I am interested in articles/strategies related to portfolio and inventory management for market makers and to management of order cancellation, updates of order, etc.

Most of the strategies from articles are related to a market maker who quotes only one line (one security). What about those who quotes several lines?

I can't provide any papers, but market makers tend to shift pricing by the current inventory they have in that asset. Furthermore they will shift pricing of asset A by the inventory they have in all assets similar to asset A.

The methodology for how much to shift by, whether to shift mid/bid/ask and what constitutes as 'similar' is what the market making firms compete on.
