History
Formally, the Mathematical Division of Institute for Low Temperature Physics and Engineering was established by a decree of the Presidium of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR dated October 5, 1987. However, the mathematical departments appeared at the Institute almost simultaneously with its foundation in 1960. At that time there were 5 mathematical departments in the Institute:
- function theory, headed by Naum Akhiezer;
- mathematical physics, headed by Vladimir Marchenko;
- geometry, headed by Aleksei Pogorelov;
- applied mathematics (from 1962), headed by Anatoly Myshkis;
- functional analysis and computational mathematics (from 1963), headed by Israel Glazman.
In the mathematical departments of the Institute at various times had worked and work now such well-known mathematicians as Yuri Aminov, Vladimir Drinfeld, Alexandr Eremenko, Boris Levin, Anatoly Milka, Iosif Ostrovskii, Leonid Pastur, Lev Ronkin, Fedor Rofe-Beketov, Mikhail Sodin, Yeugen Kruslov, Maria Scherbina, and others.
In 1990, Vladimir Drinfeld, who worked at the Mathematical Division from 1981 to 1999, was awarded by Fields Medal. [2]

Publishing
Since 2005, «Journal of Mathematical Physics, Analysis, Geometry» (formerly «Matematicheskaya Fizika, Analiz, Geometriya», until July 2005) is being published (four times a year). The journal is indexed by major scientometric databases. [3]
