We introduce two-stage stochastic semidefinite programs with recourse and present a Benders decomposition based linearly convergent interior point algorithms to solve them. This extends the results of Zhao, who showed that the logarithmic barrier associated with the recourse function of two-stage stochastic linear programs with recourse behaves as a strongly self-concordant barrier on the first stage solutions. In this paper we develop the necessary theory. A companion paper addresses implementation issues for the theoretical algorithms of this paper.
