Aleksandr Lyapunov
Aleksandr Mikhailovich Lyapunov (russian: Алекса́ндр Миха́йлович Ляпуно́в, ; – 3 November 1918) was a Russian mathematician, mechanician and physicist. His surname is variously romanized as Ljapunov, Liapunov, Liapounoff or Ljapunow. He was the son of the astronomer Mikhail Lyapunov and the brother of the pianist and composer Sergei Lyapunov. Lyapunov is known for his development of the stability theory of a dynamical system, as well as for his many contributions to mathematical physics and probability theory. Biography Early life Lyapunov was born in Yaroslavl, Russian Empire. His father Mikhail Vasilyevich Lyapunov (1820–1868) was an astronomer employed by the Demidov Lyceum. His brother, Sergei Lyapunov, was a gifted composer and pianist. In 1863, M. V. Lyapunov retired from his scientific career and relocated his family to his wife's estate at Bolobonov, in the Simbirsk province (now Ulyanovsk Oblast). After the death of his father in 18 ...

Vitali Milman
Vitali Davidovich Milman ( he, ויטלי מילמן; russian: Виталий Давидович Мильман) (born 23 August 1939) is a mathematician specializing in analysis. He is a professor at the Tel Aviv University. In the past he was a President of the Israel Mathematical Union and a member of the “ Aliyah” committee of Tel Aviv University. Work Milman received his Ph.D. at Kharkiv State University in 1965 under the direction of Boris Levin. In a 1971 paper, Milman gave a new proof of Dvoretzky's theorem, stating that every convex body in dimension ''N'' has a section of dimension ''d(N)'', with ''d(N)'' tending to infinity with ''N'', that is arbitrarily close to being isometric to an ellipsoid. Milman's proof gives the optimal bound ''d(N)'' ≥ const log ''N''. In this proof, Milman put forth the concentration of measure phenomenon which has since found numerous applications. Milman made important contributions to the study of Banach spa ...

Valentina Borok
Valentina Mikhailovna Borok (9 July 1931 – 4 February 2004) was a Soviet Ukrainian mathematician. She is mainly known for her work on partial differential equations. Life Borok was born on July 9, 1931 in Kharkiv in Ukraine (then USSR), into a Jewish family. Her father, Michail Borok, was a chemist, scientist and an expert in material science. Her mother, Bella Sigal, was a well-known economist. Because of her mothers' high position at the ministry of Economics, Valentina Borok had a privileged early childhood. However, because of the political situation, her mother voluntarily resigned in 1937 and took a lower position, presumably because she knew she couldn't possibly have been spared the repressions of the late 1930s. This possibly helped the Borok family survive World War II. Valentina Borok had a talent for math even in her high school years. So in 1949, with the advice of her high school teachers Borok started to study Mathematics at Kiev State University. There she me ...

Vladimir Drinfeld
Vladimir Gershonovich Drinfeld ( uk, Володи́мир Ге́ршонович Дрінфельд; russian: Влади́мир Ге́ршонович Дри́нфельд; born February 14, 1954), surname also romanized as Drinfel'd, is a renowned mathematician from the former USSR, who emigrated to the United States and is currently working at the University of Chicago. Drinfeld's work connected algebraic geometry over finite fields with number theory, especially the theory of automorphic forms, through the notions of elliptic module and the theory of the geometric Langlands correspondence. Drinfeld introduced the notion of a quantum group (independently discovered by Michio Jimbo at the same time) and made important contributions to mathematical physics, including the ADHM construction of instantons, algebraic formalism of the quantum inverse scattering method, and the Drinfeld–Sokolov reduction in the theory of solitons. He was awarded the Fields Medal in 1990. In 2016, ...
