摘要: The simplex algorithm using the random edge pivot-rule on any realization of a dual cyclic 4-polytope with n facets does not take more than O(n) pivot-steps. This even holds for general abstract objective functions (AOF) / acyclic unique sink orientations (AUSO). methods can be used to show analogous results products two polygons. In contrast, we that facet is slow 4-polytopes, i.e. there are AUSOs which takes at least \Omega(n^2) steps.
