It is noted that the 41-year-old Russian mathematician became the youngest member of the Finnish academy among foreigners, TASS reports.

The academy noted not only the talent and achievements of the scientist and his department, but also the results of joint activities of St. Petersburg State University and the Finnish University of Jyväskylä. Since 2007, universities have been linked by a scientific and educational program, the implementation of which was twice reported to the heads of the two countries.
