Dhruv Ranganathan

Dhruv Ranganathan is a Professor of Algebraic Geometry at the University of Cambridge's Faculty of Mathematics and a Fellow at St John's College. His research focuses on logarithmic and tropical geometry, with applications to moduli and enumerative geometry. He holds a 2023 ERC Starting Grant from UKRI, coordinates the Cambridge Summer Research in Mathematics Programme, and teaches advanced mathematics courses such as IB Groups, Rings, and Modules.

• Affiliations: University of Cambridge (Faculty of Mathematics), St John's College.
• Research Interests: Tropical geometry, moduli spaces, enumerative geometry, logarithmic structures, and their interactions with combinatorics and algebraic varieties.

He has mentored over 30 undergraduate researchers since 2013, focusing on projects in toric geometry, tropical moduli spaces, hyperplane arrangements, and Brill-Noether theory. His team includes postdoctoral researchers such as Alessio, Patrick, and Veronica. He co-edits Forum of Mathematics Pi/Sigma and the Mathematical Proceedings of the Cambridge Philosophical Society.
