This paper is concerned with porfolio optimization problems with integer constraints. Such problems include, among others mean-risk problems with nonconvex transaction cost, minimal transaction unit constraints and cardinality constraints on the number of assets in a portfolio. These problems,...

We will show that a mean-variance-skewness portfolio optimization model, a direct extension of the classical mean-variance model can be solved exactly and fast by using the state-of-the-art integer programming approach. This implies that we can now calculate a portfolio with maximal expected...

The purpose of this paper is to show that an algorithm recently proposed by authors can in fact solve a maximal predictability portfolio (MPP) optimization problem, which is a hard nonconvex fractional programming optimization. Also, we will compare MPP with standard mean-variance portfolio...
