Duality for Linear Chance-constrained Optimization Problems

چکیده
In this paper we deal with linear chance-constrained optimization problems, a class of problems which naturally arise in practical applications in finance, engineering, transportation and scheduling, where decisions are made in presence of uncertainty. After giving the deterministic equivalent formulation of a linear chance-constrained optimization problem we construct a conjugate dual problem to it. Then we provide for this primal-dual pair weak sufficient conditions which ensure strong duality. In this way we generalize some results recently given in the literature. We also apply the general duality scheme to a portfolio optimization problem, a fact that allow us to derive necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for it.

SOME PROPERTIES FOR FUZZY CHANCE CONSTRAINED PROGRAMMING
Convexity theory and duality theory are important issues in math- ematical programming. Within the framework of credibility theory, this paper rst introduces the concept of convex fuzzy variables and some basic criteria. Furthermore, a convexity theorem for fuzzy chance constrained programming is proved by adding some convexity conditions on the objective and constraint functions. Finally,...
متن کاملOn the duality of quadratic minimization problems using pseudo inverses
In this paper we consider the minimization of a positive semidefinite quadratic form, having a singular corresponding matrix $H$. We state the dual formulation of the original problem and treat both problems only using the vectors $x in mathcal{N}(H)^perp$ instead of the classical approach of convex optimization techniques such as the null space method. Given this approach and based on t...
متن کاملExponential membership function and duality gaps for I-fuzzy linear programming problems
Fuzziness is ever presented in real life decision making problems. In this paper, we adapt the pessimistic approach tostudy a pair of linear primal-dual problem under intuitionistic fuzzy (I-fuzzy) environment and prove certain dualityresults. We generate the duality results using exponential membership and non-membership functions to represent thedecision maker’s satisfaction and dissatisfacti...

Determination a sequence of extracting ore is one of the most important problems in mine annual production scheduling. Production scheduling affects mining performance especially in a poly-metallic open pit mine with considering the imposed operational and physical constraints mandated by high levels of reliability in relation to the obtained actual results. One of the important operational con...
متن کاملOn distributionally robust joint chance-constrained problems
Introduction: A chance constrained optimization problem involves constraints with stochastic data that are required to be satisfied with a pre-specified probability. When the underlying distribution of the stochastic data is not known precisely, an often used model is to require the chance constraints to hold for all distributions in a given family. Such a problem is known as a distributionally...
