Interior Point Approach to Linear, Quadratic and Convex Programming Algorithms and Complexity
This book describes the rapidly developing field of interior point methods (IPMs). An extensive analysis is given of path-following methods for linear programming, quadratic programming and convex programming. These methods, which form a subclass of interior point methods, follow the central path, w...
