We perform a smoothed analysis of Renegar's condition number for linear programming by analyzing the distribution of the distance to ill-posedness of a linear program subject to a slight Gaussian perturbation. In particular, we show that for every n-by-d matrixĀ, n-vectorb, and d-vectorc satisfying Ā ,b,c F ≤ 1 and every σ ≤ 1,where A, b and c are Gaussian perturbations ofĀ,b andc of variance σ 2 and C(A, b, c) is the condition number of the linear program defined by (A, b, c). From this bound, we obtain a smoothed analysis of interior point algorithms. By combining this with the smoothed analysis of finite termination of Spielman and Teng (Math. Prog. Ser. B, 2003), we show that the smoothed complexity of interior point algorithms for linear programming is O(n 3 log(nd/σ)).
