Janko Group

In mathematics, a Janko group is one of the four sporadic simple groups named for Zvonimir Janko. Janko constructed the first Janko group J1 in 1965. At the same time, Janko also predicted the existence of J2 and J3. In 1976, he suggested the existence of J4. J2, J3, and J4 were all later shown to exist.

Famous quotes containing the word group:

    Now, honestly: if a large group of ... demonstrators blocked the entrances to St. Patrick’s Cathedral every Sunday for years, making it impossible for worshipers to get inside the church without someone escorting them through screaming crowds, wouldn’t some judge rule that those protesters could keep protesting, but behind police lines and out of the doorways?
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1953)
