Wladimir Michailowitsch Tichomirow ( Russian Владимир Михайлович Тихомиров ; English transcription Vladimir Mikhailovich Tikhomirov; born November 22, 1934 in Moscow ) is a Russian mathematician who deals with analysis.

Tichomirow was a student of Andrei Kolmogorow at Lomonosov University , where he studied from 1950 to 1957, received his doctorate in 1960 (candidate title), habilitated in 1971 (Russian doctorate) and became a professor in 1975. He was professor of control theory at Lomonosov University in the Faculty of Mathematics and Mechanics for thirty years. He is one of the founders of the Independent Moscow University (IUM), where he also taught.

Tichomirow deals with approximation theory, control theory, variation problems and convex analysis. He also worked in the popularization of mathematics, for example as editor of the magazine Quant.

He is on the Council of the Moscow Mathematical Society .

In 1991 he published three volumes of Selected Works by his teacher Kolmogorow.
