Diane Margaret Maclagan (born 1974)[1] is a professor of mathematics at the University of Warwick.[2] She is a researcher in combinatorial and computational commutative algebra and algebraic geometry, with an emphasis on toric varieties, Hilbert schemes, and tropical geometry.
Education and career
As a student at Burnside High School in Christchurch, New Zealand, Maclagan competed in the International Mathematical Olympiad in 1990 and 1991, earning a bronze medal in 1991.[3][4] As an undergraduate, she studied at the University of Canterbury, graduating in 1995.[5] She did her PhD at the University of California, Berkeley, graduating in 2000. Her dissertation, Structures on Sets of Monomial Ideals, was supervised by Bernd Sturmfels.[5][6]
After postdoctoral research at the Institute for Advanced Study, Maclagan was a Szegő Assistant Professor at Stanford University from 2001 to 2004, an assistant professor at Rutgers University from 2004 to 2007, then an associate professor there from 2007 to 2009. She moved to her present position at the University of Warwick in 2007.[5] She has graduated six Ph.D. students since 2010.[6]
Maclagan has held visiting appointments at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton,[7] Mathematical Sciences Research Institute at Berkeley,[8] and Max Planck Institute für Mathematik in Leipzig.[9] Her research has been funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC)[10] and the National Science Foundation (NSF).[11] She is a workshop leader for the 2019 Workshop on Algebra and Representation Theory, Held on Oregonian Grounds at the University of Oregon in Eugene.[12] She has twice been among the “morning speakers” at the British Mathematical Colloquium (2010, 2017).[13] She was a plenary speaker at the 2016 Canadian Mathematical Society (CMS) winter meeting.[14]
Maclagan was elected member-at-large of the Council of the London Mathematical Society.[15] She was a member of the editorial advisory board of the London Mathematical Society journals (2009-2014).[16]She has co-organized thematic programs at the Fields Institute in Toronto with support from the Clay Mathematics Institute (CMI)[17][18] in addition to workshops at the American Institute of Mathematics (AIM) in Palo Alto[19][20][21] and Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach (MFO).[22][23][24]
Books
With Bernd Sturmfels, Maclagan is the author of the book Introduction to Tropical Geometry (Graduate Studies in Mathematics 161, American Mathematical Society, 2015).[25]
