Rārangi ihirangi:
- Chance constraints yield non-convex feasible regions in general. In particular, when the uncertain parameters are modeled by a Wasserstein ball, arXiv:1806.07418 and arXiv:1809.00210 showed that the distributionally robust (pessimistic) chance constraint admits a mixed-integer conic representation. This paper identifies sufficient conditions that lead to convex feasible regions of chance constraints with Wasserstein ambiguity. First, when uncertainty arises from the right-hand side of a pessimistic joint chance constraint, we show that the ensuing feasible region is convex if the Wasserstein ball is centered around a log-concave distribution (or, more generally, an $α$-concave distribution with $α\geq -1$). In addition, we propose a block coordinate ascent algorithm and prove its convergence to global optimum, as well as the rate of convergence. Second, when uncertainty arises from the left-hand side of a pessimistic two-sided chance constraint, we show the convexity if the Wasserstein ball is centered around an elliptical and star-unimodal distribution. In addition, we propose a family of second-order conic inner approximations, and we bound their approximation error and prove their asymptotic exactness. Furthermore, we extend the convexity results to optimistic chance constraints.
