Summary of the lecture
Optimization problems involving stochastic models occur in many areas of of science and engineering. These lectures are aimed at presenting theoretical foundations and recent advances in theory and applications of the stochastic programming approach to such problems. In particular we discuss modeling questions, computational complexity of solving static and multistage stochastic problems, risk averse and distributionally robust approaches and some popular numerical algorithms.
