Work at the chair

Education

In WS 2023/24 I am in charge of the tutorials in Business Analytics & Machine Learning. If you have general questions to contents of the course or course organization, please consider using the forum on our moodle couse page (only available for enrolled students).

Research

I am focusing on collusion of algorithms in Bertrand settings. For an introduction, you might want to consider the papers by Calvano et al. (2020) and Hansen et al. (2021).

Short Bio

I am a Ph.D. student at Prof. Bichler's research group at the chair of Decision Sciences & Systems since July 2023.
