04:05:52 <shachaf> Hmm, the simplex algorithm sure seems very similar to Gaussian elimination.
04:08:16 <int-e> sure, especially when you do it on an extended tableaux
04:09:07 <shachaf> Uh oh, I don't know what that is.
04:12:21 <shachaf> Ugh, so many things to learn.
04:12:44 <shachaf> Apparently this is what Gröbner bases are about too?
04:14:17 <int-e> Or is that called a full tableau? The one that has an identity matrix rather than labeling rows with basic variables
04:15:56 <shachaf> Is that similar to an augmented matrix thing?
04:16:27 <int-e> Gröbner bases have more of a gcd flavor to me. There's a connection (Bezout's identity can be turned into a linear combination of rows comprised of the coefficients of the polynomials, shifted... cf. resultants)
04:16:29 <shachaf> I thought with basic variables you still ended up having an identity matrix, though I didn't work through examples very much so maybe that's not maintained.
04:18:02 <int-e> the identity matrix can be completely implicit, but then the variable exchange step (swapping a basic variable and a non-basic one) loses some of its Gaussian elimination flavor.
04:18:45 <shachaf> Hmm, I see, I think.
04:25:16 <shachaf> Hmm, can phase 2 of the simplex method start with any feasible point, or does it need to be on a boundary of some sort?
04:25:51 -!- razetime has quit (Quit: https://quassel-irc.org - Chat comfortably. Anywhere.).
04:30:21 <int-e> I think you'll have a boundary point by force (simply by the presence of that identity matrix in the full tableau)
04:31:38 <shachaf> Oh, you mean a boundary point in the full problem when you add the slack variables, not in the original problem?
04:32:02 <shachaf> Hmm, does that sentence even make sense?
04:34:01 <shachaf> I should implement this so I know what's going on.
04:38:26 <int-e> The slack variables don't really change the set of feasible solutions... they embed it in a higher-dimensional space.
04:39:25 <int-e> For example, rather than x,y >= 0, x+y <= 1, you have x,y,z >= 0 and x+y+z = 1. Both sets are two-dimensional triangles.
04:39:51 <int-e> But one of them is embedded in R^3
04:41:08 <int-e> And the point of this is... the boundary is not affected by whether you take slack variables into account or not.
04:42:27 <int-e> Or... more abstractly... You can project the slack variables away (projecting from R^(n+m) to R^n), and that's a bijection because you can recompute the slack variables from the constraints.
04:43:17 <shachaf> Right, fair enough.
04:43:57 <shachaf> So why do you end up with a boundary point by force?
04:45:27 <int-e> because you've set the maximum number of variables to 0... meaning that the solution touches the corresponding hyperplanes
04:46:51 <int-e> I mean, when you start with a *basic* feasible solution. Which you do if you reconstruct the solution from the tableau (setting the non-basic variables to 0)
05:16:06 <shachaf> Should I think of the variables in the dual linear program as corresponding the slack variables in the primal program, or is that going down the wrong path?
05:18:47 <int-e> dunno
05:19:50 <int-e> I have not internalized the Farkas lemma.

05:37:49 <shachaf> What about when you start solving an LP problem directly in phase 2, when all constraints are nonnegative and you can pick the 0 vector as a starting point?
05:37:50 -!- Lord_of_Life_ has changed nick to Lord_of_Life.
05:37:54 <shachaf> Presumably that's not on the boundary.
05:38:16 <shachaf> Or, hmm, maybe it is. Right.
