The [[Babeș-Bolyai University]] in [[Cluj-Napoca]], that was established in 1959, bears his name, as does the professional society of Hungarian mathematicians, the [[János Bolyai Mathematical Institute]], at the [[University of Szeged]]. There is also a mathematical award given out every five years, named the [[Bolyai Prize]]. Bolyai is a minor character in the 1969 science-fiction/fantasy story [[Operation Chaos (novel)|"Operation Changeling"]], where his unique abilities allow the protagonists to navigate the non-Euclidean geometry of [[Hell]].{{Citation needed|date=September 2022}}
