Abstract

A strongly polynomial-time algorithm is proposed for the strict homogeneous linear-inequality feasibility problem in the positive orthant, that is, to obtain $$x\in \mathbb {R}^n$$ x ∈ R n , such that $$Ax > 0$$ A x > 0 , $$x> 0$$ x > 0 , for an $$m\times n$$ m × n matrix $$A$$ A , $$m\ge n$$ m ≥ n . This algorithm requires $$O(p)$$ O ( p ) iterations and $$O(m^2(n+p))$$ O ( m 2 ( n + p ) ) arithmetical operations to ensure that the distance between the solution and the iteration is $$10^{-p}$$ 10 - p . No matrix inversion is needed. An extension to the non-homogeneous linear feasibility problem is presented. Copyright Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2014
