Andrei Vladlenovich Zelevinsky (; 30 January 1953 – 10 April 2013)〔(News on website for the commutative algebra community )〕 was a Russian-American mathematician who made important contributions to algebra, combinatorics, and representation theory, among other areas. ==Biography== Zelevinsky graduated in 1969 from the Moscow Mathematical School No. 2.〔(Medal-winning graduates of the Moscow Mathematical School No. 2 )〕 After winning a silver medal as a member of the USSR team at the International Mathematical Olympiad〔(IMO Results )〕 he was admitted without examination to the mathematics department of Moscow State University where he obtained his PhD in 1978 under the mentorship of Joseph Bernstein, Alexandre Kirillov and Israel Gelfand.〔(A. Zelevinsky at the Mathematics Genealogy Project ).〕 He worked〔(A. Zelevinsky's cv )〕 in the mathematical laboratory of Vladimir Keilis-Borok at the Institute of Earth Science (1977–85), and at the Council for Cybernetics of the Soviet Academy of Sciences (1985–90). In the early 1980s, at a great personal risk, he taught at the Jewish Peoples' University,〔(You failed your math test, comrade Einstein )〕 an unofficial organization offering first-class mathematics education to talented students denied admission to Moscow State University's math department. In 1990-91, Zelevinsky was a visiting professor at Cornell University, and from 1991 until his death was on faculty at Northeastern University, Boston. With his wife, Galina, he had a son and a daughter; he also had several grandchildren.〔(Northeastern University, Math.
