4 4 / 25 Extensive Form 2-Stage Stochastic Linear Program K (EF ) : min c T x + p k qk T y k s.t. Ax = b k=1 T k x + Wy k = h k, k = 1,..., K x 0, y k 0, k = 1,..., K K realizations of random vector ξ, with probabilities p k, k = 1,..., K Randomness: q k, h k, T k y k : second-stage decision given realization k
5 5 / 25 L-Shaped Master Problem We know that K V (x) = {min p k qk T y k Wy k = h k T k x, y k 0} k=1 is a piecewise linear function of x Define master problem as (M) : min z = c T x + θ (1) s.t. Ax = b D l x d l, l = 1,..., r (2) E l x + θ e l, l = 1,..., s (3) x 0, θ R Feasibility cuts: equation 2 Optimality cuts: equation 3
6 6 / 25 Multicut L-Shaped Master Problem We also know that Q(x, ξ k ) = {min qk T y k Wy k = h k T k x, y k 0} is a piecewise linear function of x The multicut L-shaped method master problem is K (M) : min z = c T x + θ k (4) s.t. Ax = b k=1 D l x d l, l = 1,..., r (5) E l(k) x + θ k e l(k), l(k) = 1,..., s k, k = 1,..., K (6) x 0
7 L-Shaped Optimality Cuts 7 / 25 Consider a trial first-stage decision x v Let πk v be simplex multipliers of second-stage problem: min w = qk T y s.t. Wy = h k T k x v y 0 e s+1 E s+1 x supports V (x) at x v, where E s+1 = e s+1 = K p k (πk v )T T k (7) k=1 K p k (πk v )T h k (8) k=1
8 8 / 25 Multicut L-Shaped Optimality Cuts Consider a trial first-stage decision x v Let πk v be simplex multipliers of second-stage problem: min w = qk T y s.t. Wy = h k T k x v y 0 e sk +1 E sk +1x supports Q(x, ξ k ) at x v, where E sk +1 = p k (πk v )T T k (9) e sk +1 = p k (πk v )T h k (10)

11 L-Shaped Versus Multicut 11 / 25 V(x) θ v e s+1 E s+1 x x v
12 L-Shaped Versus Multicut 12 / 25 Q(x, ξ a ) θ v a / p a e sa +1 E s a +1 x θ v b /p b Q(x, ξ b ) e sb +1 E s b +1 x x v
13 Alternative Formulation of Master 13 / 25 Alternatively, cuts can support Q(x, ξ k ) instead of p k Q(x, ξ k ) K (M) : min z = c T x + p k θ k s.t. Ax = b k=1 D l x d l, l = 1,..., r E l(k) x + θ k e l(k), l(k) = 1,..., s k, k = 1,..., K x 0 E sk +1 = (π v k )T T k, e sk +1 = (π v k )T h k
14 14 / 25 The L-Shaped Algorithm Step 0. Set r = s = v = 0 Step 1. Solve master problem (M). Let (x v, θ v ) be an optimal solution. If s = 0 (no optimality cuts), remove θ from (M) and set θ 0 = Step 2. If x / K 2, add feasibility cut (equation 2) and return to Step 1. Otherwise, go to Step 3. K 2 = {x y : Wy = h k T k x, y 0, k = 1,..., K } Step 3. Compute E s+1, e s+1. Let w v = e s+1 E s+1 x v. If θ v w v, stop with x v an optimal solution. Otherwise, set s = s + 1, add optimality cut to equation 3 and return to Step 1.
15 15 / 25 The Multicut L-Shaped Algorithm Step 0. Set r = v = 0, s k = 0, k = 1,..., K Step 1. Solve master problem (M). Let (x v, θ v 1,..., θv K ) be an optimal solution. If s k = 0 (no optimality cuts for scenario k), remove θ k from (M) and set θ v k = Step 2. If x / K 2, add feasibility cut and return to Step 1. Otherwise, go to Step 3. Step 3. If 1 θ v k < p k(π v k )T (h k T k x v ), compute E sk +1, e sk +1 and set s k = s k + 1. If θ v k p k(π v k )T (h k T k x v ) for all k = 1,..., K, stop with x v an optimal solution. Otherwise, return to Step 1. 1 Typically, less than K optimality cuts are added per iteration

18 Multicut L-Shaped Method in Example 2 18 / 25 Iteration 1, Step 1: x 1 = 0 Iteration 1, Step 3: x 1 not optimal, add cuts: θ 1 1 x 3, θ 2 2 x 3, θ 3 4 x 3 Iteration 2, Step 1: x 2 = 10, θ 2 1 = 3, θ2 2 = 8/3, θ2 3 = 2 Iteration 2, Step 3: x 2 not optimal, add cuts: θ 1 x 1 3, θ 2 x 2 3, θ 3 x 4 3 Iteration 3, Step 1: x 3 = 2, θ1 3 = 1/3, θ3 2 = 0, θ3 3 = 2/3 is optimal
19 19 / 25 Tradeoffs Multicut L-shaped method has: More detailed representation of value function (+) Larger master problem (-) Typically (not always), fewer iterations are required in multicut L-shaped method, but each iteration requires more time

23 Sequence of Value Function Approximations 23 / 25 Iteration L-shaped Multicut θ N k ω=1 pωθ ωk
24 24 / 25 Observations Multi-cut converges with fewer iterations Multi-cut incurs non-zero second stage cost in iteration 3 (L-shaped method requires 7 iterations) Iterations 5 and 6 have identical N ω=1 p ωθ ωk, does not imply convergence θ k for L-shaped need not be increasing (see iteration 12, attempt to remove nuclear) Final iterations of L-shaped (12-15) oscillate around near-optimal mix
