Vladimir Igorevich Arnold(orArnol'd;Russian:Влади́мир И́горевич Арно́льд,IPA:[vlɐˈdʲimʲɪrˈiɡərʲɪvʲɪtɕɐrˈnolʲt];12 June 1937 – 3 June 2010)[1][3][4]was a Soviet and Russian mathematician. He is best known for theKolmogorov–Arnold–Moser theoremregarding thestabilityofintegrable systems,and contributed to several areas, including geometrical theory ofdynamical systems theory,algebra,catastrophe theory,topology,real algebraic geometry,symplectic geometry,symplectic topology,differential equations,classical mechanics,differential geometric approach tohydrodynamics,geometric analysisandsingularity theory,including posing theADE classificationproblem.

His first main result was the solution ofHilbert's thirteenth problemin 1957 at the age of 19. He co-founded three newbranches of mathematics:topological Galois theory(with his studentAskold Khovanskii),symplectic topologyandKAM theory.

Arnold was also known as a popularizer of mathematics. Through his lectures, seminars, and as the author of several textbooks (such asMathematical Methods of Classical Mechanics) and popular mathematics books, he influenced many mathematicians and physicists.[5][6]Many of his books were translated into English. His views on education were particularly opposed to those ofBourbaki.

Biography[edit]

Vladimir Igorevich Arnold was born on 12 June 1937 inOdesa,Soviet Union(nowOdesa,Ukraine). His father was Igor Vladimirovich Arnold (1900–1948), a mathematician. His mother was Nina Alexandrovna Arnold (1909–1986,néeIsakovich), a Jewish art historian.[4]While a school student, Arnold once asked his father on the reason why the multiplication of two negative numbers yielded a positive number, and his father provided an answer involving thefield propertiesof real numbers and the preservation of thedistributive property.Arnold was deeply disappointed with this answer, and developed an aversion to theaxiomatic methodthat lasted through his life.[7]When Arnold was thirteen, his uncle Nikolai B. Zhitkov,[8]who was an engineer, told him aboutcalculusand how it could be used to understand some physical phenomena. This contributed to sparking his interest for mathematics, and he started to study by himself the mathematical books his father had left to him, which included some works ofLeonhard EulerandCharles Hermite.[9]

While a student ofAndrey KolmogorovatMoscow State Universityand still a teenager, Arnold showed in 1957 that any continuous function of several variables can be constructed with a finite number of two-variable functions, thereby solvingHilbert's thirteenth problem.[10]This is theKolmogorov–Arnold representation theorem.

After graduating from Moscow State University in 1959, he worked there until 1986 (a professor since 1965), and then atSteklov Mathematical Institute.

He became an academician of theAcademy of Sciences of the Soviet Union(Russian Academy of Sciencesince 1991) in 1990.[11]Arnold can be said to have initiated the theory ofsymplectic topologyas a distinct discipline. TheArnold conjectureon the number of fixed points ofHamiltonian symplectomorphismsandLagrangian intersectionswas also a motivation in the development ofFloer homology.

In 1999 he suffered a serious bicycle accident in Paris, resulting intraumatic brain injury.He regained consciousness after a few weeks but had amnesia and for some time could not even recognize his own wife at the hospital.[12]He went on to make a good recovery.[13]

Arnold worked at theSteklov Mathematical Institutein Moscow and atParis Dauphine Universityup until his death. His PhD students includeAlexander Givental,Victor Goryunov,Sabir Gusein-Zade,Emil Horozov,Yulij Ilyashenko,Boris Khesin,Askold Khovanskii,Nikolay Nekhoroshev,Boris Shapiro,Alexander Varchenko,Victor VassilievandVladimir Zakalyukin.[2]

To his students and colleagues Arnold was known also for his sense of humour. For example, once at his seminar in Moscow, at the beginning of the school year, when he usually was formulating new problems, he said:

There is a general principle that a stupid man can ask such questions to which one hundred wise men would not be able to answer. In accordance with this principle I shall formulate some problems.[14]

Death[edit]

Arnold died ofacute pancreatitis[15]on 3 June 2010 in Paris, nine days before his 73rd birthday.[16]He was buried on 15 June in Moscow, at theNovodevichy Monastery.[17]

In a telegram to Arnold's family,Russian PresidentDmitry Medvedevstated:

The death of Vladimir Arnold, one of the greatest mathematicians of our time, is an irretrievable loss for world science. It is difficult to overestimate the contribution made by academician Arnold to modern mathematics and the prestige of Russian science.

Teaching had a special place in Vladimir Arnold's life and he had great influence as an enlightened mentor who taught several generations of talented scientists.

