract

In a recent paper M.C. Cheng proposed new criteria for the simplex algorithm which guarantee that (i) a nonbasic variable of a basic feasible solution will remain nonbasic in an optimal basic solution, (ii) a basic variable of a basic solution will remain basic in an optimal basic solution. This comment gives (i) a slight generalization of the first result and (ii) a counterexample to the second proposition.
