We dedicate our work to research and education on managerial decision and planning problems as well as on the foundations of auctions, social choice, and game theory. We conduct theoretical and experimental research and collaborate with industry partners in these fields.
Current research topics include market design, algorithmic game theory, computational social choice, and discrete optimization in various applications.
