0 references
The monograph is devoted to life and work of prominent Czech mathematician Vladimir Kořínek. His scientific interests were related to group theory and lattice theory where he obtained some widely known results. His textbook ``Foundations of Algebra'' published in 1953 had a profound impact on several generations of Czech and Slovak algebraicians. Professor Kořínek put great effort into many aspects of mathematical education in his country. The rich illustrated appendix contains copies of documents and photographs from Kořínek's estate.
