E. Deklerk et al., POLYNOMIAL PRIMAL-DUAL AFFINE SCALING ALGORITHMS IN SEMIDEFINITE PROGRAMMING, Journal of combinatorial optimization, 2(1), 1998, pp. 51-69
Two primal-dual affine scaling algorithms for linear programming are e
xtended to semidefinite programming. The algorithms do not require (ne
arly) centered starting solutions, and can be initiated with any prima
l-dual feasible solution. The first algorithm is the Dikin-type affine
Scaling method of Jansen et al. (1993b) and the second the classical
affine scaling method of Monteiro et al. (1990). The extension of the
former has a worst-case complexity bound of 0(tau(0)nL) iterations, wh
ere tau(0) is a measure of centrality of the the starting solution, an
d the latter a bound of 0(tau(0)nL(2)) iterations.
