Abstract
We consider a multistage stochastic program with recourse, with discrete distribution, quadratic objective function and linear inequality constraints. We show that under reasonable assumptions, solving such a program is equivalent to solving a nested sequence of piecewise quadratic programs and we extend the algorithm presented in an earlier report to the multistage situation. Finally, we consider the application of the method to an energy investment problem and report on the results of numerical experiments.
