Hi R-list, I am new to optimization in R and would appreciate help on the following question. I would like to minimize the following function using two constraints: ###### fn <- function(par,H,F){ fval <- 0.5 * t(par) %*% H %*% par + F%*% par fval } # matrix H is (n by k) # matrix F is (n by 1) # par is a (n by 1) set of weights # I need two constraints: # 1.
