معرفی
prof. RNDr. Miroslav Haviar, CSc. is a Professor at the Department of Mathematics, Matej Bel University (MBU), Slovakia. He holds visiting professorships at the University of Johannesburg, South Africa (2020-2026), and collaborates internationally with institutions in Australia, Portugal, and South Africa. His academic titles include RNDr (Comenius University, 1988), PhD (CSc., Comenius University, 1993), Doc. (Habilitation, Comenius University, 2002), and Full Professor (Comenius University, 2017).
- RNDr, Comenius University, 1988
- PhD (CSc.), Comenius University, 1993
- Doc. (Habilitation), Comenius University, 2002
- Full Professor, Comenius University, 2017
His research focuses on General Algebra, Duality Theory, Lattice Theory, and Universal Algebra, with recent work bridging graph theory (e.g., graceful graphs, chessboard representations) and algebraic structures (e.g., MS-algebras, bilattices). He has also contributed to mathematics education, particularly in fostering critical thinking in higher education.
The most recent publications highlight his leadership in advancing graph gracefulness, lattice dualities, and bilattice applications. Articles like Characterizations of kites as graceful graphs (2024) and Dual digraphs of finite meet-distributive lattices (2024) underscore his interdisciplinary impact. His 2020 work on educational standards reflects a broader interest in pedagogy.
- Visiting Fellow and FCO Fellow, University of Oxford (1993-1994)
- Postdoctoral Research Fellow, La Trobe University (1998-2000)
- Honorary Associate Fellow, Institute for Advanced Study Melbourne (2004)
Miroslav Haviar has served as an editor for international journals Algebra Universalis (since 2008) and Acta Universitatis Mathaei Belii, series Mathematics (2010-2022). He has been a referee for Mathematical Reviews (since 1995) and a member of the VEGA Grants Committee for Mathematics and Physics (2016-2021). He organized the Mathematical Colloquium Aká si mi krásna (2008-2014) and co-organized international conferences like the Summer Schools on Algebraic Graph Theory (2014, 2015).
