Abstract

In this article, we present a weaker version of the class of generalized positive subdefinite matrices introduced by Crouzeix and Komlósi [J.P. Crouzeix and S. Komlósi, The Linear Complementarity Problem and the Class of Generalized Positive Subdefinite Matrices, Applied Optimization, Vol. 59, Kluwer, Dordrecht, 2001, pp. 45–63], which is new in the literature, and obtain some properties of weak generalized positive subdefinite (WGPSBD) matrices. We show that this weaker class of matrices is also captured by row-sufficient matrices introduced by Cottle et al. [R.W. Cottle, J.S. Pang, and V. Venkateswaran, Sufficient matrices and the linear complementarity problem, Linear Algebra Appl. 114/115 (1989), pp. 231–249] and show that for WGPSBD matrices under appropriate assumptions, the solution set of a linear complementarity problem is the same as the set of Karush–Kuhn–Tucker-stationary points of the corresponding quadratic programming problem. This further extends the results obtained in an earlier paper by Neogy and Das [S.K. Neogy and A.K. Das, Some properties of generalized positive subdenite matrices, SIAM J. Matrix Anal. Appl. 27 (2006), pp. 988–995].
