Dori Bejleri

Dori Bejleri is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Maryland, College Park. Prior to this, he was a Benjamin Peirce and NSF postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University (2019–2023) and an NSF postdoctoral fellow at MIT (2018–2019). He earned his PhD in 2018 from Brown University under Dan Abramovich's supervision.

His research focuses on algebraic geometry, particularly moduli spaces and birational geometry, with connections to number theory, enumerative geometry, combinatorics, and geometric representation theory. His work is supported by NSF grant DMS-2401483. He has organized several academic events, including the JHU-UMD Algebra and Number Theory Day (2024) and the Perspectives on Moduli in Algebraic Geometry conference (2025).

Bejleri has taught graduate courses such as Rationality Questions in Algebraic Geometry (Spring 2022), Birational Geometry of Algebraic Varieties (Fall 2020), and Moduli Spaces in Algebraic Geometry (Fall 2019). His research spans topics like wall-crossing phenomena in moduli spaces, compactifications of elliptic surfaces, and motivic Hilbert zeta functions. He has also contributed to the study of stable log pairs and geometric representation theory.

His teaching and research reflect a commitment to advancing foundational questions in algebraic geometry while engaging with interdisciplinary connections. His academic contributions include organizing seminars and mentoring students through advanced topics in geometry and topology.
