Interior Point Methods 4
summary
Claims an interior-point framework that gets sqrt(d) iterations while keeping each step as cheap as a projection-based Newton solve, yielding runtimes about input-size·sqrt(d) + d^{2.5} up to polylog factors. Method builds a regularized weighted log-barrier tied to a John-ellipse rounding, tracks both primal point and canonical constraint weights, estimates leverage-score diagonals with a leverage-score JL sketch, and uses fast linear-system solvers and sampling to make the scheme practical; the prototype analysis and algorithms succeed under these tools.
