Uriel Feige

Uriel Feige is a Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel. His office is located in Zyskind 251, and he can be contacted via phone at (972)-8-9343364 or email. His research focuses on theoretical computer science with emphasis on combinatorial optimization, approximation algorithms, algorithmic game theory, and fairness in resource allocation.

Professor Feige's research interests include NP-hard optimization problems (approximation algorithms, beyond worst-case analysis), algorithmic game theory (allocation problems, fairness), and past work on cryptography and random walks. His publications demonstrate deep engagement with fundamental challenges in computational fairness and optimization.

Recent publications (2021-2025) show strong emphasis on fair allocation problems, particularly involving indivisible goods, subadditive/XOS valuations, and maximin fairness concepts. These works bridge computer science, game theory, and economics, developing novel mechanisms for resource distribution under complex constraints.
