Abstract:This paper provides a non-interior homotopy method for nonlinear programming with general equality and inequality constraints. Under a weak assumption for a swelled feasible set as well as several basic conditions for nonlinear programming, existence and convergence of a smooth homotopy path are proven. In addition, the starting point is not needed to be a feasible interior point of the original feasible set, and can be chosen freely in a bounded ball region, hence this homotopy method can be implemented conveniently. ? 2011 IEEE.
