Numerical implementation<br />

3.1 Algorithm<br />

Interior point method consists of outer cycle : corrector-predictor steps and inner<br />

cycle for solely corrector step. As starting point for the approximate solution we<br />

can choose u h = 0.<br />

As we already noted the principle of the interior point method is to follow the<br />

central path. Ideally, we would like the iterations u i corresponding to κ i would<br />

lie on the central path, i.e. u i = u κi , where u κi is the exact solution of the corresponding<br />

UP. But to achieve high accuracy on each corrector step would cost us<br />

a number of iterations. So, instead, we try our approximate solutions in each corrector<br />

step to remain in the predefined neighborhood of the exact solution (picture<br />

3.1).<br />
