Prof. RNDr. Petr Hajek, DrSc. from Department of Mathematics was awarded Rector's Award for prestigious publication

Petr Hájek, Michal Johanis: Smooth Analysis in Banach spaces, Series in Nonlinear Analysis and Applications 19, De Gruyter, 2014.

The book is the first systematic treatment of smooth analysis in Banach spaces which is an important part of contemporary analysis. It brings new views of the role of polynomials in approximation nonlinear theory.
The results stem from original research of the authors and contribute significantly to the development of this area.
