2.2 A predictor-corrector approach for the following the central path 17<br />

2.2.1 The corrector step<br />

For given κ > 0 we are given an approximation u ∈ V of u κ and we want to find<br />

a better approximation u + by means of Newton’s method, i.e. u + = u + δu where<br />

the so called Newton corrector δu is a solution of the problem<br />

with<br />

min φ κ,u(v) (2.1)<br />

v∈V<br />

φ κ,u (v) = J κ (u) + J κ(u)v ′ + 1 2 J′′ κ(v,v).<br />

Here J ′ κ(u) : V → R, and J ′′<br />

κ(u) : V ×V → R are<br />

and<br />

For e<strong>as</strong>e of presentation we <strong>as</strong>sume that u − ψ ≥ ε > 0 a.e. in Ω. Then J ′ (u) and<br />

J ′′ (u) are well defined. Further, it e<strong>as</strong>ily follows that φ κ,u is a continuous strictly<br />

convex functional on V and a unique minimizer δu of φ κ,u exists and satisfies<br />

J ′′<br />

κ(u)(δu,v) = −J ′ κ(u)v, ∀v ∈ V.<br />

So at this step we replaced the objective functional J κ by its quadratic approximation<br />

φ κ,u . Since we used the logarithmic barrier functions it’s sufficient here<br />

to use Taylor expansion up to the second order. Thus we can rely on Newton’s<br />

method for solving this problem.<br />

Now let us analyze the next corrector step given by the unique solution δu +<br />

of the optimization problem<br />

min φ κ,u +(v).<br />
