Igor Dolgachev, born on 7 April 1944, is a Russian-American mathematician who specializes in algebraic geometry, the study of the shapes defined by polynomial equations. He completed his doctorate at Moscow State University in 1970, with a thesis on the purity of the degeneration locus of families of curves written under the supervision of Igor Shafarevich. He has been a professor at the University of Michigan since 1978. In 1981 he introduced the surfaces that now bear his name, the Dolgachev surfaces.
