Tolerance approach to sensitivity analysis in linear complementarity problems

In this paper, we apply the tolerance approach proposed by Wendell for sensitivity analysis in linear programs to study sensitivity analysis in linear complementarity problems. In the tolerance approach, we find the range or the maximum tolerance within which the coefficients of the right-hand side of the problem can vary simultaneously and independently such that the solution of the original and the perturbed problems have the same index set of nonzero elements.The work of the first author was completed while he was at Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, Virginia.
