Vladimir Miklyukov

Russian mathematician (1944–2013)

Vladimir Miklyukov is remembered in mathematics for work the next generation could build on.

The record lists Vladimir Miklyukov as Russian mathematician (1944–2013).

Vladimir Miklyukov was born in 1944. His recorded nationality is Russia. He studied at Vasyl' Stus Donetsk National University.

Twentieth-century mathematics became abstract and highly specialised, and its methods reached into physics, economics and computing.

His academic posts were held at Volgograd State University.

The recorded fields of work are mathematical analysis, function theory and theory of differential equations.

Mathematics accumulates without discarding: a proof from two thousand years ago is still a proof.

That the work was done from Russia matters: mathematical training, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.

Vladimir Miklyukov died in 2013, aged 69. The proofs remain, and a proof does not decay - which is the particular permanence mathematics offers.
