Nizhny Novgorod mathematician Artemiy Grigorievich Mayer and his course of the history of mathematics (to the 110th anniversary since the birth)

G. M. Polotovsky



Abstract: Professor Artemiy Grigoryevich Mayer was one of the closest employees of academician A. A. Andronov. He is the author of a number of classical results (about dynamic systems on surfaces, about the central trajectories in Birkgof's problem, etc.). The short review of scientific results of Mayer will be given and will be told about the little-known facts of his biography, including history of persecution of A. G. Mayer in 1950 by reason of his “ideological mistakes in a course of history of mathematics”.
