Mads Anker Nielsen's Homepage

Hi!

My name is Mads Anker Nielsen. I am a PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Cologne. My advisor is Kevin Schewior.

I received my master's degree in Computer Science from the University of Southern Denmark in 2025.

I am interested in various areas of theoretical computer science and discrete mathematics. In particular, I enjoy problems on (di)graphs and optimization problems involving uncertainty.

News

The paper "Non-Adaptive Evaluation of k-of-n Functions: Tight Gap and a Unit-Cost PTAS" has been accepted for publication at APPROX '25.
I presented a poster based on [1] at HALG '25.
