(1937-2023)

|
Professor G.N. Milstein received his undergraduate degree
in mathematics from the Ural State University (UrGU; Sverdlovsk, USSR), which
is now Ural Federal University (Ekaterinburg, Russia). He completed his
PhD studies at the same University. Professor Milstein has been an assistant
professor, associate professor and, after defending his DSc thesis, professor
at the Faculty of Mathematics and Mechanics UrGU (then URFU). He also worked
as Senior Researcher at the Weierstrass Institute for Applied Analysis and
Stochastics (Berlin, Germany) and was a Visiting Professor at University of
Leicester (Leicester, UK) and University of Manchester (Manchester, UK).
Milstein was a world-leading expert in Stochastic
Numerics, Estimation, Control, Stability, Financial Mathematics. Milstein has
a number of pioneering works on Stochastic Numerics.
He published four research monographs and also
contributed to the second edition of R. Khasminskii Stochastic Stability of
Differential Equations, Springer, 2012.
