Kolmogorov, Andrei was born on April 25, 1903 in Tambov.
Graduated from Moscow University, 1925.
Professor, 1931. Held the chair of theory of probability from 1937 at Moscow University. His book Foundations of the Calculus of Probabilities was published in 1933 in German. Simultaneously with, and independently from, Norbert Wiener, developed the theory of the smoothing and prediction of stationary time-theories.
Academician, 1939. During World War II, worked in many branches of science, such as the birth and death processes of plants, and genetic processes. The results brought him into serious conflict with Lysenko, who dominated in this area. Made a very important contribution to research into turbulence.
This work was published in English in 1941 by the Academy of Sciences of the USSR and delivered to English libraries during the war. His greatest contribution came in 1954 when he demonstrated that a large set of nested toroidal (ringshaped or tori) surfaces survived perturbation. This led to a breakthrough in the study of general Hamiltonian systems in which the K.A.M. tori (named after Kolmogorov and his two pupils, V. Arnold and J. Moser) played a pivotal role.
Was known as a generous Russian host who wined and dined the international set of mathematicians at his magnificent country house not far from Moscow. One of the greatest mathematicians of the 20th century. Wrote on the theory of probability, theory of functions, mathematical logic, functional analyses and other subjects.
