Simona Bonvicini

Simona Bonvicini is an Associate Professor at the Department of Physical, Computer and Mathematical Sciences, University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Italy. Her research focuses on geometry, combinatorics, graph theory, and algebraic structures, with a particular emphasis on cycle decompositions, edge-colorings, and symmetric graph designs. She teaches Geometry for Mathematics students and Mathematics and Computer Science for Geological Sciences students, emphasizing affine/Euclidean geometry, linear algebra, and algorithmic problem-solving.

Her work spans topics like Hamilton-Waterloo problems, Kirman Triple Systems, and 1-factorizations, often involving collaborations with researchers such as Marco Buratti and Gloria Rinaldi. She has explored automorphism groups, critical graphs, and applications to DNA self-assembly, though no specific scientific awards are mentioned in the provided data. Her recent publications address even cycle decompositions, palette indices, and structural graph properties.

Teaching methods include in-person lectures, digital platforms like Moodle, and problem-solving exercises. She is available for student reception by appointment.
