Portfolio managers are typically constrained by turnover limits, minimum and maximum stock positions, cardinality, a target market capitalization and sometimes the need to hew to a style (such as growth or value). In addition, portfolio managers often use multifactor stock models to choose stocks based upon their respective fundamental data. We use multiobjective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs)...

Conventionally, portfolio selection problems are solved with quadratic or linear programming models. However, the solutions obtained by these methods are in real numbers and difficult to implement because each asset usually has its minimum transaction lot. Methods considering minimum transaction lots were developed based on some linear portfolio optimization models. However, no study has ever i...

portfolio selection is considered a critically significant decision, firms have to make. as such, much research has been focused on the selection of a portfolio with a controlled level of risk and high expected return. this paper uses a new definition of risk for portfolio selection whereby risk taking is taken as a curve instead of a specific value. in this paper, a genetic algorithm is presen...

The process of project portfolio selection is crucial in many organizations, especially R&D organizations. There a need to make informed decisions on the investment various projects or lack thereof. As may continue over more than 1 year, and as there are connections between projects, not only decide which invest but also when invest. Since future benefits from be depreciated comparison with...

The liberalization and deregulation of the energy industry in the past decades have been significantly affected by changes in the strategies of energy firms. The traditionally used approach of cost minimization was no longer sufficient, risk and market behavior could no longer be ignored and the need for more appropriate optimization methods for uncertain environments was increased. Meanvarianc...

The proper description of dynamic information correlation among individual stages is very important for the construction of multi-period risk measure and the selection of optimal investment strategy. To overcome the limitations of existing random frameworks, we initially introduce a ”two-level” structure to describe the dynamic information evolution: the outer-level describes endogenous marcoma...

Portfolio selection is an important issue for researchers and practitioners. Compared with the conventional probabilistic mean-variance method, fuzzy number can better describe an uncertain environment with vagueness and ambiguity. In this paper, the portfolio selection model with transaction costs and lending is proposed by means of possibilistic mean and possibilistic variance under the assum...
