Alumni
Dr. Lukas Mich
Lukas Mich was a member of the DFG Research Training Group ALOP. His research was on neural network approximations for stochastic optimal control problems, and he successfully defended his PhD thesis in 2023.
Dr. Daniel Hoffmann
Daniel was a member of the DFG Research Training Group ALOP and investigated branching processes for non-local PDEs and discrete-state mean-field games. He successfully defended his PhD thesis in 2020.
Christoph was a post-doctoral researcher working in stochastic control with frictions, in particular portfolio optimization with transaction costs. In 2019, he moved on to an Assistant Professor position at TU Berlin.
