On homogeneous and self-dual algorithms for LCP

Abstract

We present some generalizations of a homogeneous and self-dual linear programming (LP) algorithm to solving the monotone linear complementarity problem (LCP). Again, while it achieves the best known interior-point iteration complexity, the algorithm does not need to use any “big-M” number, and it detects LCP infeasibility by generating a certificate. To our knowledge, this is the first interior-point and infeasible-starting algorithm for the LCP with these desired features.
