this paper will investigate the optimum portfolio for an investor, taking into account 5 criteria. the mean variance model of portfolio optimization that was introduced by markowitz includes two objective functions; these two criteria, risk and return do not encompass all of the information about investment; information like annual dividends, s&p star ranking and return in later years which...

due to project evaluation complexity and resource constraints, the project portfolio optimization is numerous decision making challenges. hence, many researches have been done to introduce model and methods for portfolio optimization. but most of them have not considered the interaction between projects. considering the interactions between projects increase complexity of portfolio optimization...

despite the growing use of evolutionary multi-objective optimization algorithms in different categories of science, these algorithms as a powerful tool in portfolio optimization and specially solving multi-objective portfolio optimization problem is still in its early stages. in this paper, moeas have been used for solving multi-objective portfolio optimization problem in tehran stock market. f...

We address the multi-period portfolio optimization problem with the constant rebalanc-ing strategy. This problem is formulated as a polynomial optimization problem (POP) by using a mean-variance criterion. In order to solve the POPs of high degree, we develop a cutting-plane algorithm based on semidefinite programming. Our algorithm can solve problems that can not be handled by any of known pol...

Computational finance has become one of the emerging application fields of metaheuristic algorithms. In particular, these optimization methods are quickly becoming the solving approach alternative when dealing with realistic versions of financial problems, such as the popular portfolio optimization problem (POP). This paper reviews the scientific literature on the use of metaheuristics for solv...

Combinatorial optimization has been a workhorse of financial and risk management, and it has spawned a large number of real-life applications. Prominent in this body of research is the mean-variance efficient frontier (MVEF) that emanates from the portfolio optimization problem (POP), pioneered by Harry Markowitz. A textbook version of POP minimizes risk for a given expected return on a portfol...

Many portfolio optimization problems deal with allocation of assets which carry a relatively high market price. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the integer value of assets when we deal with portfolio optimization. In addition, one of the main concerns with most portfolio optimization is associated with the type of constraints considered in different models. In many cases, the resulted p...

index tracking is the process of developing a portfolio that reproduces the performance of an index. the tracker portfolio has relatively good diversity and low turnover and low transaction costs. in this paper we applied a binary programming model for index tracking problem. in this model the number of assets for portfolio construction is defined by portfolio manager. the robust optimization f...
