报告人: Elena Kustova教授(圣彼得堡国立大学)

报告题目: Faculty of Mathematics and Mechanics: on the history and modern advances
报告摘要:  In this talk, a brief overview of the 300-year history of St. Petersburg scientific schools in mathematics and mechanics will be given. Starting from the foundation of the St. Petersburg University in 1724, mathematics was one of the most rapidly developing branches of science, attracting famous scientists from Russia and abroad, including Euler, Bernoulli, Chebyshev, Lyapunov, Steklov, Smirnov, Kantorovich and others. Widely known scientific schools and their achievements will be discussed. The current structure and main educational programs of the faculty will be introduced. The master program “Advanced Mechanics and Modeling” will be presented.
