Abstract

We consider the objective function of a simple integer recourse problem with fixed technology matrix.

Using properties of the expected value function, we prove a relation between the convex hull of this function and the expected value function of a continuous simple recourse program.

We present an algorithm to compute the convex hull of the expected value function in case of discrete right-hand side random variables. Allowing for restrictions on the first stage decision variables, this result is then extended to the convex hull of the objective function.
