AN INTERIOR-POINT APPROACH TO SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS IN DEGENERATE LINEAR PROGRAMS

Abstract. We consider the interior-point approach to sensitivity analysis in linear programming developed by the authors. We investigate the quality of the interior-point bounds under degeneracy. In the case of a special degeneracy, we show that these bounds have the same nice asymptotic relationship with the optimal partition bounds as in the nondegenerate case. We prove a weaker relationship for general degenerate linear programs
