【报告内容摘要】

Stochastic dynamic inventory management has been extensively discussed for decades, and a number of studies focus on the structure of optimal inventory policies under the periodic-review setting. It turns out these structural results significantly depend on properties of the production cost functions, which are usually characterized by convex-like properties. This work introduces two convex-like concepts and analyzes the structure of the optimal inventory policies. The first one extends almost all known similar concepts in literature and helps us to develop a uniform framework on related structural results. The second one is weaker yet leads to an elegant preservation result close to the regular convexity, and hence provides a powerful tool to analyze the performance of heuristics for more general cost functions.
