Jiří Matoušek (1963–2015)
Czech mathematician and computer scientist at charles-university, described by martin-klazar, his colleague in the applied-mathematics department, as "one of the greatest Czech mathematicians and computer scientists."
He enters this wiki through an absence. He was preparing the lectures for the 2014/15 analysis course when illness stopped him, and klazar-elementary-real-analysis is dedicated to his memory — a book that exists partly because the course he planned was never delivered.
Discovered while ingesting that book, which is the only source here that mentions him; his own work (discrete geometry, combinatorics, and several widely used textbooks) is unpaged.
