3 Part I 2 Linear Complementarity Problem to find a vector x R n such that Mx+ q 0, x 0, x T (Mx+ q) =0, where M R n n and q R n. We denote this problem by LCP(M,q) and its solution by x. M is called P-matrix, if max x i(mx) i > 0 for all x 6= 0; 1 i n M-matrix, ifm 1 0, M ij 0(i6= j) for i, j =1, 2,...,n; H-matrix, if its comparison matrix is an M-matrix.

4 3 Natural Residual: r(x) :=min(x, Mx + q) Global error bound if there exists a constant τ such that kx x k τkr(x)k, x R n. Question: How to compute τ?

5 Mathias-Pang Error Bound(1990) M is a P-matrix kx x k 1+kMk kr(x)k, c(m) for any x R n, where ½ ¾ c(m) = min max x i(mx) i. kxk =1 1 i n 4 M is an H-matrix with positive diagonals c(m) (min i b i )(min i ( M 1 b) i ) (max j ( M 1 b) j ) 2 =: c(m,b), for any vector b>0, where M is the comparison matrix of M, thatis M ii = M ii Mij = M ij for i 6= j. µ(b, M) := 1+kMk c(m,b) 1+kMk c(m)

6 New Error Bound M is a P-matrix, kx x k p max d [0,1] n k(i D + DM) 1 k p kr(x)k p, where D =diag(d 1,d 2,...,d n ). M is an H-matrix with positive diagonals, max d [0,1] n k(i D + DM) 1 k p k M 1 max(λ,i)k p M is an M-matrix, max k(i D + d [0,1] DM) 1 k 1 =max f(v). n v V V = {v M T v e, v 0} 5 f(v) = max 1 i n (e + v + M T v) i.

7 Comparison M is a P-matrix, 1 kr(x)k (Mathias-Pang) 1+kMk 1 max(1, kmk ) kr(x)k (Cottle-Pang-Stone) 1 = max d [0,1] nki D + DMk kr(x)k 6 kx x k max d [0,1] n k(i D + DM) 1 k kr(x)k max(1, kmk ) kr(x)k c(m) = 1+kMk c(m) kr(x)k min(1, kmk ) c(m) kr(x)k 1+kMk c(m) kr(x)k (Mathias-Pang).

11 Example 2.(H-matrix)Cottle(1992) M = Ã 1 t 0 1!, where t New Error bound max d [0,1] 2 k(i D(I M)) 1 k p Mathias-Pang Error Bound = max (1 + d 1 t ) d 1 [0,1] = k M 1 max(i,λ)k p =1+ t, p =1,. 1+kMk c(m) t 2 (2 + t ) =O(t 3 ).

14 Part II 13 Perturbation Error Bounds for LCP x is the solution of LCP(M,q) x is the solution of LCP(M + 4M,q + 4q) Question: kx x k?, kx x k kx k?

15 Cottle-Pang-Stone (1992) 14 M is a P-matrix. The following statements hold: (i) for any two vectors q and p in R n, kx(m,q) x(m,p)k c(m) 1 kq pk, where c(m) = min kxk =1 ½ ¾ max x i(mx) i 1 i n. (ii) for each vector q R n, there exists a neighborhood U of the pair (M,q) andaconstantc 0 > 0suchthatfor any (A, b), (B,p) U, A, B are P-matrices and kx(a, b) x(b,p)k c 0 (ka Bk + kb pk ).

16 Remark The above constant c(m) isdifficult to compute, and c 0 is not specified. It is hard to use this result for verifying accuracy of a computed solution of the LCP when the data (M,q) contain errors. 15

17 New Perturbation Error Bounds M is a P-matrix, β p (M) = max d [0,1] n k(i D + DM) 1 Dk p, where D =diag(d 1,d 2,...,d n ). Using the constant β p (M), we give perturbation bounds for M being a P-matrix as follows. kx(m,q) x(m,p)k β p (M)kq pk, 16 and kx(a, b) x(b,p)k β p(m) 2 k( p) + kka Bk (1 η) 2 kx(m,q) x(a, b)k kx(m,q)k 2² 1 η β p(m)kmk + β p(m)kb pk 1 η, for A, B M := {A β p (M)kM Ak η < 1}, and kq bk ²k( q) + k.

18 If M is a P-matrix, then for k k, β (M) 1 c(m). M is an H-matrix with positive diagonals, 17 β p (M) k M 1 k p M is an M-matrix, β p (M) =km 1 k p. M is a symmetric positive definite matrix, β 2 (M) =km 1 k 2.

19 M is a positive definite matrix 18 kx(m,q) x(m,p)k 2 k( M + M T 2 ) 1 k 2 kq pk 2, kx(a, b) x(b,p)k 2 k(m+m T 2 ) 1 k 2 2k( p) + k 2 ka Bk 2 (1 η) 2 and + k(m+m T 2 ) 1 k 2 kb pk 2, 1 η kx(m,q) x(a, b)k 2 2²kMk 2 kx(m,q)k 2 1 η k(m + M T 2 ) 1 k 2 for A, B M := {A k( M+M T 2 ) 1 k 2 km Ak 2 η < 1}.

