Different ways of portfolio optimization
There are different ways to optimize portfolios:
$$ \max R^Tw\tag{1}$$
or
$$ \min w^T \Sigma w\tag{2}$$
and finally using a risk tolerance $\lambda$:
$$ \min{(w^T\Sigma w-\lambda R^T w)}\tag{3}$ …

I have some question about MPT. Suppose we want to build a portfolio given $N$ assets: $A_1,\dots,A_N$. At time $t$ we build the portfolio using MPT, which yields some weight vector $w_t=(\lambda_1,\d …
