Abstract:

We study Graver test sets for linear two-stage stochastic integer programs and show that test sets can be decomposed into finitely many building blocks whose number is independent on the number of scenarios of the stochastic program. We present a finite algorithm to compute the building blocks directly, without prior knowledge of test set vectors. Once computed, building blocks can be employed to solve the stochastic program by a simple augmentation scheme, again without explicit knowledge of test set vectors. Finally, we report preliminary computational experience.
