Fully Polynomial Time Approximation Schemes for Stochastic Dynamic Programs

We present a framework for obtaining fully polynomial time approximation schemes (FPTASs) for stochastic univariate dynamic programs with either convex or monotone single-period cost functions. This framework is developed through the establishment of two sets of computational rules, namely, the calc...
