Ekaterina Fokina, born in Novosibirsk - Akademgorodok (Russia), studied Mathematics at the State University of Novosibirsk. As a doctoral student, she spent one year at the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, USA. After graduating in 2008, she moved to Vienna and began working at the Kurt Gödel Research Center for Mathematical Logic of the University of Vienna. In 2013, she obtained her venia docendi, thus became qualified to teach Mathematics, with her habilitaiton on "Complexity of equivalence relations, opens an external URL in a new window". She also received support for her research under the Elise-Richter programme, opens an external URL in a new window. She has been at TU Wien since 2015. In 2016 she submitted here her thesis (recognition-related) on the topic of Algorithmic properties of equivalence relations.

She is based in the Research Unit for Computational Logic, opens an external URL in a new window (E104-02). Her main research focus is the analysis of algorthmic characteristics of mathematical structures.
