Javier Cembrano

I am an assistant professor at the Department of Industrial Engineering of Universidad de Chile. Previously, I held a postdoc position at the Algorithms and Complexity department of the Max Planck Institute for Informatics. I obtained my PhD at the DISCO group at TU Berlin, where I was fortunate to be advised by Max Klimm and Felix Fischer. Before that, I graduated as an industrial engineer and MS in Operations Management at Universidad de Chile, being advised by José Correa and Victor Verdugo for my thesis.

My research interests lie in the intersection of economics and computation, especially in the fields of algorithmic game theory and social choice. I enjoy thinking about topics such as mechanism design without money and political apportionment using tools from discrete mathematics and optimization.
