Abstract

In this paper, we study a general path-following model for linear programming. Generalized barrier functions for linear programming are defined to create an ideal interior trajectory for path-following. The key components required for a generic algorithm, including the moving directions and criterion of closeness are discussed. A generic path-following algorithm is proposed and sufficient conditions for convergence and polynomality proofs are derived.
