He was a professor of mathematics at the University of Edinburgh. Early lifeRanicki was the only child of the well-known literary critic Marcel Reich-Ranicki[1] and the artist Teofila Reich-Ranicki; he spoke Polish in his family. He lived in Warsaw, in Frankfurt am Main and Hamburg and attended school in England from the age of sixteen.[2][3] Ranicki graduated from the University of Cambridge in Mathematics in 1969. At Cambridge he was a student of topologists Andrew Casson and John Frank Adams[4]. He earned his doctoral degree in 1973 with a thesis on algebraic L-theory. Ranicki received numerous awards and honors for his scientific achievements during his studies. From 1972 to 1977 he was a Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge.[5] From 1977 to 1982, he was Assistant Professor at Princeton University. In 1982 he began at the University of Edinburgh as a lecturer; in 1987 he was promoted to Reader. In 1992, he became a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh.[6] Since 1995, Ranicki has been the Chair of Algebraic Surgery at the University of Edinburgh.[7] Several times he stayed as a visiting scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn, most recently in 2011.[8] Personal life and deathRanicki was married to American paleontologist Ida Thompson in 1979; they have a daughter.
