Barbara Fantechi is an Italian mathematician and Professor at the International School for Advanced Studies. Her research area is algebraic geometry. She is a member of the Accademia dei Lincei.

Early life and education

Fantechi received her Laurea from the University of Pisa in 1988, with thesis Secanti di varietà proiettive e applicazioni. ^{[1] [2] [3]} Her doctoral advisor was Fabrizio Catanese. ^[3]

Research and career

Her research considers algebraic geometry. ^[4] She has developed the mathematical theories that underpin algebraic stacks. Stacks were first introduced to understand the moduli space of curves. ^{[5] [6]}

Honours and awards

In 2018, Fantechi received the Prof. Luigi Tartufari award from the Accademia dei Lincei. ^[7] She was awarded the MSRI Chancellor's Professorship for 2017-2018, and spent a year at the University of California, Berkeley. ^[1] In 2022, Fantechi was the first woman mathematician to become a member of the Accademia dei Lincei. ^{[8] [9]}
