Biography edit
In 1970, Feldman graduated in the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University. From 1970 to 1973, he was a PhD student at B. Verkin Institute for Low Temperature Physics and Engineering. In 1973, he defended his thesis Harmonic Analysis of Non-unitary Representations of Locally Compact Abelian Groups (supervisor Prof. Yu. I. Lyubich) [2] and obtained a degree of Candidate of Sciences (PhD). He has been working at B. Verkin Institute for Low Temperature Physics and Engineering, starting as a junior researcher and heading the Mathematical Division in 2012. In 1985, he defended his doctoral thesis, Arithmetic of Probability Measures on Locally Compact Abelian groups at Vilnius University and obtained a degree of Doctor of Sciences (Dr. Hab.). In 2018, he was elected as a corresponding member of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. For more than 20 years, Feldman worked part-time at the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University. He is the author of 5 monographs and more than 100 scientific articles.
Feldman specializes in the field of abstract harmonic analysis and algebraic probability theory. He constructed a theory of decompositions of random variables and proved analogs of the classical characterization theorems of mathematical statistics in the case when random variables take values in various classes of locally compact Abelian groups (discrete, compact, and others).
