Primal-Dual Algorithms for Semidefinit Optimization Problems based on generalized trigonometric barrier function

Recently, M. Bouafoa, et al. (Journal of optimization Theory and Applications, August, 2016), investigated a new kernel function which differs from the self-regular kernel functions. The kernel function has a trigonometric Barrier Term. In this paper we generalize the analysis presented in the above paper for Semidefinit Optimization Problems (SDO). It is shown that the interior-point methods based on this function for large-update methods, the iteration bound is improved significantly. For small-update interior point methods the iteration bound is the best currently known bound for primal-dual interior point methods. The analysis for SDO deviates significantly from the analysis for linear optimization. Several new tools and techniques are derived in this paper.
