Description
Summary:In this paper, we establish the polynomial complexity of a primal-dual path-following interior point algorithm for solving semidefinite optimization(SDO) problems. The proposed algorithm is based on a new kernel function which differs from the existing kernel functions in which it has a double barrier term. With this function we define a new search direction and also a new proximity function for analyzing its complexity. We show that if q1 〉 q2 〉 1, the algorithm has O((q1 + 1) nq1+1/2(q1-q2)logn/ε)and O((q1 + 1)2(q1-q2)^3q1-2q2+1√n logn/c) complexity results for large- and small-update methods, respectively.
