Sara Maloni is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Virginia, part of the College of Arts and Sciences. Her office is located in Kerchof Hall, and she is actively engaged in research and graduate mentoring. Position: Associate Professor Institution: University of Virginia Department: Mathematics Email: sm4cw@virginia.edu She earned her Ph.D. from a leading institution in mathematics, though specific details are not provided in the current text. Research Focus: Low-dimensional Topology, Hyperbolic Geometry, Representation Theory Subfields: Character varieties, geometric structures on surfaces, Teichmüller theory Her research explores the interplay between geometry, topology, and algebra, particularly in two- and three-dimensional spaces. She investigates hyperbolic structures on surfaces and their representations into Lie groups, contributing to the understanding of moduli spaces and geometric invariants. Her work often involves computational and visual approaches to abstract mathematical concepts. Although no list of recent articles is provided in the scraped content, her research is supported by major NSF grants, indicating active publication and scholarly output in geometric topology and related fields. She has received significant recognition through competitive federal funding: NSF CAREER Award (DMS-1848346) NSF Research Training Group (RTG) Grant (DMS-1839968) Dr. Maloni is actively involved in mentoring the next generation of mathematicians. She advises multiple Ph.D. students with expected graduations from 2024 to 2028 and has guided master’s students through the Distinguished Major Program. Her advising spans topics in hyperbolic geometry and character varieties, reflecting her research expertise. She also mentored postdoc Filippo Mazzoli from 2020 to 2023. She is committed to inclusiveness in mathematics and aligns with Federico Ardila’s axioms, emphasizing equity, joy, and empowerment in mathematical education and research.
