Belousov Valentin Danilovich (02/20/1925 - 07/23/1988) - Moldavian Soviet mathematician, correspondent member of the Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of the USSR (1968). [1]

He graduated from the Kishinev Pedagogical Institute (1947), Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (1966), Professor (1967), honored worker of science and technology of the Moldavian SSR.

Since 1962, he worked at the Institute of Mathematics, Academy of Sciences of the Moldavian SSR. Major works include algebra, especially the theory of quasigroups and their applications. Known for his book "Fundamentals of the theory of quasigroups and loops" (1967), textbooks for schools. Laureate of the State Prize in Science and Technology of the Moldavian SSR.

Honored Worker of Science and Technology of MSSR (1970). Laureate of the State Prize for Science and Technology MSSR (1982). He is the founder of the theory of quasi-groups at school in the former USSR.

Educational activity

Valentin Danilovich Belousov was not only a scientist but also an excellent teacher. He has made important contributions to the system of education and training in Moldova Moldovan mathematicians. As a member of the Academy of Pedagogical Sciences (Mathematics section), he spent a great scientific and organizational work in the field of mathematics education. About 30 of his students defended their theses and work in many countries. Valentin Belousov and Y.I.Neagu wrote Moldovan-Russian Dictionary of Mathematics, which has long been used by mathematicians Moldova. Together with I.I.Lupu and Y.I.Neagu V.D.Belousov published a book of mathematics in schools of Moldova (1812-1972). For many years, V.D.Belousov was chairman of the jury of school mathematical Olympiads Moldova.

Trainees and graduates

Under the direction of Valentin Danilovich 22 mathematics from different republics of the former Soviet Union and from abroad defended their theses, four of them and defended their doctoral dissertations.

Social work

In parallel with the scientific and pedagogical activity Valentin Danilovich spent most public work as a deputy Balti City Council (1960-1962), member of the District Committee of the CPM (1967-1973), member of the Supreme Council of Moldova (1975-1980), member of the Presidium of the Society "Knowledge", a member of editorial boards of various domestic and foreign publications, organizing committee member of many international conferences.

School of Belousov

The lifework of Belousov Valentin Danilovich is continued his numerous disciples and followers in various countries, whose number is constantly increasing. In 1994 at the initiative of the students of V.D.Belousov at the Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science of the ASM was established scientific journal "Quasigroups and Related Systems(http://www.quasigroups.eu/)'", now known throughout the world. For twenty years this magazine published many articles both Moldovan and foreign specialists in the theory of quasi-groups and regions close to it. Since 1995, the Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science of the ASM annual birthday Valentin Danilovich (February 20) is carried out advanced algebraic seminar memory Belousov Valentin Danilovich. In this workshop, his disciples and followers from Moldova and other countries take stock of the past year, and report on new results in the theory of quasi-groups and related areas.

Thanks to the fruitful scientific and pedagogical activity V.D.Belousova Moldova was founded on the theory of quasigroups school (Belousov's School on Theory of Quasigroups), consisting of his 22 disciples (http://belousov.scerb.com/) and more than 40 followers continue his work in Moldova and abroad.
