Mathematics

Yakov Grigorevich Sinai is a Russian-American mathematician, born in 1935, known for his work on dynamical systems. He contributed to the modern metric theory of dynamical systems and connected deterministic systems with probabilistic ones, and he has also worked on mathematical physics and probability theory, providing groundwork for advances in the physical sciences. He has won several awards, including the Nemmers Prize, the Wolf Prize in Mathematics and the Abel Prize. He has been professor of mathematics at Princeton University since 1993 and holds the position of Senior Researcher at the Landau Institute for Theoretical Physics in Moscow.
