Ingo Althöfer, born in 1961; study of Mathematics at Bielefeld University; PhD in Mathematics in 1986, in the group of Rudolf Ahlswede; Professor of Mathematics at Jena University from 1994 to 2023. Main fields of interest: discrete optimization, discrete mathematics in general, combinatorics, experimental Mathemtics. I always tried to teach my students how to tackle "their" math problem in the job, if the boss required some good solution within 72 hours. - I was engaged in computer chess.

@iammteah @tao In Bielefeld in the 1980's there was a special prof in physics. In the written exam the students were allowed to have one page with them - covered with definitions, formula, references in any font size. Even microfish were allowed. But reading only with eyes, not with technical help ;-) Better students had only little content on their pages.
