  Igor Dmitrievich Novikov
Igor Dmitrievich Novikov (Игор Дмитриевич Новиков) (born November 10, 1935) is a Russian theoretical astrophysicist and cosmologist.
Novikov formulated the Novikov self-consistency principle in the mid-1980s, an important contribution to the theory of time travel.
Novikov is married to Eleonora Kotok and has two children, Elena and Dimitry.

The assumption that time travel or superluminal communications is impossible allows one to derive interesting results such as the no cloning theorem, and how the rules of quantum mechanics work to preserve causality is an active area of research.
The Novikov self-consistency principle and recent calculations by Kip S. Thorne indicate that simple masses passing through time travel wormholes could never engender paradoxes—there are no initial conditions that lead to paradox once time travel is introduced.
From this point of view, the Novikov self-consistency principle is a tautology, a demand that hardly needs to be questioned, which automatically prevents causal paradoxes.
