I am a research assistant of Prof. Robert Weismantel at IFOR, ETH Zurich. My research activity includes various topics in (Mixed-)Integer Optimization, Combinatorial Optimization, Discrete Optimization, Convex Optimization, and Discrete Geometry. My doctoral thesis deals with maximal lattice-free polyhedra in mixed-integer cutting plane theory.

Research Interests

My major field of research is mixed-integer linear optimization.
This project is being performed in collaboration with Gennadiy Averkov, Alberto Del Pia, François Margot, and Robert Weismantel.

In addition, I deal with problems in convex optimization.
This project is being performed in collaboration with Michel Baes, Timm Oertel, and Robert Weismantel.

Besides, I work on robust risk management and portfolio optimization.
This project is being performed in collaboration with Apostolos Fertis and Robert Weismantel.

Moreover, I am always open to any kind of mathematical problem which is worth being investigated. Especially, when it is useful for practical applications.

Other Interests

My passion is to play chess. See here (in German) for some information on this.
