In order to analyze uncertain phenomena in real world, the concept of fuzzy random variables is widely employed in model building. In dealing with fuzzy data, defuzzification plays a central role. In this paper, portfolio selection problems are dealt as interval values. We calculate the expected values, variance and covariance by using the estimated parameters of underlying probability distribu...

recently, the economic crisis has resulted in instability in stock exchange market and this has caused high volatilities in stock value of exchanged firms. under these conditions, considering uncertainty for a favorite investment is more serious than before. multi-objective portfolio selection (return, liquidity, risk and initial cost of investment objectives) using minmax fuzzy goal programmin...

the purpose of this paper is to survey of muslim consumer behavior with respect to a given portfolio. in other words, in this paper, a set of specified assets with returns in certain state be considered as the individual's budget constraint. in this regard, factors affecting the portfolio selection by the individual in islamic economics will be discussed. also the subject of consumption in...

Portfolio Selection: How to Integrate Complex Constraints For the standard Mean-Variance model for portfolio selection with linear constraints, there are several algorithms that can efficiently compute both a single point on the Pareto front and even the whole front. Unfortunately, commonly used constraints (e.g. cardinality constraints or buy-in thresholds) result in the optimization problem t...

In this article, I explicitly solve dynamic portfolio choice problems, up to the solution of an ordinary differential equation (ODE), when the asset returns are quadratic and the agent has a constant relative risk aversion (CRRA) coefficient. My solution includes as special cases many existing explicit solutions of dynamic portfolio choice problems. I also present three applications that are no...

Over sixty years ago, Markowitz introduced the mean-variance efficient frontier to finance. While mean-variance is still the predominant model in portfolio selection, it has endured many criticisms. One serious one is that it does not allow for additional criteria. The difficulty is that the efficient frontier becomes a surface. With it now possible to compute such a surface, we provide an over...

In this paper, we compare the portfolio allocation model of multifractal detrended Fluctuation approach with the modern efficient frontier model and the asset allocation model from Chinese institution fund, the risk-return performance of the multifractal detrended Fluctuation turns out to be more optimal portfolio allocation than that from Chinese institution fund and the conclusions have impli...

this paper discusses the portfolio selection based on robust optimization. since the parameters values of the portfolio optimization problem such as price of the stock, dividends, returns, etc. of per share are unknown, variable and their distributions are uncertain because of the market and price volatility, therefore, there is a need for the development and application of methodologies for de...

We discuss modelling possibility of short-term forecasting for market parameters in the portfolio selection problems. We suggest a continuous time financial market model and a discrete time market model featuring this possibility. For these models, optimal portfolio selection problem has an optimal quasi-myopic solution. Computationally, the problem is reduced to a stochastic optimal control pr...

‘Separable’ uncertainty sets have been widely used in robust portfolio selection models (e.g. see [E. Erdoğan, D. Goldfarb, and G. Iyengar, Robust portfolio management, manuscript, Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research, Columbia University, New York, 2004; D. Goldfarb and G. Iyengar, Robust portfolio selection problems, Math. Oper. Res. 28 (2003), pp. 1–38; R.H. Tütüncü a...
