Ladislav Svante Rieger and his Work in Mathematical Logic and Set Theory
Eva Kozáková · 2006
The present paper is dedicated to Ladislav Svante Rieger (1916-1963), a prominent Czech mathematician who worked in three principal domains: algebra, mathematical logic, and axiomatic set theory. It is a free continuation of the article Kozakova (2005a) in which the personality of L.S. Rieger is introduced and his work in the field of algebra is evaluated. In the following text, we give a brief account on Rieger's professional life and overview of his research activities and describe his achievements in mathematical logic and axiomatic set theory in more detail. At the end of the paper, we provide the list of Rieger's most significant publications.
