We propose an iterative gradient-based algorithm to efficiently solve the portfolio selection problem with multiple spectral risk constraints. Since the conditional value at risk (CVaR) is a special case of the spectral risk measure, our…

We study the $K$-item knapsack problem (i.e., $1.5$-dimensional KP), which is a generalization of the famous 0-1 knapsack problem (i.e., $1$-dimensional KP) in which an upper bound $K$ is imposed on the number of items selected. This…
