Abstract

This paper studies multistage mathematical programs with an arbitrary transient phase followed by an infinite stationary phase with linear constraints and objective. It presents conditions tinder which a derived linear program will determine an optimal solution to the infinite problem. These conditions are general and may be validated by simple algebraic tests (perhaps solving a finite linear program). No topological restrictions are placed on the model.
