Vera Vladimirovna Serganova () is a professor of mathematics at the University of California, Berkeley who researches superalgebras and their Algebra representation, representations.
Serganova graduated from Moscow State School 57 and Moscow State University. She defended her Ph.D. in 1988 at Saint Petersburg State University under the joint supervision of Dimitry Leites and Arkady Onishchik. She was an list of International Congresses of Mathematicians Plenary and Invited Speakers, invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 1998 and a plenary speaker at the ICM in 2014.
In 2017, she was elected a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
The Gelfand–Serganova theorem gives a geometric characterization of Coxeter matroids; it was published by Serganova and Israel Gelfand in 1987 as part of their research originating the concept of a Coxeter matroid.
