Torsten Mütze is a Professor at the Institute of Mathematics at the University of Kassel. Previously, he held positions as an Assistant Professor at the University of Warwick (2019–2024) and was affiliated with Charles University Prague's Department of Theoretical Computer Science and Mathematical Logic. His academic journey includes a postdoc under Martin Skutella at TU Berlin, research stays at Georgia Tech and ETH Zurich, and a software engineering role at Supercomputing Systems Zurich. Education: PhD in 2011 from ETH Zurich under Angelika Steger's supervision Master's and Bachelor's degrees in related fields Research Interests: Focuses on discrete mathematics and theoretical computer science, including combinatorial algorithms, graph theory, computational geometry, order theory, Ramsey theory, and combinatorial games. His work bridges foundational theory and real-world applications, particularly in algorithm design and combinatorial generation. Advising & Grants: Supervised students: Francesco Verciani, Nastaran Behrooznia, Namrata, Arturo Merino, Frieder Smolny, Karl Däubel, Jerri Nummenpalo, and Ondřej Mička Funded projects: DFG Heisenberg grant 522790373, Chancellor's International Scholarships, and EU funding Labs & Collaborations: Organizes workshops like 'Combinatorics, Algorithms and Geometry' and contributes to research networks such as the 'Combinatorial Optimization and Graph Algorithms' group. His work involves collaborations with institutions globally, including ETH Zurich, Georgia Tech, and TU Berlin.
