Friedrich Eisenbrand's main research interests lie in the field of discrete optimization, in particular in algorithms and complexity, integer programming, geometry of numbers, and applied optimization. He is best known for his work on efficient algorithms for integer programming in fixed dimension and the theory of cutting planes, which are an important tool to solve large scale industrial optimization problems in practice. Before joining EPFL in March 2008, Friedrich Eisenbrand was a full professor of mathematics at the University of Paderborn. Friedrich received the Heinz Maier-Leibnitz award of the German Research Foundation (DFG) in 2004 and the Otto Hahn medal of the Max Planck Society in 2001.

Courses

Advanced linear algebra II - diagonalization

MATH-115(a)

The purpose of the course is to introduce the basic notions of linear algebra and to prove rigorously the main results of the subject.

Discrete optimization

MATH-261

This course is an introduction to linear and discrete optimization. Warning: This is a mathematics course! While much of the course will be algorithmic in nature, you will still need to be able to prove theorems.
