Abstract

We consider a class of stochastic nonlinear complementarity problems. We first reformulate the stochastic complementarity problem as a stochastic programming model. Based on the reformulation, we then propose a penalty-based sample average approximation method and prove its convergence. Finally, we report on some numerical test results to show the efficiency of our method.
