Grégory Miermont (born 16 July 1979) is a French mathematician working on probability, random trees and random maps.
After high school, Miermont trained for two years at Classe préparatoire aux grandes écoles at the end of which he was admitted at the École normale supérieure in Paris. He studied there from 1998 to 2002, spending the 2001–2002 year as a visiting student in Berkeley. He received his doctorate at Pierre and Marie Curie University in 2003, under the supervision of Jean Bertoin. Then, he became a CNRS researcher in 2004 at University of Paris-Sud and École normale supérieure, and was promoted to the rank of professor in 2009. Since 2012 he is a professor at the École normale supérieure de Lyon.
Miermont worked on the theory of probability, more precisely on the geometry and scaling limits of random planar maps, and on fragmentation related to random trees.
