Submission declined on 31 August 2025 by Grumpylawnchair (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Rajula Srivastava is an Indian mathematician whose work focuses on harmonic analysis and analytic number theory. She is currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. In 2025, she won the Maryam Mirzakhani New Frontiers Prize for making a significant progress at the intersection of harmonic analysis and analytic number theory.[1]
Early Life and Education
editSrivastava completed her Integrated Master of Science at the National Institute of Science Education and Research in 2017.[2] She earned her PhD from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in August 2022. Her thesis focused on Maximal functions on Heisenberg Groups, Cotlar type Theorems and Wavelets on Sobolev spaces under the supervision of Andreas Seeger.
Career and Research
editAfter completion of her PhD, she joined Mathematical Institute of the University of Bonn and the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics as a Hirzebruch Research Instructor, mentored by Christoph Thiele. [3] She was also employed at the University of Edinburgh under the Argelander Mobility Grant from 2024-2025, mentored by Jonathan Hickman.
Srivastava's research focuses on the intersection of harmonic analysis and number theory.[4] Her research also has the geometrical flavor such as finding the number of rational points found near a given smooth surface of a manifold, which has applications in Diophantine approximation in higher dimensions.[3]
Awards and recognition
editIn 2025, Srivastava received the Maryam Mirzakhani New Frontiers Prize by the Breakthrough Prize Foundation which comes with a $50,000 prize. She was honored for her "contributions in harmonic analysis and analytic number theory".[1] She plans to donate a portion of the prize money to organizations in India that support children's education[2] She also received the 2023 AWM Dissertation Prize for her PhD dissertation.[5]
