Information from The Mathematics Genealogy
Vladimir Janković obtained a Ph.D. degree in mathematics at University of Belgrade in 1984.
The title of the thesis was:
Prilog varijacionom računu i optimalnom upravljanju.
The thesis supervisor was Slobodan Dajović.
We are trying to provide information about past IMO contestants, and possibly, links to their current web sites. Since many of them became mathematicians,
The Mathematics Genealogy Project is our primary source of information on Ph.D. dissertations in mathematics.
If there are several mathematicians with the name Vladimir Janković we may have picked a wrong entry from the genealogy web site. When a different spelling of the name is used at Mathematics Genealogy, chances are that we have missed the information completely. We are correcting the mistakes as soon as we become aware of them, and any help is welcome.
If the information is not available on the Mathematics Genealogy Project, we are unlikely to have it.
We would appreciate if you help us by using the form below to create an entry about Vladimir Janković that would supplement or replace the content of the current page.

Current position
Vladimir Jankovic is a full professor at the University of Belgrade. His fields of study are numerical maths and optimization.
He was awarded two silver medals at the IMOs 1969-70, and later on took part at several IMOs as the team leader of Yugoslavia. He was the president of the problem selection comitee at the IMO77. He is a long-time lecturer at preparation of the olympic teams of Yugoslavia (S&M) and a co-author of a number of books on olympiad and advanced maths in Serbian language. His book ``The IX and XIX IMO’’ can be regarded as the first step towards ``The IMO Compendium.’’
Thanks to him, who was storing old IMO shortlists and longlists for decades, these precious materials are not lost. These efforts ultimately made ``The IMO Compendium’’ possible.
