Vladimir Mikhailovich Zakalyukin (in Russian: ÃÂûðôøüøàÃÂøÃÂ
ðùûþòøàÃÂðúðûÃÂúøý; 9 July 1951 â 30 December 2011) was a Russian mathematician known for his research on singularity theory, differential equations, and optimal control theory.
He obtained his Ph.D. at Moscow State University in 1977 (the thesis: "Lagrangian and Legendrian singularities"). His thesis advisor was Vladimir Arnold. In 2007 he won the MAIK Nauka award for best research publication in Russian. He worked at the Moscow State University, the University of Liverpool, and the Moscow Aviation Institute.
