Letter of Recommendation for MIPT Alumnus (01/2003)
The Physics Student admitted to MIT, Princeton, UC Berkeley,
Stanford
LETTER OF RECOMENDATION
Applicant: Ivan Ivanov
Recommender: Prof. Petr P. Petrov
I have known Ivan Ivanov since February 2000. Being a second-year
student, he attended my lectures on XX, and the next academic year -
on YY. While attending my lectures, he showed himself as an active
and hard-working student. We frequently discussed various physics
problems beyond the scope of my course, and I was surprised by his
remarkable analytical abilities and originality of his ideas.
After completing my courses Ivan continued to keep in touch with me.
In 2001 he joined Landau Institute Theory group. In order to be
admitted to this group, Ivan successfully passed a highly
competitive and difficult Landau Theoretical Minimum exam on Quantum
Mechanics. This fact characterizes Ivan as a purposeful person with
a great ability for independent work. He has also successfully
passed non-obligatory Landau Theoretical Minimum exams on General
Relativity, Statistical Mechanics and Electrodynamics of Continuous
Media.
By now, Ivan's background in theoretical physics is strikingly deep
and wide. In his bachelor thesis, which was in the field of quantum
Hall effect, he used sophisticated techniques of modern Quantum
Field Theory as well as Condensed Matter theory. Ivan’s profound
knowledge of Quantum Field Theory is also proved by the fact that he
has translated into Russian several chapters of XX's book "Quantum
...". His translation will be published in a few months by “Nauka”,
the most respectable Russian scientific publishing company.
I regard Ivan's academic and research abilities as excellent. I'm
sure that he is one of the top 2% of MIPT students. I strongly
recommend him for graduate study at Massachusetts Institute of
Technology.
Yours sincerely, 11/12/02
