Subject:
In the theory of minimal surfaces was proved the multidimensional Plateau problem in the class of spectral bordisms of Riemannian manifolds. Then, as application of this general construction, was proved the global minimality of many well-known submanifolds in homogeneous Riemannian spaces of compact Lie groups. New scientific branch was developed, namely, the theory of topological classification of nondegenerate Hamiltonian differential equations (dynamical systems) of general type. New topological invariants, describing the topological type of singularities of dynamical systems, were discovered. As a result, was obtained the classification of integrable Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom, up to Liouville equivalence and up to orbital equivalence (of topological and smooth type).
