Gamqrelidse studied at the State University in Tbilisi in 1945/46 and from 1946 at Lomonossow University , where he was a student of Lev Pontryagin and initially dealt with topology and algebraic geometry . In 1953 he received his doctorate (candidate title) and his habilitation in 1961 (Russian doctorate). Since 1953 he has been at the Steklow Institute in Moscow, where he was head of the differential equations and control theory department from 1988 to 1998 . In 1966 he became a professor.
With Pontryagin he developed the optimal control theory from 1955 (discovery of the maximum principle ). Her book about it received the Lenin Prize in 1962 . The theory emerged from the mathematical treatment of the optimal flight paths of aircraft and missiles.
He is the founding editor of the Encyclopedia of Mathematical Sciences (Springer Verlag).
Gamqredlidze has been a member of the Georgian Academy of Sciences since 1969 and he is a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences (corresponding member since 1981, full member since 2003). In 1980 he received the A. Razmadze Prize of the Georgian Academy of Sciences. In 1970 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Nice (Conditions necessaires du premier ordre dans le problemes d'extremum, with GL Kharatishvili).
He is the brother of Tamas Gamqrelidse .
