Ivan Ivanovich Privalov (russian: Ива́н Ива́нович Привáлов; 11 February 1891 – 13 July 1941) was a Russian mathematician best known for his work on
analytic function
In mathematics, an analytic function is a function that is locally given by a convergent power series. There exist both real analytic functions and complex analytic functions. Functions of each type are infinitely differentiable, but complex an ...
