Exact Quantization of Multistage Stochastic Linear Problems
SIAM Journal on Optimization, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 533-562, March 2024. Abstract. We show that the multistage stochastic linear problem (MSLP) with an arbitrary cost distribution is equivalent to an MSLP on a finite scenario tree. We establish this exact quantization result by analyzing the polyhedral structure of MSLPs. In particular, we show that the expected cost-to-go functions are polyhedral and affine on the cells of a chamber complex, which is independent of the cost distribution. This leads to new complexity results, showing that MSLP becomes polynomial when certain parameters are fixed.
