  D.K.Faddeev   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
A distinctive feature of Faddeev's approach to the teaching of mathematics in schools is his clearly expressed and logically developed chain of ideas in the courses he devised on algebra and basic analysis.
The essence of his ideas is expressed in his own words: "The elementary part of mathematics is the simplest of the sciences, since its object is a study of the crudest aspects of reality".
Faddeev then goes on to subtle mathematical ideas of continuity, of limit, of smoothness of a function, of a derivative, by way of a practical, intelligent and interesting use of the concept of a number as the result of measurement or of a rationally and appropriately executed calculation.

Coming from such mathematically talented families, it will come as no surprise to learn that Sergei was not the only one of Petr and Ludmila's five children to follow a career in the mathematical sciences.
Sergei grew up in a mathematical environment, not only the result of the mathematical interests of family members around him but also since a special society was formed where the children of various mathematicians received additional instruction.
He took part in Mathematical Olympiad Competitions when aged 13 and 14 and both he and his school teachers were thus fully aware of his outstanding talents.

Despite periodic claims, it looked like the institute would hold on to the cash until after the sun burned out.
Perelman, long affiliated with the Steklov Institute of Mathematics in St. Petersburg, apparently has no intention of saying more.
The dilemma for the Clay Institute is that, according to its rules, a proof must be published in a refereed math publication.
