Abstract

In this paper, we establish strong duality between affinely adjustable two-stage robust linear programs and their dual semidefinite programs under a general uncertainty set, that covers most of the commonly used uncertainty sets of robust optimization. This is achieved by first deriving a new version of Farkas’ lemma for a parametric linear inequality system with affinely adjustable variables. Our strong duality theorem not only shows that the primal and dual program values are equal, but also allows one to find the value of a two-stage robust linear program by solving a semidefinite linear program. In the case of an ellipsoidal uncertainty set, it yields a corresponding strong duality result with a second-order cone program as its dual. To illustrate the efficacy of our results, we show how optimal storage cost of an adjustable two-stage lot-sizing problem under a ball uncertainty set can be found by solving its dual semidefinite program, using a commonly available software.
