Irena Peeva

Irena Vassileva Peeva is a professor of mathematics at Cornell University, specializing in commutative algebra.[1] She disproved the Eisenbud–Goto regularity conjecture jointly with Jason McCullough.[2]

Peeva in 1995

Education and career

Peeva did her graduate studies at Brandeis University, earning a Ph.D. in 1995 under the supervision of David Eisenbud with a thesis entitled Free Resolutions.[3] She was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, Berkeley and a C. L. E. Moore instructor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology before joining the Cornell Department of Mathematics faculty in 1998.[4]

Peeva is an editor of the Transactions of AMS.[5]

Books

Peeva is the author of:

  • Graded Syzygies (Springer, 2011).[6]
  • Minimal Free Resolutions over Complete Intersections (with David Eisenbud, Springer, 2016).[7]

Recognition

In 2014 Peeva was elected as a fellow of the American Mathematical Society "for contributions to commutative algebra and its applications."[8]

In 2019/2020 and in 2012/2013 Peeva was a Simons Foundation Fellow.[9] During 1999-2001 she was a Sloan Foundation Fellow[10] and was a Sloan Doctoral Dissertation Fellow in 1994/1995.
