About Zvonimir Janko
- Zvonimir Janko (born 26 November 1932) is a Croatian mathematician who is the eponym of the Janko groups, sporadic simple groups in group theory.
- The first few sporadic simple groups were discovered by Émile Léonard Mathieu, which were then called the Mathieu groups.
- It was after 90 years of the discovery of the last Mathieu group that Zvonimir Janko constructed a new sporadic simple group in 1964.
- In his honour, this group is now called J1.
- This discovery launched the modern theory of sporadic groups and it was an important milestone in the classification of finite simple groups.
