In 2004 he was awarded the Celsius medal in gold for his outstanding contributions to the theory of partial differential equations and hydrodynamics. Maz”ya published over 400 papers and 15 books in various domains of the theory of differential equations, functional analysis, approximation theory, numerical methods, and applications to mechanics and mathematical physics (for more information see www.mai.liu.se/~vlmaz). Tatyana Shaposhnikova is a professor at Linkoeping University. She works in function theory, functional analysis and their applications to partial differential and integral equations. The list of her publications contain three books and more than 70 articles. Together with V.
