You could define a fieldType in schema.xml which also indexes parts of 
words. This would include something like:
<filter class="solr.NGramFilterFactory" minGramSize="3" maxGramSize="15"/>
(this indexes parts of words of 3-15 characters)

If you search on the web you can find lots of documentation and examples 
for this NGramFilterFactory.

You can create an extra field in the solr index which contains 
information from a number of TYPO3 fields. If you use that field in your 
advanced search strings like "gensb", "egen", "gen", etc. will all match 
"Regensberg".
