Abstract

In this work the portfolio transactions with commission are investigated. It is shown that for portfolios allowing short positions, the problem of finding an optimal portfolio with a commission is non-smooth. It is also shown that the return of such portfolios is a non-smooth rational and bounded function on the weights themselves and their absolute value. Moreover, the optimal portfolio with commission may differ from the optimal portfolio without commission.
