Name and surname: Oto Strauch Date and place of birth: May 15, 1943, Pezinok (Slovak Republic) Education: In 1971 I graduated at the Faculty of Natural Sciences, Comenius University, Bratislava (I absolved mathematical analysis), where I spent the next fifteen years as graduate student and assistant professor. In 1980 I defended on Comenius University thesis "Metric Theory of Diophantine Approximations" under the guidance of Professor T. Šalát, obtaining CSc.-degree (Candidatus scientiarum). In 1997 I defended habilitation thesis and in 2002 doctor thesis (DrSc.-degree) entitled "Distribution of sequences". Since 1986 at present I work at the Mathematical Institute SAV, where I am engaged in the study of diophantine approximations and uniform distribution theory. I have published several papers about Duffin-Schaeffer conjecture and distribution of sequences, which I lectured in 1987 at Warsaw, 1993, 1996 at Vienna, in 1990, 1992, 1994, 1996 at Graz, in 2001 at Saint-Etienne, and in 2002 at Saint-Etienne and Marseille.
