In this paper, we improve the infeasible full-Newton interior-point algorithm presented by Mansouri et al. [A full-Newton step [Formula: see text] infeasible interior-point algorithm for linear complementarity problems, Nonlinear Anal. Real World Appl. 12 (2011) 545–561] for monotone linear complementarity problems (MLCPs). In each iteration of Mansouri’s algorithm two types of full-Newton steps are used, one feasibility step and some ordinary (centering) steps. In this paper, we use a new search direction, and reduce the number of the centering steps, so that only one centering step is needed. We prove that the complexity of the algorithm is as good as the best-known complexity for infeasible interior-point methods for MLCPs.

This paper presents a path-following full-Newton step interior-point algorithm for solving monotone linear complementarity problems. Under new choices of the defaults of the updating barrier parameter [Formula: see text] and the threshold [Formula: see text] which defines the size of the neighborhood of the central-path, we show that the short-step algorithm has the best-known polynomial complexity, namely, [Formula: see text]. Finally, some numerical results are reported to show the efficiency of our algorithm.
