Career
Head of the Mathematics Faculty on the Lwów University of Technology. In December 1944, Stefan Banach wrote the following tribute to Stożek:
Professor Włodzimierz Stożek was an outstanding mathematician, the author of numerous papers on the theory of integral equations, potential theory, as well as on many other branches of mathematics. His work is widely known in Poland and also abroad.
He had a very charming personality and was a distinguished scholar, beloved by his young students as someone with a very caring heart.
He was always ready to assist anyone who asked for his help. He took little notice of nationality differences.
Those of us who were close to him and knew him well now esteem even more highly his enlightened personality and great cultural contributions. He will be remembered as a great intellectual who loved all of humanity and served it faithfully.
