In mathematics, a Janko group is one of the four sporadic simple groups named for Zvonimir Janko. Janko constructed the first Janko group J1 in 1965. At the same time, Janko also predicted the existence of J2 and J3. In 1976, he suggested the existence of J4. J2, J3, and J4 were all later shown to exist.
