Jiří Rosický (born 1946) is a Czech mathematician. He works on the field of category theory.[1] He is cited as one of the first researchers to introduce tangent categories and tangent bundle functors.[2][3][4][5]

Life

Jiří Rosický was born in 1946. In 1963–1968, he studied mathematics at the Faculty of Science of the Masaryk University. In 1969, he started to work in the department of algebra and geometry at the Faculty of Science. In 1979, he became head of the department.[6]

Work

His work is in category theory, model theory, abstract homotopy theory, and general algebra.[3][7][8] Along with Jiří Adámek he has written a book on the theory of locally presentable and accessible categories.
