Boris Petrovich Komrakov

Boris Petrovich Komrakow ( Russian Борис Петрович Комраков ; born October 30, 1948 in Stanislav ) is a Russian mathematician who deals with Lie groups .

Komrakow received his doctorate from the University of Tartu (Primitive actions and the Sophus Lie Problem) in Estonia in 1991 , but has been publishing in Minsk since the 1970s. He is professor and director at the Sophus Lie Center in Minsk , founded in 1990 , which also worked with the University of Oslo. In 1997 he received the Lobachevsky Medal for his work on the theory of Lie groups, in particular for “Primitive actions and the Sophus Lie problem” and the book “Structures on manifolds and homogeneous spaces”. Komrakow takes up the original motivation of Sophus Lie in the development of the theory of Lie groups and deals with its applications in differential geometry and the theory of differential equations .
