VINOGRADOV, IVAN MATVEEVICH (Mathematician) 



I. V. Vinogradov was born September 14, 1891. He gradu- 

 ated from the Petersburg University in 1914 and remained 

 there to prepare for a doctor's degree. From 1918-1920 he 

 was a reader and professor at the Perm University, 1920-1934 

 a professor at Leningrad Polytechnical Institute, and in 1925 

 professor at the Leningrad University. In 1932 Vinogradov be- 

 came Director of the Mathematics Institute of the U.S.S.R. 

 Academy of Sciences. He has been an Academician of the 

 U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences since 1929. In 1945 he was re- 

 cipient of a Stalin Prize and also a Hero of Socialist Labor. 



Vinogradov's scientific activity pertains to the area of ana- 

 lytical theory of numbers. His first work is devoted to ques- 

 tions of determining errors of approximate formulas, which 

 express the sums of values of various arithmetical functions. 

 In 1937 Vinogradov derived the formula for a number of repre- 

 sentations of the odd number in the form of a sum of three 

 simple numbers, and used them to obtain a solution of the 

 Goldbach problem. 



In 1961 Vinogradov was awarded the Order of Lenin.
