Aleksandr (Alexander) Semenovich Kronrod was a Russian mathematician and computer scientist, best known for the Gauss-Kronrod quadrature formula which he published in 1964. Earlier his computations informed theoretical physics. He is also known for his contributions to economics, specifically for proposing corrections and calculating price formation for the USSR. Later, Kronrod gave his fortune and life to medicine to care for terminal cancer patients.

  • Aleksandr (Alexander) Semenovich Kronrod was a Russian mathematician and computer scientist, best known for the Gauss-Kronrod quadrature formula which he published in 1964. Earlier his computations informed theoretical physics. He is also known for his contributions to economics, specifically for proposing corrections and calculating price formation for the USSR. Later, Kronrod gave his fortune and life to medicine to care for terminal cancer patients. Kronrod is remembered for his captivating personality and was admired as a student, teacher and leader. He is the author of several well known books, including "Nodes and weights of quadrature formulas. Sixteen-place tables" and "Conversations on Programming". A biographer wrote Kronrod gave ideas "away left and right, quite honestly being convinced that the authorship belongs to the one who implements them."
  • Александр Семёнович Кронрод — советский математик. Окончил мех-мат. факультет МГУ. В 1941 после 3-го курса университета уходит воевать на фронт. Получил ранение в 1943, в госпитале на бумаге выполнил дипломную работу университета. Дважды лауреат премии Московского математического общества для молодых учёных. По теме «Теория функций 2-х переменных» была защищена докторская диссертация (1949). В начале 1950-х гг. возглавлял отдел в Институте теоретической и экспериментальной физики, связанного с атомным проектом. Вклад в развитие российского программирования, устройства вычислительных машин и вычислительной математики. Лауреат Сталинской премии.
