Proving certificate of optimality
$begingroup$
suppose we have the following linear program max{$c^Tx+z: Ax=b, x geq0$} and that B is an optimal basis with $bar{x}$ being the basic feasible solution corresponding to B. How would I be able to prove that $y=A_B^{-T}c_B$ is a certificate of optimality for $bar{x}$?
I know that I have to show
1) $A^Ty geq c$
2) $c^Tx=y^Tb$
I have been able to show 2) but am struggling on showing 1)

From $y=A_B^{-T}c_B$ you multiply with $A_B^T$ to get $A_B^Ty = c_B$.
The tableau is optimal, so $c_B^T A_B^{-1} A_N - c_N^T geq 0$, so $y^T A_N geq c_N^T$.
Combining the two you get $A^Ty geq c$.

why does the inequality follow from the fact that the basis is optimal?

@Skrrrrrtttt just perform one iteration of revised simplex, you should find the formula in the step where you check for optimality.

The tableau is optimal, so $c_B^T A_B^{-1} A_N - c_N^T geq 0$, so $y^T A_N geq c_N^T$.
