I removed every references to L.A. Leifert, since during a conversation about this Wikipedia entry Vladimir Maz'ya told me that Mikhlin never said him anything about that person: apparently he was completely unknown to him, and therefore he cannot have had any particular (good or bad) influence on Mikhlin's career. According to V. Maz'ya, he probably was not worser or better than many ones who lived in that period. Daniele.tampieri ( talk) 10:16, 18 April 2010 (UTC) reply

This article is grown so much thanks to the active collaboration of Vladimir Maz'ya and his wife Tatyana Shaposhnikova, who must be considered between the authors of it, even if their names aren't in the lists of the editors. -- Daniele.tampieri ( talk) 07:29, 20 June 2010 (UTC) reply
