Research
My main research areas are algorithmic game theory, algorithmic mechanism design, and approximation algorithms. My research interests include, but are not limited to, the design and analysis of (approximation) algorithms, computational complexity, congestion games, flows over time, operations research, optimal stopping theory, and scheduling.
Please feel free to contact me to obtain publications, I would be very happy to send you a free pdf. Please see the talks page for slides.
