Elizabeth Terezinha Gasparim is a Brazilian mathematician currently working at Universidad Católica del Norte, Chile. Elizabeth was born on 20 May 1963 in Curitiba, state of Paraná, Brazil, and obtained her PhD in Mathematics from the University of New Mexico, USA, in 1995. Her work in complex geometry and mathematical physics includes solutions of various aspects of famous conjectures such as The Atiyah-Jones conjecture for rational surfaces[1], the Nekrasov conjecture for toric surfaces (with Melissa Liu)[2], and the Katzarkov-Kontsevich-Pantev conjecture for minimal adjoint orbits (with E. Ballico, F. Rubilar, L. San Martin)[3].
