Vladimir Leonidovich Popov (Russian: Влади́мир Леони́дович Попо́в; born 3 September 1946) is a Russian mathematician working in the invariant theory and the theory of transformation groups.[1]
Education and career
[edit]In 1969 he graduated from the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of Moscow State University. In 1972 he received his Candidate of Sciences degree (PhD) with thesis Стабильность действия алгебраических групп и арифметика квазиоднородных многообразий (Stability of the action of algebraic groups and the arithmetic of quasi-homogeneous varieties). In 1984 he received his Russian Doctor of Sciences degree (habilitation) with thesis Группы, образующие, сизигии и орбиты в теории инвариантов (Groups, generators, syzygies and orbits in the theory of invariants).[2][3]
He is a member of the Steklov Institute of Mathematics and a professor of the National Research University – Higher School of Economics.[1] In 1986, he was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians (Berkeley, USA),[4] and in 2008–2010 he was a core member of the panel for Section 2, "Algebra" of the Program Committee for the 2010 International Congress of Mathematicians (Hyderabad, India).[5]
In 1987 he published a proof of a conjecture of Claudio Procesi and Hanspeter Kraft.[6] In 2006, with Nicole Lemire and Zinovy Reichstein, Popov published a solution to a problem posed by Domingo Luna in 1973.[7]
Awards
[edit]In 2012, he was elected a member of the inaugural class of Fellows of the American Mathematical Society[8] which recognizes mathematicians who have made significant contributions to the field.
In 2016, he was elected a corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
