Britta Peis

Britta Peis is a Professor of Management Science at RWTH Aachen University since September 2013. She studied Mathematics and Sports Sciences at the University of Cologne and German Sport University Cologne, respectively. Her academic journey includes positions at TU Dortmund (2006-2007), TU Berlin (2007-2010), and a visiting professorship at Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg (2010-2011).

Her research focuses on Combinatorial Optimization, Algorithmic Discrete Mathematics, Routing and Scheduling, Robust Optimization, and Algorithmic Game Theory. Her work spans theoretical and applied domains, including network flow analysis, auction algorithms, and strategic decision-making in complex systems.

Recent publications (2025-2024) highlight advancements in dynamic auction mechanisms, Stackelberg game formulations, and train routing algorithms. Earlier works (2022-2018) explore matroid theory, packet routing with priority lists, and sensitivity analysis in polymatroid optimization. Key trends include algorithmic design for competitive networks and robustness in time-dependent flows.

She is affiliated with the Graduiertenkolleg UnRAVeL (Aachen Institute for Discrete Mathematics and Logic) and contributes to the Chair of Management Science's research agenda in combinatorial optimization and algorithmic game theory.
