About

I’m Burt Totaro, an algebraic geometer. I’m Lowndean Professor of Astronomy and Geometry at Cambridge University (DPMMS) and Professor of Mathematics at UCLA (Math Department).

People often send me job announcements of interest to geometers. I sometimes have things to say about geometry. This site started as a utilitarian attempt to gather and organize this information. I remove posts about jobs when the closing date for applications is past.
