Why are they so awesome?
>>
>>8468336
Because russian mathematicians are awesome. Mathematics was always like a popular sport for russians and they had many clubs where children learned math after school. Unlike other sciences the russians didn't shorten the sponsoring for math during WW2 and the cold war (the government didn't understand the math and didn't find traces of dangerous mindset, kek). That's why people like Perelman had a chance to develop their talent.

But Rudin and Tao's textbooks are far superior to Zorich? What are you on about?

and Königsberger

Another entertaining book from Russian authors.

Bumping for this. Post the best Russian mathematics/physics textbooks.

>>8468714
They are not translated mostly. Matveev's books on general physics for example.

>>8468735
Thanks anon. I checked it. But it's translated, right? The reviews says so.

Also, any more books like these? Or of anything relate to science, mathematics or technology from the Soviet era. Thanks a lot.

Ruskies are not rigorous hence they should burn in hell.

russians are most rigorous tbqh

There are five volumes in Russian (thermo, e&m, optics and nuclear/quantum)

I'm a Ukrainian, so I have a chance to read them in original. Strangely, but Shilov have 0 popularity here (in Russia too). I didn't ever hear about these books before Amazon and 4chan.

This book is popular as advanced linear algebra title (I don't know who is Suetin, maybe a translator):
https://www.amazon.com/Linear-Algebra-Geometry-Logic-Applications/dp/2881246834/

There are an old but very comprehensive course of math for physicists by Smirnov (A Course in Higher Mathematics, there are a couple of volumes on libgen), which can be a great reading supplement for such exercises-courses like Riley, Hobson, etc.

I think you know about Landau-Lifshitz series, Arnold's Diff-equations, etc., don't you?
Maybe add something later.

It's fucking eternal. I really think people will still use a hundred years later.

>>8468530
All my Russian math professors were world class and from old soviet schools. Are new Russians taught the way they were?
>>

>Are new Russians taught the way they were?
No, all cool guys emigrated to the USA.
>>
>>8470039
I hate when they'll retire then. They were really abrasive too and not politically correct. Heard one story from a friend that said one of the Profs told the student to kill themselves when they asked too basic of a question in a topology course.
>>
>>8469991
I have some of the Landau-Lifshitz and they are nothing like modern theoretical physics textbooks.
Then I remember complains about Vladimir Arnold not being rigorous.
>>
>>8470054
Then I'm using a textbook from a Russian now (not going to say which) and I don't like it for the same reason.

What about Fichtengolz's "Differential and Integral Calculus"? Heard good things about it.
>>
>>8470065
It's a sub-analysis course, like Spivak, but fuller. Good as a second course.
>>
>>8470043
Hate when second rate profs in second rate unis throw their frustrations to students.

How did Russian school children learn to be able to tackle the more advanced books to become the gods they are in math and physics? Are there standard school books they used?

Enjoy.

Oh thanks for this anon. I do know about Landau-Lifshitz series. It'd be awesome if you can add some more :)

i studied in russia for a while
they have some very strong high schools that focus on math

i'm talking about learning manifolds and getting assigned the fundamental theorem of algebra as homework before you're 17

In the USSR they had a couple of series for children, written by professional mathematicians and physicists in non-trivial manner. Bibliotechka Quant, for example. If you treat children like adults, you can expect that some number of them pass throught all difficulties with understanding of subject.

Something tells me that if the US tried this so many people would bitch about their kids being too dumb
