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 />

J κ(u)v ′ =<br />

Ω (u − ψ) 2 dω.<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 />
