John Flinders Petrie (26 April 1907 – 1972) was an English mathematician. Petrie was the great grandson of the explorer and navigator, Matthew Flinders. He met the geometer Harold Scott MacDonald Coxeter as a student, beginning a lifelong friendship. They collaborated in discovering infinite warped polyhedra and (finite) warped polyhedra in the fourth dimension, analogous to the previous ones. In addition to being the first to realize the importance of the warped polygon that now bears his name, he was also skilled as a draftsperson.
