Nakano graduated from the University of California, Berkeley in 1986,[1] and earned a doctorate in mathematics from Yale University in 1990 under the supervision of George B. Seligman with thesis Projective Modules over Lie Algebras of Cartan Type.[1][3] After temporary positions at Auburn University and Northwestern University, he became an assistant professor at Utah State University in 1994 and moved to the University of Georgia in 2001.[1]
In 2010, Nakano was named Distinguished Research Professor.[1] In 2012, he became one of the inaugural fellows of the American Mathematical Society.[4]
