Biography:Mircea Mustaţă
Mircea Immanuel Mustaţă (born 1971 in Romania) is a Romanian mathematician, specializing in algebraic geometry. Mustaţă received from the University of Bucharest a bachelor's degree in 1995 and a master's degree in 1996[1] and from the University of California, Berkeley a Ph.D. in 2001 with thesis advisor David Eisenbud and thesis Singularities and Jet Schemes.[2] As a postdoc he was at the University of Nice Sophia Antipolis (Fall 2001), at the Isaac Newton Institute (Spring 2002), and at Harvard University (2002–2004); he was from 2001 to 2004 a Clay Research Fellow. At the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor he became in 2004 an associate professor and in 2008 a full professor.[1]
In fall 2006, he was at the Institute for Advanced Study.[3] From 2006 to 2011 he held a five-year Packard Fellowship.[1]
Mustaţă was an invited speaker at the European Mathematical Congress in 2004 Stockholm and at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 2006 (with Lawrence Ein) in Madrid[4] and again in 2014 in Seoul.[5]
His research deals with a wide range of topics in algebraic geometry, including:
various invariants of singularities of algebraic varieties, such as minimal log discrepancies, log canonical thresholds, multiplier ideals, Bernstein–Sato polynomials and F-thresholds ... resolutions of singularities, jet schemes, D-modules or positive characteristic methods ... birational geometry, asymptotic base loci and invariants of divisors, and toric varieties.[6]
Mustaţă's doctoral students include June Huh.[2]
