Professor Igor Belov is a Senior Researcher and Professor at Vilnius University's Institute of Data Science and Digital Technologies, specializing in analytic number theory, information security, and mathematical modeling. His research spans theoretical mathematics with practical applications in finance and computer science, particularly focusing on zeta functions, prime number theory, and stable distribution models. Education: Doctor of Physical Sciences (Mathematics) from Vilnius University and Vilnius Gediminas Technical University (2004) Master's degree in Statistics from Vilnius University (1999) Bachelor's degree in Mathematics Applications from Vilnius University (1997) Professor Belov's research interests center on analytic number theory with emphasis on Riemann zeta function and Dirichlet L-functions, combinatorial analysis, information security, and mathematical modeling of financial data using stable distributions. His recent work explores fractal structures related to zeta functions, efficient algorithms for zeta function calculations, and applications of machine learning in financial document analysis and securities price forecasting. His publication record demonstrates a strong trajectory from pure mathematical research toward interdisciplinary applications. While maintaining a robust foundation in analytic number theory, his recent work increasingly bridges theoretical mathematics with practical computing applications, particularly in financial modeling and information security. This evolution reflects a strategic expansion of his research impact across multiple domains. Scientific Awards: 1st place at the Vilnius Young Mathematicians' Olympiad (1990) Honorable mention at the Lithuanian Young Mathematicians Olympiad (1991) Letter of Commendation at the Lithuanian Young Mathematicians Olympiad (1992) Professor Belov actively supervises doctoral research and has served on numerous dissertation defense committees. He currently mentors four doctoral students working on zeta function algorithms, financial forecasting, document recognition, and blockchain acceleration. His research has been supported by multiple grants including the LMT project P-SV-23-9 on Mandelbrot bulbs visualization associated with the Riemann zeta function. He has also participated in international research collaborations at CINECA supercomputing center and Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. As a member of the Smart Technologies Research Group, Professor Belov contributes to Vilnius University's leadership in mathematical research and its applications, particularly in the areas of zeta function analysis and computational finance.
