  • Description: Multistage stochastic programs are prototypical for nonlinear programs with an inherent tree structure inducing characteristic sparsity patterns in the KKT systems of interior methods. We present an integrated modeling and solution approach for such tree-sparse programs. Three closely related natural formulations having desirable control-theoretic properties lead to KKT system solution algorithms with linear complexity. Application examples from computational finance and process engineering demonstrate the efficiency of the approach.
