    The Bike-sharing allocation and rebalancing problem is the problem of determining the initial daily allocation of bikes to stations in a bike-sharing system composed of one depot and multiple capacitated stations, in which bikes can be rebalanced at a point in time during the day. Due to the uncertain demand in each station, we propose … Read more

    The inclusion of transaction costs is an essential element of any realistic portfolio optimization. In this paper, we consider an extension of the standard portfolio problem in which transaction costs are incurred to rebalance an investment portfolio. The Markowitz framework of mean-variance efficiency is used with costs modelled as a percentage of the value transacted. … Read more
