Andrej Dujella

Andrej Dujella (born 1966 in Pula) is a Croatian mathematician at University of Zagreb and a fellow of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts[1]

Born in Pula, a native of Zadar, Dujella got his M.Sc and PhD in mathematics from the University of Zagreb with a dissertation titled "Generalized Diophantine–Davenport problem". His main area of research is number theory, in particular Diophantine equations and elliptic curves.

Dujella has shown that there doesn't exist a Diophantine 6-tuple and that there exist at most a finite number of Diophantine 5-tuples. [2][3] He applied Diophantine tuples to construct elliptic curves with high rank. [4]
