Jan Legerský

I am a maintainer of the Python package PyRigi for the research in rigidity and flexibility of bar-and-joint frameworks.

Previously, I was a PostDoc at Research Institute for Symbolic Computation at Johannes Kepler University in Linz, Austria. I did my PhD in Marie Sklodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network ARCADES at JKU in Linz. My supervisor was Josef Schicho.
