PurposeFor extending the common definitions and concepts of grey system theory to the optimization subject, a dual problem is proposed for the primal grey linear programming problem.Design/methodology/approachThe authors discuss the solution concepts of primal and dual of grey linear programming problems without converting them to classical linear programming problems. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the theory developed.FindingsBy using arithmetic operations between interval grey numbers, the authors prove the complementary slackness theorem for grey linear programming problem and the associated dual problem.Originality/valueComplementary slackness theorem for grey linear programming is first presented and proven. After that, a dual simplex method in grey environment is introduced and then some useful concepts are presented.

This paper is devoted to the study of solving method for a type of inverse linear semidefinite programming problem in which both the objective parameter and the right-hand side parameter of the linear semidefinite programs are required to adjust. Since such kind of inverse problem is equivalent to a mathematical program with semidefinite cone complementarity constraints which is a rather difficult problem, we reformulate it as a nonconvex semi-definte programming problem by introducing a nonsmooth partial penalty function to penalize the complementarity constraint. The penalized problem is actually a nonsmooth DC programming problem which can be solved by a sequential convex program approach. Convergence analysis of the penalty models and the sequential convex program approach are shown. Numerical results are reported to demonstrate the efficiency of our approach.

Recently, Kitahara, and Mizuno derived an upper bound for the number of different solutions generated by the primal simplex method with Dantzig's (the most negative) pivoting rule. In this paper, we obtain an upper bound with any pivoting rule which chooses an entering variable whose reduced cost is negative at each iteration. The upper bound is applied to a linear programming problem with a totally unimodular matrix. We also obtain a similar upper bound for the dual simplex method.
