Ph. D. student Carl Eggen

Since January 2021 I am a Ph.D. student in the group of Prof. Dr. Stefan Volkwein. I work on simulation and optimization of energy supply networks using Polynomial Optimization from Real Algebraic Geometry. Thus, my thesis is co-mentored by Prof. Dr. Markus Schweighofer.

Since October 2021 my research project is supported by a doctoral scholarship of the German Federal Environmental Foundation.

Research Topics:

  • Polynomial Optimization
  • Semidefinite Programming
  • Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Optimization
  • Optimization of Energy Supply Networks

Programming languages and software used:

  • Python
  • Julia
  • Latex

Teaching:

  • Summer Term 2021: Supervision of the lecture "Optimization I" of Prof. Volkwein.
