Angela Aguglia

Angela Aguglia is an Associate Professor at the Department of Mechanics, Mathematics & Management of the Polytechnic University of Bari (Poliba). Her research focuses on Algebraic Geometry, Finite Geometry, and Coding Theory, with applications in cryptography and combinatorial designs.

Her work primarily explores quasi-Hermitian varieties, hypersurfaces in finite fields, and their connections to secret sharing schemes, minimal codes, and orthogonal arrays. Recent publications highlight intersecting families of graphs, orbit codes, and non-Desarguesian planes.

Aguglia’s research trends emphasize algebraic structures in finite projective spaces, including the study of blocking sets, semiovals, and maximal arcs. She has contributed extensively to the classification and equivalence of geometric objects, with implications for coding theory and design theory.
