Quadratic programming represents an extremely important class of optimization problem. In this paper we propose a new (interior) approach for the general quadratic programming problem. We establish that our new method is globally and quadratically convergent published alternative interior approaches do not share such strong convergence properties for the nonconvex case. We also report on the results of preliminary numerical experiments: the results indicate that the proposed method has considerable prcatival potential.
