Kraków School of Mathematics

Kraków School of Mathematics ( _pl. krakowska szkoła matematyczna) was a sub-group of Polish School of Mathematics represented by mathematicians from the Kraków universities—Jagiellonian University and the AGH University of Science and Technology, active during the interwar period (1918–1939). Their area of study was primarily classical analysis, differential equations and analytic functions.

The Kraków School of Differential Equations was founded by Tadeusz Ważewski, a student of Stanisław Zaremba, and was internationally appreciated after WWII. The Kraków School of Analytic Functions was founded by Franciszek Leja. Other notable members includes Kazimierz Żorawski, Władysław Ślebodziński, Stanisław Gołąb, Ewa Grabska.
