On the chaotic behavior of the Primal--Dual Affine--Scaling Algorithm for Linear Optimization
arXiv:1409.6108 · doi:10.1063/1.4902900
Abstract
We study a one-parameter family of quadratic maps, which serves as a template for interior point methods. It is known that such methods can exhibit chaotic behavior, but this has been verified only for particular linear optimization problems. Our results indicate that this chaotic behavior is generic.
