It's now known as Steklov Institute of Mathematics. Steklov Institute of Mathematics or Steklov Mathematical Institute ( Russian: Математический институт имени В
Steklov's primary scientific contribution is in the area of orthogonal functional sets. In Mathematics, two Vectors are orthogonal if they are Perpendicular, i The Mathematical concept of a function expresses dependence between two quantities one of which is given (the independent variable, argument of the function He introduced a class of closed orthogonal sets; developed asymptotic Liouville-Steklov's method for orthogonal polynomials; proved theorems on generalized Fourier series. In Mathematics, an orthogonal polynomial sequence is an infinite sequence of real Polynomials p_0\ p_1\ p_2\ \ldots In Mathematical analysis, many generalizations of Fourier series have proved to be useful Steklov developed approximation technique later named Steklov function. He also worked on hydrodynamics and theory of elasticity. Fluid dynamics is the sub-discipline of Fluid mechanics dealing with fluid flow: Fluids ( Liquids and Gases in motion Solid mechanics is the branch of Mechanics, Physics, and Mathematics that concerns the behavior of solid matter under external actions (e
Steklov wrote a number of works on history of science.
Steklov died in Gaspra, Crimea, USSR (now Ukraine).
