It is shown that the expected number of steps for solving Murty's exponential example with a random permutation of variable indices is exactly equal ton, wheren is the size of the input square matrix.

Pivoting in Linear Complementarity Two Polynomial-Time Cases

We study the behavior of simple principal pivoting methods for the P-matrix linear complementarity problem (P-LCP). We solve an open problem of Morris by showing that Murty’s least-index pivot rule…

Pivoting in Linear Complementarity: Two Polynomial-Time Cases

This work solves an open problem of Morris by showing that Murty's least-index pivot rule leads to a quadratic number of iterations on Morris’s highly cyclic P-LCP examples, and shows that on K-matrix LCP instances, all pivot rules require only a linear number of iteration.

Randomized pivot algorithms for P-matrix linear complementarity problems

It is shown that orientations of the n-cube that come from simple principal pivot algorithms for the linear complementarity problem with a P-matrix properly generalize those that are obtained from linear objective functions on polytopes combinatorially equivalent to the cube.

The existence of a strongly polynomial time simplex algorithm for linear programs

It is shown that there is a simplex algorithm whose number of pivoting steps does not exceed the number of variables of a LP problem.

This thesis determines bounds on sizes of USO classes arising from pivoting in P-LCPs and concludes that P-USOs contain much more combinatorial structure, which is needed to prove polynomial runtime of an existing pivot rule or to devise superior rules for simple principal pivoting algorithms.

Criss-cross methods: A fresh view on pivot algorithms

A recent result on the existence of a short admissible pivot path to an optimal basis is given, indicating shortest pivot paths from any basis might be indeed short for criss-cross type algorithms.

The Complexity of the P-Matrix Linear Complementarity Problem

The linear complementarity problem (LCP) is a useful framework for linear and convex programming and has also many direct applications, e.g. in control theory, nance, algorithms and game theory. In…

A short proof of finiteness of Murty's principal pivoting algorithm

We give a short proof of the finiteness of Murty's principal pivoting algorithm for solving the linear complementarity problemy = Mz + q, y T z = 0,y ≥ 0,z ≥ 0 withP-matrixM.

An exponential example for Terlaky's pivoting rule for the criss-cross simplex method

It is shown that the required number of iterations may be exponential in the number of variables and constraints of the problem.

Some generalizations of the criss-cross method for the linear complementarity problem of oriented matroids

Here some generalizations of Terlaky's finite criss-cross method are presented for oriented matroid quadratic programming and two special cases (oriented matroid linear programming and the definite case) are discussed.

LINEAR COMPLEMENTARITY AND ORIENTED MATROIDS

A combinatorial abstraction of the linear complementarity theory in the setting of oriented matroids was first considered by M.J. Todd. In this paper, we take a fresh look at this abstraction, and…

Computational complexity of complementary pivot methods

The class of orthants in R n contains 2n orthants. A straight line L in R n is said to cut across an orthant C of R n if L has a nonempty intersection with the interior of C. It is well known that…
