In this paper we study the properties of the analytic central path of asemidefinite programming problem under perturbation of a set of inputparameters. Specifically, we analyze the behavior of solutions on the centralpath with respect to changes on the right hand side of the...

In this paper we generalize the primal--dual cone affine scaling algorithm of Sturm and Zhang to semidefinite programming.We show in this paper that the underlying ideas of the cone affine scaling algorithm can be naturely applied to semidefiniteprogramming, resulting in a new algorithm....

In this paper we consider optimization problems defined by a quadraticobjective function and a finite number of quadratic inequality constraints.Given that the objective function is bounded over the feasible set, we presenta comprehensive study of the conditions under which the optimal solution...

In this paper we consider properties of the central path and the analytic center of the optimalface in the context of parametric linear programming. We first show that if the right-hand sidevector of a standard linear program is perturbed, then the analytic center of the optimal face isone-side...
