Bernd Kummer

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bernd Kummer (* 1947 in Leipzig ) is a German mathematician and university professor .

Life

Studies and PhD

From 1965 to 1970 Kummer studied mathematics at the Humboldt University in Berlin . From 1970 to 1972 he completed a research course and then worked from 1972 to 1977 as a research assistant. In 1975 he received his doctorate as Dr. rer. nat. at the Humboldt University of Berlin with NN Worobjoff and Klaus Lommatzsch. His dissertation was on discrete positional games and a generalization of von Neumann-Morgenstern's concept of solutions for classic cooperative games .

Employment

Kummer completed his habilitation in 1977 with a thesis on global stability studies for parametric optimization tasks with František Nožička . From 1977 he was a lecturer and from 1993 professor at the Humboldt University, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, optimization department .

Research stays

Research priorities

Kummer's main research areas are non-smooth analysis and optimization, stability and solution methods for optimization and game theory , fixed points of multivalued mappings .

From 2005 to 2009 he worked with Eberhard Bänsch, Carsten Carstensen, Dietmar Hömberg, Barbara Niethammer, Lutz Recke, Werner Römisch, Jürgen Sprekels on the project Analysis, Numerics and Optimization of Multi-Phase Problems . It was funded by the German Research Foundation and worked on jointly by the Humboldt University, the Weierstrass Institute for Applied Analysis and Stochastics (formerly the Academy of Sciences of the GDR ) and the Yachay Tech University, Ecuador .
