Diversified Maximum Sharpe Ratio Portfolio

v1.0.0

Compute the asset weights of the diversified maximum Sharpe ratio portfolio, as defined in the first reference, optionally subject to:

Minimum and maximum weights constraints
Maximum group weights constraints
Minimum and maximum portfolio exposure constraints

The diversification measure used in the optimization procedure is the of the assets weights.
