Portfolio Value Management
Portfolio value management deals with the problem of how to determine a portfolio such that the associated portfolio value moves in some desired direction. Two models of portfolio management are presented. The first (second) model considers the case where the portfolio value moves exactly (at least) according to given growth rates. A solution of both models is found by using a fixed-point argument.
A revised simplex method for linear multiple objective programs
For linear multiple-objective problems, a necessary and sufficient condition for a point to be efficient is employed in the development of a revised simplex algorithm for the enumeration of the set of efficient extreme points. Five options within this algorithm were tested on a variety of problems. Results of these tests provide indications for effective use of the algorithm.
