Contributions
A slice of the Consani–Scholten quintic

Consani is the namesake of the Consani–Scholten quintic, a quintic threefold that she described with Jasper Scholten in 2001,[1][Q3] and of the Connes–Consani plane connection, a relationship between the field with one element and certain group actions on projective spaces investigated by Consani with Alain Connes.[2][AC] She is also known for her work with Matilde Marcolli on Arakelov theory and noncommutative geometry.[3][NG]

Education and career

Consani was born January 9, 1963 in Chiavari. She earned a laurea in mathematics in 1986 at the University of Genoa,[4] a doctorate (dottorato di ricerca) in 1992 from the University of Genoa and the University of Turin, and a second doctorate in 1996 from the University of Chicago. Her first doctoral dissertation was Teoria dell’ intersezione e K-teoria su varietà singolari, supervised by Claudio Pedrini, and her second dissertation was Double Complexes and Euler L-factors on Degenerations of Algebraic Varieties, supervised by Spencer Bloch.[4][5]

She was a C. L. E. Moore instructor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 1996 to 1999, overlapping with a research visit in 1998 to the University of Cambridge. After additional postdoctoral research at the Institute for Advanced Study, she became an assistant professor at the University of Toronto in 2000, and moved to Johns Hopkins in 2005.[4]

gollark: > If you had to pay 5 cents (or equivalent crypto, whichever is preferred) for every email you sent, would you?I would not. There's the obvious issue of mailing lists which you *want* to receive, but more significantly this would make me... not use email at all... since I don't have any work-y reasons to use it and can reach my friends by various other channels.
gollark: So apparently the issue is that I'm just misunderstanding Android, which has become increasingly convoluted for some reason. There are *two* `fastboot` things, each of which works slightly differently because of course.
gollark: Probably? I'm not entirely sure how Android's filesystem works because it's vaguely horrible even on correctly thingied devices.
gollark: Probably there actually is a system partition or something *there*, it's just not labelled/named properly.
gollark: If they wanted it to be hard, they could just not allow people to conveniently unlock the bootloader. Yet they do.
