Naum Yakovlevich Vilenkin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Naum Yakovlevich Vilenkin (Russian: Наум Яковлевич Виленкин, October 30, 1920 in Moscow – October 19, 1991 in Moscow) was a Soviet mathematician, an expert in representation theory, the theory of special functions, functional analysis, and combinatorics. He is best known as the author of many books in recreational mathematics aimed at middle and high school students.

Biography

Vilenkin studied at the Moscow State University where he was a student of A.G. Kurosh. He received his degree of doktor nauk in physics and mathematics in 1950; and was awarded the Ushinsky prize for his school mathematics textbooks in 1976.

In 1975−1990 he assisted Lyudmila Georgievna Peterson in the development of a preschool and school curriculum for teaching mathematics.[1]
