Abstract

This paper establishes sufficient conditions for the connectedness of nontrivial subsets of the solution set to linear complementarity systems with special structure. Connectedness may be important to investigate stability and sensitivity questions, parametric problems, and for extending a Lemke-type method to a new class of problems. Such a property may help in analyzing the structure of the feasible region by checking the explicitly given matrices of the resulting conditions. From the point of view of geometry, the question is how to analyze the combined geometrical object consisting of a Riemannian manifold, a pointed cone, and level sets determined by linear inequalities.
