International conference in memory of M. K. Polivanov "Polivanov–90" (December 16–17, 2020, online, Moscow)
Mikhail Konstantinovich Polivanov (1930-1992) was an outstanding Soviet
and
Russian theoretical physicist who made a fundamental contribution to
modern
mathematical and theoretical physics. Mikhail Konstantinovich is known
as one of the leading experts on quantum field theory and the theory of
dispersion relations. His works on
axiomatic quantum field theory and the theory of integrable systems are
well known.
From the very foundation of the journal "Theoretical and mathematical
physics"
Mikhail Konstantinovich was the Executive Secretary of the editorial
Board and
Deputy editor-in-chief of the journal. Since 1969 until
his death, he headed the Department of quantum field theory (now the
Department of theoretical physics) of Steklov Mathematical Institute.
We remember Mikhail Konstantinovich not only as an
outstanding scientist and teacher, but also as a wonderful person.
Financial support. The conference is supported by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation (the grant to the Steklov International Mathematical Center, agreement no. 075-15-2019-1614).
