Abstract

We study the problem of solving linear program in the streaming model. Given a constraint matrix A ∈ ℝ^{m×n} and vectors b ∈ ℝ^m, c ∈ ℝ^n, we develop a space-efficient interior point method that optimizes solely on the dual program. To this end, we obtain efficient algorithms for various different problems: - For general linear programs, we can solve them in Õ(√n log(1/ε)) passes and Õ(n²) space for an ε-approximate solution. To the best of our knowledge, this is the most efficient LP solver in streaming with no polynomial dependence on m for both space and passes. - For bipartite graphs, we can solve the minimum vertex cover and maximum weight matching problem in Õ(√m) passes and Õ(n) space. In addition to our space-efficient IPM, we also give algorithms for solving SDD systems and isolation lemma in Õ(n) spaces, which are the cornerstones for our graph results.
