Andrzej Rotkiewicz
Ph. D.: IM PAN 1963, habilitation: IM PAN 1975, title of professor: 2002
My fields are pseudoprime numbers, Lehmer numbers and diophantine equations.
In my book Pseudoprime Numbers and Their Generalizations I gave all what
was known about pseudoprimes up to 1972.
In the field of diophantine equations I use so called
Ko-Terjanian-Rotkiewicz method to the equations connected with the Lehmer
numbers and FLT (an application of the Jacobi symbol).
