Nonlinear Algebra People - 2018

Hanieh Keneshlou

August 24, 2018

Hanieh Keneshlou is currently a fourth-year PhD student in Algebraic Geometry at the University of Saarland, under Frank-Olaf Schreyer’s supervision. Before that, she completed her graduate studies at the University of Tehran.

Her main research interest concerns the geometry of moduli spaces, inparticular, the birational geometry of moduli spaces of curves and Hilebrt schemes.

In her PhD, she has been dealing with unirationality of Hurwitz spaces and construction of curves possessing several pencils. Furthermore, she likes working on problems related to the syzygies of varieties and free resolutions.

Starting from November 2018, Hanieh will join the research group of Bernd Sturmfels and Mateusz Michalek at MPI MiS as a postdoc.
