Abstract

In this paper we show that the primal-dual Dikin affine scaling algorithm for linear programming of Jansen. Roos and Terlaky enhances an asymptotical\(O(\sqrt n L)\) complexity by using corrector steps. We also show that the result remains valid when the method is applied to positive semi-definite linear complementarity problems.
