Hi, after running my code
R=readmatrix(filename1);
R=R.';
w=readmatrix(filename2);
gamma = 2;
Aeq = ones(1,68);
beq = 1;
lb = zeros(68,1);
ub = ones(68,1);
x0=0.0147*ones(1,68);
u = @(x) 1/(1-gamma)*x.^(1-gamma);
obj = @(x)-sum(u(x*w*R));
x = fmincon(obj,x0,[],[],Aeq,beq,lb,ub);
I recived the following error
Error using barrier
Objective function is undefined at initial point. Fmincon cannot continue.
Error in fmincon (line 824)
[X,FVAL,EXITFLAG,OUTPUT,LAMBDA,GRAD,HESSIAN] =
barrier(funfcn,X,A,B,Aeq,Beq,l,u,confcn,options.HessFcn, ...
I run the same code before but with a lees number of data and it works perfectly. Can you please help me what is wrong with my code ?
Thanks in advance
:::: UPDATE
after my discussion with Torsten : here
I reads my data carefully and found the problem with my data

Thanks Walter. I apprecaite the time everyone spend it here to help . I did not want to mislead the reader since my data cause the problem. I tried to accept Torsten answer but I could not

Your gamma is 2. 1-gamma is -1. x.^(1-gamma) is then 1./x
But you permit x to start at 0 (your lower bound is 0). That would get you infinity or nan, either of which is going to cause your objective to fail.
Your lb needs to be greater than 0.
