A modified Schur-complement method for handling dense columns in interior-point methods for linear programming.

The main computational work in interior-point methods for linear programming (LP) is to solve a least-squares problem. The normal equations are often used, but if the LP constraint matrix contains a nearly dense column the normal-equations matrix will be nearly dense. Assuming that the nondense part...
