Michela Varagnolo is a mathematician whose research topics have included representation theory, Hecke algebra, Schur–Weyl duality, Yangians, and quantum affine algebras. She earned a doctorate in 1993 at the University of Pisa, under the supervision of Corrado de Concini, [1] and is maître de conférences in the department of mathematics at CY Cergy Paris University, [2] affiliated there with the research laboratory on analysis, geometry, and modeling. [3]
Varagnolo was an invited speaker at the 2014 International Congress of Mathematicians. [4] In 2019, with Éric Vasserot, she won the Prix de l'État of the French Academy of Sciences for their work on the geometric representation theory of Hecke algebras and quantum groups. [2]
