### Compute Jacobian Matrix for Risk Deviations

Source: https://github.com/dppalomar/riskparityportfolio/blob/master/R_buildignore/EfficientComputations.html

Computes the Jacobian matrix (A) of the risk deviation functions. This is used to linearize the risk constraints during the optimization process.

```R
Ut <- diag(Sigma_w) + Sigma*w
A <- (Ut - (r/sum_r + b) %o% Sigma_w) / sqrt(sum_r)
```

### Calculate Risk Deviations for SCA

Source: https://github.com/dppalomar/riskparityportfolio/blob/master/R_buildignore/EfficientComputations.html

Computes the risk deviations (g) for the Sequential Convex Approximation (SCA) method. It measures the difference between component risk contributions and target risk allocations.

```R
sum_r <- sum(r)
sqrt_sum_r <- sqrt(sum_r)
g <- r/sqrt_sum_r - b*sqrt_sum_r
```

### Compute Jacobian for SCA Risk Parity

Source: https://github.com/dppalomar/riskparityportfolio/blob/master/R_buildignore/EfficientComputations.html

Calculates the Jacobian matrix for Successive Convex Approximation (SCA) by leveraging the matrix U derived from the covariance and weight vectors.

```R
Ut <- diag(Sigma_w) + Sigma*w
A <- Ut - 2 * b %o% Sigma_w
```

### Calculate Risk Gradient for Risk Parity

Source: https://github.com/dppalomar/riskparityportfolio/blob/master/R_buildignore/EfficientComputations.html

Calculates the gradient of the risk function with respect to weights. It utilizes the covariance matrix and precomputed values to determine the direction of steepest descent for the risk parity objective.

```R
sum_r <- sum(r)
r_sumr_b <- r/sum_r - b
v <- 2*r_sumr_b - sum(r_sumr_b^2)
risk_grad <- as.vector(Sigma %*% (w*v) + Sigma_w*v)
```