20 Example 4 19 M = Ã 1 t 0 t!, where t 1. New Error bound β (M) = max d [0,1] 2 k(i D + DM) 1 Dk =2 Mathias-Pang Error Bound 1 c(m) t (t ).

21 Relative Perturbation Bounds for LCP 20 Linear systems Suppose Ax = b, A R n n, 0 6= b R n (A + 4A)y = b + 4b, 4A R n n, 4b R n with k4ak ²kAk and k4bk ²kbk. If ²κ(A) =η < 1 and A is nonsingular, then A + 4A is nonsingular and ky xk kxk 2² 1 η κ(a).

22 P-Matrix LCP Suppose min(x, Mx + q) = 0 21 M R n n, 0 6= ( q) + R n min(y, (M + 4M)y + q + 4q) =0 4M R n n, 4q R n. with k4mk ²kMk and k4qk ² max(k( q) + k, kqk kmx+ qk). If M is a P-matrix and ²β(M)kMk = η < 1, then M + 4M is a P-matrix and ky xk kxk 2² 1 η β(m)kmk.

23 M is an H-matrix with positive diagonals, ²κ ( M) =η < 1, and 22 k4mk ²k Mk and k4qk ² max(k( q) + k, kqk kmx+ qk ) then M + 4M is an H-matrix with positive diagonals and ky xk 2² kxk 1 η κ ( M).

24 M is a symmetric positive definite matrix, ²κ 2 (M) =η < 1, and 23 k4mk 2 ²kMk 2 and k4qk 2 ² max(k( q) + k 2, kqk 2 kmx+ qk 2 ), then M + 4M is a P-matrix and ky xk 2 kxk 2 2² 1 η κ 2(M).

25 M is a positive definite matrix, and and ²κ 2 ( M + M T 2 )=η < 1 k4mk 2 ²k M + M T k4qk 2 ² max(k( q) + k 2, kqk 2 kmx+ qk 2 ) km+m T k 2 2kMk 2, then M + 4M is a positive matrix, and 2 k 2 kx yk 2 2² kxk 2 1 η κ 2( M + M T 2 ). 24

26 Remark The above inequalities indicate that the constant β(m)kmk is a measure of sensitivity of the solution x(m,q) ofthelcp(m,q). Moreover, it is interesting to see that the measure is expressed in the terms of the condition number of M, thatis, 25 κ p (M) :=km 1 k p kmk p = β p (M)kMk p for M being an M-matrix with p 1 and a symmetric positive definite matrix with p = 2. Hence, it makes connection between perturbation bounds of the LCP and perturbation bounds of the systems of linear equations in the Newton-type methods for solving the LCP.

27 Newton-type method 26 (I D k + D k M)(x x k )= r(x k ), (1) or à M I D k I D k!ã x x k y y k! = F (x k,y k ), (2) where D k is a diagonal matrix whose diagonal elements are in [0, 1]. Sensitivity of (??) and(??) will effect implementation of the methods and reliability of the computed solution.

28 Proposition For any diagonal matrix D=diag(d) with0 d i 1, i =1, 2,...,n, the following inequalities hold and κ p à κ à M I D M I D I D! I D! κ (I D + DM) 1 2 κ p(i D + DM), p K p (M) := max k(i D + d [0,1] DM) 1 k p ki D + DMk p. n Ã! 1! ˆK p (M) := max k M I M I k kã k. d [0,1] n D I D D I D ˆK (M) K (M).

29 Example 5 Let M = ai(a 1), ˆK (M) κ à and = k à =(1+a)k =(1+a) 2! M I I 0! à ai I k k I 0 Ã! 0 I I ai ai I I 0 k! 1 k K (M) = max d [0,1] n k(i D + DM) 1 k ki D + DMk max 0 ξ 1 (1 + aξ ξ) min 0 ξ 1 (1 + aξ ξ) = a. 28 For large a, ˆK (M) K (M) a 2 + a + 1 is very large.

30 Connection with Sensitivity of LCP(M,q) 29 M being an M-matrix with kmk 1 κ (M) K (M) κ (M)k max(λ,i)k. The condition number κ (M) is a measure of sensitivity of the solution of the system of linear equations for the worst case. Note that we have shown that κ (M) isa measure of sensitivity of the solution of LCP. Hence we may suggest that if Λ is not large, then the LCP is well-conditioned if and only if the system of linear equations (??) ateachstepofthenewtonmethodis well-conditioned.

33 Example 7 (Ahn,1983). We consider a tridiagonal H-matrix M = , and q = 4e Notice that M is well-conditioned for any n. From our analysis, LCP(M,q) is not sensitive to small changes in data. Let 4M and 4q be defined in Example 6.
