Biography about mathematics
The life of the Academy is the life and activities of outstanding mathematicians in the framework of the educational work of the department “Higher Mathematics and Natural Sciences”, students' report on the activities of Ventzel Elena Sergeevna was heard with the 1st year of specialty. Born on March 8 and raised in Tallinn. Soviet mathematician, author of textbooks on probability theory and research research, Russian prose writer, doctor of technical sciences, professor.
When the girl was 16 years old, she entered the University of Petrograd, engaged in different teachers who noted her abilities for accurate sciences. She worked at the Moscow Academy. Zhukovsky S - in G. C to G. In the last years of her work in MIITA, employees of the Department of Applied Mathematics walked towards her in every possible way, taking part of her load, if only she remained to work at the department.
In the MITS period, she published a number of works on the application of mathematical methods in the management of railway transport. Her activities in MITA played an important role in the implementation of probabilistic methods, mass -service theory, dynamic and linear programming in scientific research of problems in the field of transport. Elena Sergeevna continued to publish textbooks during this period - together with L.
Ovcharov, she prepared two new textbooks on probability theory and random processes, as well as an extremely popular task for the theory of probabilities. Several generations of Soviet engineers studied on its textbook “The theory of probabilities”. These teaching aids were also translated into many languages and published by millions of print runs in our country and abroad.
Scientists and graduate students of engineering departments came here to consult on mathematical modeling of technical processes and devices. Mathematics students received the most valuable skills of applied research, and engineers-real assistance in solving their problems. Being an excellent lecturer, Elena Sergeevna, nevertheless, believed that the basis of higher education is the individual work of the teacher with a student during the leadership of the course and diploma design or the involvement of students to the scientific work of the department.
Many of those who in the student years have been lucky to work under the leadership of E. Ventzel, became authors of serious scientific works. During the years in MIIT, there are most of its journalistic speeches on topical issues of higher education, on the methodology of applied mathematics, on the characteristic features of modern scientific life. The list of scientific works E.
Ventzel has about seventy open and sixty closed works, the total volume of which is approached by three hundred printed sheets, but the most famous: “probability theory”, “elements of games theory”, “research of operations.
Methodology ”,“ Introduction to the study of operations ”,“ Elements of dynamic programming ”. Elena Sergeevna Ventzel was a talented prose writer. Ventzel was engaged in literary activity under the pseudonym of I. Grekov from the word “Igrek” - a mathematical sign denoting the unknown that needs to be found. I began to publish at the beginning of X in the New World magazine, which at that time led A.
It was there that its novels that became the famous novels and the stories “For Passing”, “Damian Master”, “On Tests” according to the literary works of I. Grekova staged performances and films. Students loved her for a kind of ability to present educational material. She managed to constantly keep the audience in tension. It was a mathematician with a capital letter.
This woman harmoniously combines the ability to write and teach accurate sciences. She lived a life full of various achievements, achievements and difficulties, but, in spite of everything, she managed to become a great person, to write many interesting books. A presentation illustrating the scientific and political views of the scientist was demonstrated, aspects of personal life and their relationships with family and colleagues are highlighted.
The issues raised during the discussion aroused great interest among students.
