Jan Rataj

Jan Rataj is a Professor at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University, specializing in Integral Geometry, Geometric Measure Theory, and Stochastic Geometry. He has been affiliated with Charles University since 1991 and has held visiting positions at universities in Jena, Karlsruhe, Ulm, and Aarhus.

• Research interests focus on geometric probability, convex geometry, and measure theory
• Teaches courses on Measure and Integration Theory, Geometry, and advanced topics in geometric measure theory

Scientific contributions include coauthoring 2 monographs and ~50 research papers. His work explores:

• Random measurable sets and perimeter analysis
• Stochastic modeling of microstructures
• Geometric functionals and invariants
• Applications to spatial statistics and probability theory

He supervises PhD students and leads the Seminar of Stochastic Geometry, which examines topics like:

• Max-stable random fields
• Convex body reconstruction
• Point process analysis
