Ilya Lifshitz
Ilya Mikhailovich Lifshitz (russian: Илья́ Миха́йлович Ли́фшиц; January 13, 1917 – October 23, 1982) was a leading Soviet theoretical physicist, brother of Evgeny Lifshitz. He is known for his works in solid state physics, electron theory of metals, disordered systems, and the theory of polymers. Work Ilya Lifshitz was born into a Ukrainian Jewish family in Kharkov, Kharkov Governorate, Russian Empire (now Kharkiv, Ukraine). Together with Arnold Kosevich, in 1954 Lifshitz established the connection between the oscillation of magnetic characteristics of metals and the form of an electronic surface of Fermi ( Lifshitz–Kosevich formula) from de Haas–van Alphen experiments. Lifshitz was one of the founders of the theory of disordered systems. He introduced some of the basic notions, such as self-averaging, and discovered what is now called Lifshitz tails and Lifshitz singularity. In perturbation theory, Lifshitz introduced the notion of spec ...

With Lev Landau, Lifshitz co-authored ''Course of Theoretical Physics'', an ambitious series of physics textbooks, in which the two aimed to provide a graduate-level introduction to the entire field of physics. These books are still considered invaluable and continue to be widely used. Lifshitz was the second of only 43 people ever to pass Landau's " ...

Nechama Lifshitz
Nechama Lifshitz (Russian: Нехама Юделевна Лифшиц, Hebrew: נחמה ליפשיץ) (born 1927 in Kaunas, Lithuania, died 2017 in Tel Aviv, Israel) was a Yiddish language and later Hebrew language soprano and art song performer who came to be a key representative of Soviet Jewish culture in the 1950s and 1960s. Her seemingly innocent concerts were the heart and soul of Lipshitz’s contribution to keeping Jewish culture and identity alive in the Communist bloc. Name There is no standard way of writing Lifschitz's name in the Latin alphabet, so it has been transliterated as Nehama Lifschitz, Nehamah Lipschitz, Nekhama Lifshitz, and so on, in news articles and on musical releases aimed at an English market. While she was still working in the Lithuanian SSR her name was sometimes written in its Lithuanian form Nechama Lifšicaitė, or Lifshitzaite. In YIVO transliteration from Yiddish her name would be spelled ''Nekhame Lifshits''. Biography Early life Necha ...
