Igor Dmitrievich Chueshov (23 September 1951 – 23 April 2016) was a Ukrainian mathematician. He was a correspondent member of the National Academy of Science of Ukraine for the Section of Mathematics (specializing in probability theory and mathematical physics), and a professor in the Department of Mathematical Physics and Computational Mathematics at V.N.Karazin Kharkiv National University.

Early life and academic career

Igor Dmitrievich was born on September 23, 1951, in Leningrad. In 1968, Dmitrievich graduated from high school in the city of Kupyansk (Kharkiv region) and joined the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics at Kharkiv University. In 1973, he graduated with a Master of Science degree in Mathematics. He worked at the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics from the time of graduation until his death.

In 1977, [1] he defended the Candidate of Sciences (similar to Ph.D.), and in 1990 he defended a Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences dissertation (equivalent to Habilitation) on the topic: "Mathematical description of the nonregular dynamics of the elastic shell".

In 1992, Chueshov became a Professor of the Department of Mathematical Physics and Computational Mathematics and was elected head of the department in February 2000. In February 2009, he was elected a Correspondent Member of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine for the Section of Mathematics (specialising in "Probability Theory and Mathematical Physics" ). He was also laureate of the State Prize of Ukraine in the field of science and technology (2010).

Research

Chueshov was the author of many important fundamental mathematical works. His research constitutes a significant contribution to mathematical physics and significantly influenced the development of the modern theory of infinite-dimensional dynamical systems[2]. He solved a number of important problems associated with nonlinear partial differential equations that arise in mechanics and physics,initiating the development of several areas in the qualitative theory of dissipative systems. Chueshov’s investigations were related to the well-posedness and asymptotic behaviour of the evolutionary von Karman equations describing nonlinear oscillations of a thin elastic shell under the influence of non-conservative loads. One of Chueshov’s theorems provided a solution to a well-known problem posed by I.V. Vorovich in the 1950's. The results became an essential step in understanding the structure of attractors for dynamical systems. Chueshov was also a pioneer in his mathematical work on nonlinear fluid-structure interactions models, especially those arising in aeroelasticity (for instance, the nonlinear model of a fluttering [link here] panel studied by Earl Dowell).

Chueshov succeeded in developing a new effective method for the analysis of general infinite-dimensional dissipative systems generated by nonlinear second-order in time equations. [3] [4]. Quasi-stability allows one to resolve many important questions that arise in the hyperbolic dynamics with nonlinear internal or boundary dissipation, relying only on a single estimate. I. Chueshov also obtained important results on the uniqueness of invariant measures for stochastic perturbations of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations in thin regions. The results provide a fundamental opportunity to use methods of two-dimensional stochastic hydrodynamics to describe the phenomenon of turbulence in some three-dimensional systems. Igor Dmitrievich was one of the founders of the theory of monotone stochastic dynamical systems. Together with Professor L. Arnold, he obtained fundamental results on the structure of random attractors and introduced the important concept of the semi-equilibrium state of a monotone stochastic system. These results became the basis of the unique monograph on monotonous stochastic dynamic systems published by Springer [5] in 2002.

He was the author of more than 150 scientific works which include 5 monographs[6][7], a member of the editorial board of the journals "Journal of Mathematical_Physics,_Analysis, Geometry", "Ukrainian Mathematical Journal", "Stochastics and Dynamics", "International Journal of Differential Equations" and "Visnyk of V.N.Karazin Kharkiv National University. Ser. Mathematics, Applied Mathematics and Mechanics"[8][9], and a member in several international mathematical societies as well as a guest professor at various universities. Under his supervision, seven candidates' theses (PhDs) were defended (A.Rezounenko, A.Rekalo, O.Shcherbina, T.Fastovskaya, I.Ryzhkova, O.Naboka, and M.Potemkin).
