The verdict
At its closing session on November 26, 2021, the jury decided to award the main prize to
for the thesis Beyond general relativity: modified theories and non-singular black holes representing an excellent contribution to solutions of fundamental problems of gravity as consequences of Einstein's general theory of relativity
The jury also decided to give honourable mentions to the theses of
- Mgr. Matej Hudec, PhD.
entitled Aspects of baryon and lepton number non-conservation in the Standard model of particle interactions and beyond, an original contribution to investigation of effects of the microworld going beyond the Standard model, and
- RNDr. Katarina Karlová, PhD.
entitled Rigorous analysis of magnetization processes in classical and quantum spin models, an original contribution to theoretical investigation and evaluation of magnetisation processes in models of classical and quantum spin systems.
