Least-index resolution of degeneracy in linear complementarity problems with sufficient matrices

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6745357

This paper deals with the Principal Pivoting Method (PPM) for the Linear Complementarity Problem (LCP). It is shown here that when the matrix M of the LCP (q,M) is (row and column) sufficient, the incorporation of a least-index pivot selection rule in the PPM makes it a finite algorithm even when the LCP is degenerate. 10 refs.
