1. 1. Robust Portfolio Optimization with Correlation Penalties

   University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

   Author : Pelle Nydahl; [2023]
   Keywords : Portfolio Optimization; Portfolio Allocation; Robust Optimization; Correlation; Risk Factor Model; EMA Filtering; Weighted Linear Regression; Portföljoptimering; Portföljallokering; Robust optimering; Korrelation; Riskfaktor-modell; EMA-filtrering; Viktad linjär regression;

   Abstract : Robust portfolio optimization models attempt to address the standard optimization method's high sensitivity to noise in the parameter estimates, by taking an investor's uncertainty about the estimates into account when finding an optimal portfolio. In this thesis, we study robust variations of an extension of the mean-variance problem, where an additional term penalizing the portfolio's correlation with an exogenous return sequence is included in the objective.

4. 3. Portfolio Optimization Problems with Cardinality Constraints

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Abolgasem Esmaeily; Felix Loge; [2023]
   Keywords : Portfolio Optimization; Modern Portfolio Theory MPT • Mixed Integer Programming MIP ; Efficient Frontier; Cardinality Constraints; Daily Returns; Expected Returns; Asset Allocation; Diversification;

   Abstract : This thesis analyzes the mean variance optimization problem with respect to cardinalityconstraints. The aim of this thesis is to figure out how much of an impact transactionchanges has on the profit and risk of a portfolio. We solve the problem by implementingmixed integer programming (MIP) and solving the problem by using the Gurobi solver. READ MORE

5. 4. The Impact of Quantum Computing on the Financial Sector : Exploring the Current Performance and Prospects of Quantum Computing for Financial Applications through Mean-Variance Optimization

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Produktionsekonomi

   Author : Ante Fahlkvist; Alfred Kheiltash; [2023]
   Keywords : Quantum computing; Finance; Financial applications; Mean-variance optimization; Zero-one quadratic programming; Quantum computing in finance;

   Abstract : Many important tasks in finance often rely on complex and time-consuming computations. The rapid development of quantum technology has raised the question of whether quantum computing can be used to solve these tasks more efficiently than classical computing. READ MORE
