Education and career

Bigatti earned a laurea in mathematics in 1989 from the University of Genoa, and completed her Ph.D. in 1995 at the University of Turin. [2] Her dissertation, Aspetti Combinatorici e Computazionali dell’Algebra Commutativa, was supervised by Lorenzo Robbiano. [3] After postdoctoral study with Robbiano in Genoa, she took her present position as ricercatore in 1997. [2]

Books

Bigatti is an author or co-author of three Italian textbooks, Elementi di matematica - Esercizi con soluzioni per scienze e farmacia (with Grazia Tamone, 2013), Matematica di base (with Lorenzo Robbiano, 2014), and Matematica di base - Esercizi svolti, testi d'esame, richiami di teoria (with Grazia Tamone, 2016). She is also a co-editor of several books in mathematical research including Monomial ideals, computations and applications (Lecture Notes in Mathematics, Springer, 2013) and Computations and Combinatorics in Commutative Algebra (Lecture Notes in Mathematics, Springer, 2017).

Singular is a computer algebra system for polynomial computations with special emphasis on the needs of commutative and non-commutative algebra, algebraic geometry, and singularity theory. Singular has been released under the terms of GNU General Public License. Problems in non-commutative algebra can be tackled with the Singular offspring Plural. Singular is developed under the direction of Wolfram Decker, Gert-Martin Greuel, Gerhard Pfister, and Hans Schönemann, who head Singular's core development team within the Department of Mathematics of the Technische Universität Kaiserslautern. In the DFG Priority Program 1489, interfaces to GAP, Polymake and Gfan are being developed in order to cover recently established areas of mathematics involving convex and algebraic geometry, such as toric and tropical geometry.
