But (the paradoxes of pedagogy!) He liked to draw, . love of art, . painting (Rembrandt, . Serov, . Nesterov) will in the future an integral part of a comprehensive development of gifted nature, . and his fundamental works in the field of mathematics in many ways and for a long time, determine the nature of a number of areas of modern science,
. First, Ivan Petrovsky comes to a natural separation of physical and mathematical faculty of Moscow University, but soon left him and returned to the family moved to this time in Yelisavetgrad. Here he learns in the Mechanical Engineering Institute, where he showed his interest in mathematics under the influence of the book Zhukovsky on theoretical mechanics. Returning to the university in 1922, he determined the Mathematics Department of Physics and Mathematics.

In 1927, Mr.. V student of the course, Ivan Petrovski took part in the first All-Russia Congress of Mathematicians, delivered a welcome speech on behalf of youth physical-mathematical faculty of Moscow State University.

Great influence on the young professor had Petrovsky. DF Egorov, a graduate student whom he was in 1927-1930.

. In the thirties, Ivan Georgievich obtained fundamental results in various areas of mathematics: in algebraic geometry, . probability theory, . theory of ordinary differential equations, . mathematical physics, . theory of partial differential equations,
. Experts note, . that "despite the" purely mathematical "character of the major works of Petrovsky, . they essentially reflected his view of mathematics as an integral part of natural, . on which we base the conclusion and understanding of quantitative and qualitative patterns, . constituting the content of the natural sciences.,

. Since 1933
. Ivan G. Professor of Moscow University. In 1935. approved without defending a thesis Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences. In 1940. became dean of Mechanics and Mathematics Faculty of Moscow State University. During the war he was made a deep and meaningful work on the gaps and diffusion of waves. In 1943, Mr..

. Drawing attention to the problem of pre-university education, Peter was one of the initiators of the organization of refresher courses for teachers of secondary schools, institutions of mathematical correspondence schools and boarding schools at MSU.

. Annals of the Moscow University Petrovsky times consecutively recorded pulse lead institution of the country: the first finds of birch-bark letters of the Novgorod archaeological expedition, . allocation from the University of Physical-Technical Faculty and the creation on its basis of the Moscow Physical-Technical Institute, . creation of the School of Journalism, . organization of the preparatory faculty for foreign citizens, . organization in Mechanics and Mathematics Department of the Research Institute of Mechanics, . organization in g,

With high scientific authority, Rector was able to attract the greatest scientists in the university of the country (including over a hundred members of the USSR). , Activities focus on basic research in the departments. University came in first place in the number of graduate. Faculties and institutes have the latest experimental equipment. Much has been made Petrovsky for expansion of contacts with major research and educational centers of the world.

Ivan Georgievich colleagues at the university pointed out "one of the most attractive features of his character and the availability of interest to the world around.
