Thank you Brian. I searched PortfolioAnalytics.pdf for 'tracking' but didn't find one. Are there any implementation examples?
See Ross Bennett's tutorial from R/Finance 2017: https://rossb34.github.io/PortfolioAnalyticsPresentation2017/#1 Tracking Error example starts on slide 29, though you should find the rest of the tutorial useful. - Brian

I wonder if a solver to this problem is implemented in some R-based library. PortfolioAnalytics can do this.
