Josip Pečarić (born September 03, 1948) is a Croatian Academician, mathematician and the professor of mathematics at the University of Zagreb, Croatia. He has written and co-authored over 800[2] articles on mathematics in mathematical journals, books, and conference proceedings.[3]

He is one of the leading world experts in the theory of inequality, so in world reference journals (in USA and Germany) he is called “a great name in the theory of inequality”. He is the Editor-in-Chief and founder of the international journal Mathematical Inequalities and Applications, and the Editorial Board consists of about 60 of the most well-known world scientist dealing with the subject. He is a referee for about 60 international journals and several publishing houses. In addition to his scientific work, academician Pečarić is known for his journalistic activities.

Biography

Early life

Josip Pečarić was born in Kotor (Boka Kotorska) on September 03, 1948 (In his documents it is written September 02, 1948) where he finished elementary and high school. Then he started studying at the University of Belgrade's Faculty of Electrical Engineering and he completed his master’s degree in electrical engineering under the supervision of mathematics Professor Dobrilo Tošić. After that he decided to dedicate himself to pure mathematics.

Start of research work

In 1976, when Gradimir Milovanović finished his doctoral degree, Professor Dobrilo Tošić gave him the copy of Milovanović thesis and together with Gradimir Milovanović he wrote his first two articles in 1976. Professor Dragoslav Mitrinović then invite him to work on his doctoral thesis. He finished the work on his thesis by 1979 but he succeed to get degree only in 1982 because of series of attacks on his work.
