Abstract: A new homotopy method, called boundary moving combined homotopy method, for solving convex programming was presented. Existence and conv ergence of a homotopy path were proved under only Slater’s condition and a coercive condition. In contrast to the existed combined homotopy interior point methods, the start point needs not to be an interior point of the feasible set, so the new method is more convenient to use. Some numerical examples are given to show its efficiency.

Key words: nonlinear programming, convex programming, homotopy method
