  • Antonio Fais (25 April 1841 – 20 April 1925) was an Italian mathematician and railway engineer.He was rector at the University of Cagliari from 1897 to 1898. As an engineer he worked for the Royal Sardinian Railways for the development of the rail line sector located next to the town of Oristano. In 1865 was appointed professor of infinitesimal calculus and algebra at the University of Cagliari. He moved at the University of Bologna in 1876, where he taught infinitesimal calculus and algebra, and graphical statics. His main scientific activity in the field of mathematics was focused on the study of the differential geometry of curves and surfaces and the differential equations, on which he published several articles. Due to his scientific activity, Fais was awarded with the Benedictine medal by the Accademia di Bologna, in 1897, with the Cross Order of Saints Maurice and Lazarus in 1897 and was appointed Knight of the Order of the Crown of Italy in 1905. During his life, Fais met and worked jointly with several contemporary prominent mathematicians, such as the Italians Felice Casorati, Antonio Pacinotti and Eugenio Beltrami, and the French Joseph Louis Bertrand.
