Multiparametric analysis of conic linear optimization based on the lift-and-project procedure

We study how the lift-and-project procedure applies to the multiparametric analysis of conic linear optimization (CLO) problems. We first introduce the concept of a pair of primal and dual conic representable sets and define the set-valued mappings between them. We then explore a novel kind of duality of mpCLOs, which allows us to generalize as well as treat previous results for the mulitparametric analysis in a unified framework. In particular, we discuss the behavior of the optimal partition of a conic representable set. This leads to the invariant region decomposition of a conic representable set that is more general than the known results in the literatures. Finally, we study the properties of the optimal objective values as a function of that parametric vectors. All results are corroborated by examples having correlation.

The existence of a strongly polynomial time simplex algorithm for linear programs

It is well known that the most challenging question in optimization and discrete geometry is whether there is a strongly polynomial time simplex algorithm for linear programs (LPs). This paper gives a positive answer to this question by using the parameter analysis technique presented by us (arXiv:2006.08104). We show that there is a simplex algorithm whose number of pivoting steps does not exceed the number of variables of a LP problem.
