These personal reminiscences of the great Russian mathematician Sergey K. Godunov (1929-2023) arose from a request by his daughter, Ekaterina, to contribute a piece to a book she is writing about her father's life. I was honoured to accept…

Vladimir Andreevich Uspensky [1930-2018] was one of the Soviet pioneers of the theory of computation and mathematical logic in general (and my teacher and thesis advisor). This paper is the survey of his mathematical works and their…

The 'Konstantinov System' was a non-standard educational institution created by the great mathematical educator Nikolay Konstantinov (1932-2021), this 'System' worked (mainly in Moscow) in 1960-80s. We discuss some sides of technologies of…

Many physical systems can be studied as collections of particles embedded in space, evolving through deterministic evolution equations. Natural questions arise concerning how to characterize these arrangements - are they ordered or…

In November 2014 Alexander Grothendieck passed away at the age of 86. There is no doubt that he was one of the greatest and most innovative mathematicians of the 20th century. After a bitter childhood, his meteoric ascent started in the…

This is a short overview of the origins of distribution theory as well as the life of Sergei Sobolev (1908--1989) and his contribution to the formation of the modern outlook of mathematics.

The following is an exposition of a course of algebra that Prof. Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Zykov (1922-2013) distributed among the participants of his seminar in graph theory not far away from Odessa, Ukraine, on September, 1991. It is a…

This is an expanded version of my talk given at the International Conference ``Algebra and Number Theory'' dedicated to the 80th anniversary of V. E. Voskresenskii, which was held at the Samara State University in May 2007. The goal is to…

In this brief note, there is a short recollection of my scientific interactions with the great Russian mathematician Sergey Konstantinovich Godunov.

Alexander Andreevich Andrianov was a remarkable personality in Russian physics during the last decades. A member of th prestigious school of theoretical physics in Saint Petersburg, he made relevant contributions to a number of topics along…

The Voronoi diagram of a finite set of objects is a fundamental geometric structure that subdivides the embedding space into regions, each region consisting of the points that are closer to a given object than to the others. We may define…

The prominent Russian mathematician Igor Rostislavovich Shafarevich passed away on February 19, 2017. In this article we supply his biography, discuss his many important contributions to number theory, algebra and algebraic geometry, and…

Angular Voronoi diagram was introduced by Asano et al. as fundamental research for a mesh generation. In an angular Voronoi diagram, the edges are curves of degree three. From view of computational robustness we need to treat the curves…

Prof. K.G Ramanathan was a legendary Indian Mathematician, working in Number Theory and a prolific Institution builder. Apart from this, he was an excellent teacher and influenced several brilliant students. In this article, we overview his…

Dmitri Ivanenko, professor of Moscow State University, was one of the great theoreticians of XX century, an author of the proton-neutron model of atomic nucleus. In honor of the 110th Year Anniversary.

Voronoi diagrams appear in many areas in science and technology and have numerous applications. They have been the subject of extensive investigation during the last decades. Roughly speaking, they are a certain decomposition of a given…

The article is a report on the biography and achievements of Ernest Borisovich Vinberg, an outstanding Russian mathematician, who passed away in Moscow on May 12, 2020. We discuss his contributions to various areas of mathematics such as…

During the Foundations of Future Communication Systems (FFCS) conference in Braunschweig, a dedicated memorial session was held in honor of Dr. Vladimir (Volodya) Sidorenko (1949-2025). The session, chaired by Minglai Cai, brought together…
