Gabriele Eichfelder (born 1977) is a German applied mathematician whose research focuses on mathematical optimization with vector-valued functions and set-valued functions. She is a professor at the Technische Universität Ilmenau, where she is head of the Group for Mathematical Methods in Operations Research.
After secondary school in Bamberg, Eichfelder received a diploma in mathematics, with a minor in economics, at the University of ErlangenâÂÂNuremberg in 2001. She continued at the University of ErlangenâÂÂNuremberg for a 2006 doctorate in applied mathematics, and a 2012 habilitation. Her doctoral advisors were Johannes Jahn and Jörg Fliege.
She was an assistant professor at the University of ErlangenâÂÂNuremberg from 2006 to 2012, and has been a full professor at the Technische Universität Ilmenau since 2012.
Eichfelder is the author of the books Adaptive Scalarization Methods in Multiobjective Optimization (Springer, 2008) and Variable Ordering Structures in Vector Optimization (Springer, 2014).
The Association of European Operational Research Societies (EURO) Working Group on Continuous Optimization (EUROPT) named Eichfelder as its 2024 EUROPT Fellow.