The memory of Vladimir Arnold will forever remain in the hearts of his colleagues, friends and students, as well as everyone who knew and admired this brilliant man.[18]

Popular mathematical writings[edit]

Arnold is well known for his lucid writing style, combining mathematical rigour with physical intuition, and an easy conversational style of teaching and education. His writings present a fresh, oftengeometricapproach to traditional mathematical topics likeordinary differential equations,and his many textbooks have proved influential in the development of new areas of mathematics. The standard criticism about Arnold's pedagogy is that his books "are beautiful treatments of their subjects that are appreciated by experts, but too many details are omitted for students to learn the mathematics required to prove the statements that he so effortlessly justifies." His defense was that his books are meant to teach the subject to "those who truly wish to understand it" (Chicone, 2007).[19]

Arnold was an outspoken critic of the trend towards high levels of abstraction in mathematics during the middle of the last century. He had very strong opinions on how this approach—which was most popularly implemented by theBourbakischool in France—initially had a negative impact on Frenchmathematical education,and then later on that of other countries as well.[20][21]Arnold was very interested in thehistory of mathematics.[22]In an interview,[21]he said he had learned much of what he knew about mathematics through the study ofFelix Klein's bookDevelopment of Mathematics in the 19th Century—a book he often recommended to his students.[23]He studied the classics, most notably the works ofHuygens,NewtonandPoincaré,[24]and many times he reported to have found in their works ideas that had not been explored yet.[25]

Mathematical work[edit]

Arnold worked ondynamical systems theory,catastrophe theory,topology,algebraic geometry,symplectic geometry,differential equations,classical mechanics,hydrodynamicsandsingularity theory.[5]Michèle Audindescribed him as "a geometer in the widest possible sense of the word" and said that "he was very fast to make connections between different fields".[26]

Hilbert's thirteenth problem[edit]

The problem is the following question: can every continuous function of three variables be expressed as acompositionof finitely many continuous functions of two variables? The affirmative answer to this general question was given in 1957 by Vladimir Arnold, then only nineteen years old and a student ofAndrey Kolmogorov.Kolmogorov had shown in the previous year that any function of several variables can be constructed with a finite number of three-variable functions. Arnold then expanded on this work to show that only two-variable functions were in fact required, thus answering the Hilbert's question when posed for the class of continuous functions.[27]

Dynamical systems[edit]

Moserand Arnold expanded the ideas ofKolmogorov(who was inspired by questions ofPoincaré) and gave rise to what is now known asKolmogorov–Arnold–Moser theorem(or "KAM theory" ), which concerns the persistence of some quasi-periodic motions (nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems) when they are perturbed. KAM theory shows that, despite the perturbations, such systems can be stable over an infinite period of time, and specifies what the conditions for this are.[28]

In 1964, Arnold introduced theArnold web,the first example of a stochastic web.[29][30]

Singularity theory[edit]

In 1965, Arnold attendedRené Thom's seminar oncatastrophe theory.He later said of it: "I am deeply indebted to Thom, whose singularity seminar at theInstitut des Hautes Etudes Scientifiques,which I frequented throughout the year 1965, profoundly changed my mathematical universe. "[31]After this event,singularity theorybecame one of the major interests of Arnold and his students.[32]Among his most famous results in this area is his classification of simple singularities, contained in his paper "Normal forms of functions near degenerate critical points, the Weyl groups of Ak,Dk,Ekand Lagrangian singularities ".[33][34][35]

Fluid dynamics[edit]

In 1966, Arnold published "Sur la géométrie différentielle des groupes de Lie de dimension infinie et ses applications à l'hydrodynamique des fluides parfaits",in which he presented a common geometric interpretation for both theEuler's equations for rotating rigid bodiesand theEuler's equations of fluid dynamics,this effectively linked topics previously thought to be unrelated, and enabled mathematical solutions to many questions related to fluid flows and their turbulence.[36][37][38]

Real algebraic geometry[edit]

In the year 1971, Arnold published "On the arrangement of ovals of real plane algebraic curves, involutions of four-dimensional smoothmanifolds,and the arithmetic of integral quadratic forms ",[39]which gave new life toreal algebraic geometry.In it, he made major advances in the direction of a solution toGudkov's conjecture,by finding a connection between it andfour-dimensional topology.[40]The conjecture was to be later fully solved byV. A. Rokhlinbuilding on Arnold's work.[41][42]

Symplectic geometry[edit]

TheArnold conjecture,linking the number of fixed points of Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms and the topology of the subjacent manifolds, was the motivating source of many of the pioneer studies in symplectic topology.[43][44]

Topology[edit]

According toVictor Vassiliev,Arnold "worked comparatively little on topology for topology's sake." And he was rather motivated by problems on other areas of mathematics where topology could be of use. His contributions include the invention of a topological form of theAbel–Ruffini theoremand the initial development of some of the consequent ideas, a work which resulted in the creation of the field oftopological Galois theoryin the 1960s.[45][46]

Theory of plane curves[edit]

According toMarcel Berger,Arnold revolutionized plane curves theory.[47]Among his contributions are theArnold invariantsofplane curves.[48]

Other[edit]

Arnold conjectured the existence of thegömböc.[49]

Arnold generalized the results ofIsaac Newton,Pierre-Simon Laplace,andJames Ivoryon theshell theorem,showing it to be applicable to algebraic hypersurfaces.[50]

Honours and awards[edit]

TheArnold Mathematical Journal,published for the first time in 2015, is named after him.[65]

The Arnold Fellowships, of theLondon Instituteare named after him.[66][67]

He was a plenary speaker at both the 1974 and 1983International Congress of Mathematiciansin Vancouver andWarsaw,respectively.[68]

Fields Medal omission[edit]

Even though Arnold was nominated for the 1974Fields Medal,one of the highest honours a mathematician could receive, interference from the Soviet government led to it being withdrawn. Arnold's public opposition to the persecution ofdissidentshad led him into direct conflict with influential Soviet officials, and he suffered persecution himself, including not being allowed to leave the Soviet Union during most of the 1970s and 1980s.[69][70]
