News

• Job opportunity: Our department is looking for a new colleague to join us as a tenure-track assistant professor.

• In January, I'll give a focus lecture at the 27th Aussois Combinatorial Optimization Workshop.

• My paper Decomposition of Probability Marginals for Security Games in Max-Flow/Min-Cut Systems was accepted for publication in Mathematical Programming.  A follow-up paper  recently appeared at IPCO 2024. 

• Two papers on generalized malleable scheduling, both joint work with Dimitris Fotakis and Orestis Papadigenopoulos, were recently accepted for publication:

  • Assigning and Scheduling Generalized Malleable Jobs under Subadditive or Submodular Processing Speeds  in Operations Research.

  • A constant-factor approximation for generalized malleable scheduling under M♮-concave processing speeds in Mathematical Programming.

Both articles are dedicated to the memory of our friend and coauthor Orestis, who sadly passed away last year.

Research Interests

My research is based at the intersection of discrete mathematics, theoretical computer science, and operations research. In particular, this includes:

• combinatorial optimization,

• design and analysis of algorithms,

• game theory and social choice,

• robustness and uncertainty,

• applications in production and logistics.

Short Bio

Since 2019, I work at KU Leuven, where I hold an appointment as Associate Professor of Operations Management in the Department of Decision Sciences and Information Management. I am also a member of the KU Leuven Institute for Artificial Intelligence (Leuven.AI) and the KU Leuven Institute for Mobility (LIM).

Before joining KU Leuven, I was a junior group leader/lecturer in the Operations Research group of Technische Universität München (2016-2018), a DAAD P.R.I.M.E. fellow at the University of Rome "Tor Vergata" (2015), and a postdoc at Universidad de Chile (2014). I completed my PhD in Mathematics in 2013 at TU Berlin under the supervison of Martin Skutella and Britta Peis.
