The efficient set mathematics when mean-variance problems are subject to general linear constraints
MJ Best, RR Grauer - Journal of Economics and Business, 1990 - Elsevier
In this paper we develop the efficient set mathematics for the case where mean-variance
portfolio problems are subject to general linear constraints. We derive closed-form expressions …

Cross-sectional tests of the CAPM and Fama–French three-factor model
RR Grauer, JA Janmaat - Journal of banking & Finance, 2010 - Elsevier
Grouping does not produce a wide range of betas. Consequently, cross-sectional tests of the
CAPM are bound to lack power. This paper provides a simple way to alleviate the problem …
