Olga Aleksandrovna Ladyzhenskaya (Russian: Ольга Александровна Ладыженская, IPA: [ˈolʲɡə ɐlʲɪˈksandrəvnə ɫɐˈdɨʐɨnskəɪ̯ə] ⓘ; 7 March 1922 – 12 January 2004) was a Russian mathematician who worked on partial differential equations, fluid dynamics, and the finite-difference method for the Navier–Stokes equations.
Google honored Olga Ladyzhenskaya on what would have been her 97th birthday. Her work impacted fields from weather forecasting to cardiovascular science.
The original such inequality, for functions of two real variables, was introduced by Ladyzhenskaya in 1958 to prove the existence and uniqueness of long-time solutions to the Navier–Stokes equations in two spatial dimensions (for smooth enough initial data). There is an analogous inequality for functions of three real variables, but the ...
Olga Ladyzhenskaya, made major contributions to solution of Hilbert's 19th problem and important Navier–Stokes equations Evgeny Landis , inventor of AVL tree algorithm Vladimir Levenshtein , developed the Levenshtein automaton , Levenshtein coding and Levenshtein distance
She earned a Ph.D. in 1960 from the same university, under the supervision of Olga Ladyzhenskaya, [4] [5] and completed her D.Sc. (the Soviet equivalent of a habilitation) in 1964. [4] She joined the faculty of Leningrad State University in 1959, and was promoted to professor in 1968 and department head in 1974. [1]
Olga Ladyzhenskaya provided the first rigorous proofs of the convergence of a finite difference method for the Navier–Stokes equations. Ladyzhenskaya was on the shortlist for potential recipients for the 1958 Fields Medal, [63] ultimately awarded to Klaus Roth and René Thom. [64] Braid groups are linear
The Noether Lecture is a distinguished lecture series that honors women "who have made fundamental and sustained contributions to the mathematical sciences". The Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) established the annual lectures in 1980 as the Emmy Noether Lectures, in honor of one of the leading mathematicians of her time.
Erdős in 1992. Paul Erdős (1913–1996) was a Hungarian mathematician. He considered mathematics to be a social activity and often collaborated on his papers, having 511 joint authors, many of whom also have their own collaborators.
