Scientific career

VA Zorich is an expert in various fields of

mathematical analysis Analysis is the branch of mathematics dealing with continuous functions, limit (mathematics), limits, and related theories, such as Derivative, differentiation, Integral, integration, measure (mathematics), measure, infinite sequences, series (m ...

conformal geometry In mathematics, conformal geometry is the study of the set of angle-preserving ( conformal) transformations on a space. In a real two dimensional space, conformal geometry is precisely the geometry of Riemann surfaces. In space higher than two d ...

, and the theory of

quasi-conformal mappings In mathematical complex analysis, a quasiconformal mapping, introduced by and named by , is a homeomorphism between plane domains which to first order takes small circles to small ellipses of bounded eccentricity. Intuitively, let ''f'' : ''D'' ...

. He graduated from the Mechanics and Matheers Faculty of MV Lomonosov Moscow State University in 1960. In 1963 he graduated from the graduate school of the faculty (department of theory of functions and functional analysis) and defended his thesis "Compliance boundaries for some classes of mappings in space", which was noted as outstanding. In 1969 he defended his doctoral thesis "Global reversibility of quasi-conformal mappings of space". Zorich had been teaching in the department of mathematical analysis of Mechanics and Mathematics Faculty: since 1963 - as an assistant, since 1969 - an assistant professor, and since 1971 - a professor.
