The proposed function has some properties that are easy for checking. These properties enable us to improve the polynomial complexity bound of a large-update interior-point method (IPM) to O(√n log nlog n/e), which is the currently best known polynomial complexity bound for the algorithm with the large-update method. Numerical tests were conducted to investigate the behavior of the algorithm with different parameters p, q and θ, where p is the growth degree parameter, q is the barrier degree of the kernel function and θ is the barrier update parameter.展开更多
