A predictor-corrector method for solving linear programs from infeasible starting points is analyzed. The method is quadratically convergent and can be combined with Ye's finite termination scheme under very general assumptions. If the starting points are large enough then the algorithm has O(nL) iteration complexity. If the ratio between feasibility and optimality at the starting points is sma...

This paper considers the development of a two-point predictor-corrector block method for solving delay differential equations. The formulae are represented in divided difference form and the algorithm is implemented in variable stepsize variable order technique. The block method produces two new values at a single integration step. Numerical results are compared with existing methods and it is ...

We consider a family of primal/primal-dual/dual search directions for the monotone LCP over the space of n n symmetric block-diagonal matrices. We consider two infeasible predictor-corrector path-following methods using these search directions, with the predictor and corrector steps used either in series (similar to the Mizuno-Todd-Ye method) or in parallel (similar to Mizuno et al./McShane's m...

We propose a uniied analysis for a class of infeasible-start predictor-corrector algorithms for semideenite programming problems, using the Monteiro-Zhang uniied direction. The algorithms are direct generalizations of the Mizuno-Todd-Ye predictor-corrector algorithm for linear programming. We show that the algorithms belonging to this class are globally convergent, provided the problem has a so...

This note points out an error in the local quadratic convergence proof of the predictorcorrector interior-point algorithm for solving the semidefinite linear complementarity problem based on the Alizadeh–Haeberly–Overton search direction presented in [M. Kojima, M. Shida, and S. Shindoh, SIAM J. Optim., 9 (1999), pp. 444–465]. Their algorithm is slightly modified and the local quadratic converg...

This paper proposes a globally convergent predictor-corrector infeasible-interiorpoint algorithm for the monotone semide nite linear complementarity problem using the AlizadehHaeberly-Overton search direction, and shows its quadratic local convergence under the strict complementarity condition.

In this work, we propose a predictor-corrector interior point method for linear programming in a primal-dual context, where the next iterate is chosen by the minimization of a polynomial merit function of three variables: the first is the steplength, the second defines the central path and the third models the weight of a corrector direction. The merit function minimization is performed by rest...

Using a predictor-corrector tactic, this paper derives new iteration schemes for unconstrained optimization. It yields a point (predictor) by some line search from the current point; then with the two points it constructs a quadratic interpolation curve to approximate some ODE trajectory; it finally determines a new point (corrector) by searching along the quadratic curve. In particular, this p...

In a recent paper, Noor and Noor [K. Inayat Noor, M. Aslam Noor, Predictor–corrector Halley method for nonlinear equations, Appl. Math. Comput., in press, doi:10.1016/j.amc.11.023] have suggested and analyzed a predictor–corrector method Halley method for solving nonlinear equations. In this paper, we modified this method by using the finite difference scheme, which has a quintic convergence. W...

We introduce a new class of numerical schemes for the solution of the Cauchy problem for non-stiff ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Our algorithms are of the predictor-corrector type; they are obtained via the decomposition of the solutions of the ODEs into combinations of appropriately chosen exponentials, whereas the classical schemes are based on the approximation of solutions by poly...
