Diane Maclagan

I am an Associate Professor at the Mathematics Institute at the University of Warwick. Prior to coming to Warwick I spent three years in the Mathematics Department at Rutgers University. I have also spent time at Stanford and the Institute for Advanced Study. I was a graduate student at UC Berkeley, where my advisor was Bernd Sturmfels.

Research: My research is in combinatorial and computational commutative algebra and algebraic geometry, with emphasis on toric varieties, Hilbert schemes, and tropical geometry. A copy of my curriculum vitae is available here.

My research is supported by EPSRC.

Editorial work: London Mathematical Society

Seminars and conferences: Warwick Algebraic Geometry seminar/ Moduli of Abelian Varieties Seminar/ Warwick Tropical Day / Other Warwick seminars / Other conferences/seminars

Teaching: This term (Term 1 2011/12) I am teaching: MA 4A5 (Algebraic Geometry) and a TCC (Taught Course Centre) module on Tropical Geometry. The second of these is available to postgraduates at Warwick, Bath, Bristol, Imperial, and Oxford.
