On the calculation of upper variance under multiple probabilities

Probability 2023-11-22 v1 Optimization and Control

Abstract

The notion of upper variance under multiple probabilities is defined by a corresponding minimax optimization problem. This paper proposes a simple algorithm to solve the related minimax optimization problem exactly. As an application, we provide the probabilistic representation for a class of quadratic programming problems.
