The usual Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions are used but in this case a linear objective function is also formulated from the set of linear equations and complementarity slackness conditions. An unboundedness challenge arises in the proposed formulation and this challenge is alleviated by construction of an additional constraint. The formulated linear programming problem can be solved efficiently by the available simplex or interior point algorithms. There is no restricted base entry in this new formulation. Some computational experiments were carried out and results are provided.展开更多

The linearization of the problem is slightly changed so that the simplex or interior point methods can solve with full speed. This is a big advantage as a complementary pivot algorithm will take roughly eight times as longer time to solve a quadratic program than the full speed simplex-method solving a linear problem of the same size. The strategy of the approach is in the assumption that the solution of the quadratic programming problem is near the feasible point closest to the stationary point assuming no constraints.展开更多

The general binary linear programming problem is transformed into a convex quadratic programming problem. The convex quadratic programming problem is then solved by interior point algorithms. This settles one of the open problems of whether P = NP or not. The worst case complexity of interior point algorithms for the convex quadratic problem is polynomial.
