Soviet Russian mathematician who made fundamental contributions to topology (Tikhonov's theorem on products of compact spaces), mathematical physics, and regularization methods for ill-posed problems.
Tikhonov's theorem: the product of any collection of compact topological spaces is compact (in the product topology). Tikhonov regularization: a method for solving ill-posed inverse problems by adding a regularization term — widely used in statistics and machine learning.
