Optimal portfolios with a restriction on the number of assets, also referred to as cardinality-constrained portfolios, have been receiving attention in the literature due to its popularity among market practitioners and retail investors. In most cases, however, the interest is in proposing...

Classical Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) that has been attempted for the solution of complex constrained portfolio optimization problem in finance, despite its noteworthy track record, suffers from the perils of getting trapped in local optima yielding inferior solutions and unrealistic time...

In this paper, we discuss the portfolio optimization problem with real-world constraints under the assumption that the returns of risky assets are fuzzy numbers. A new possibilistic mean-semiabsolute deviation model is proposed, in which transaction costs, cardinality and quantity constraints...
