Abstract:

G. M. Goluzin crucially influenced the development and extension of geometric function theory. His results received world-wide recognition, and his monograph “Geometric theory of functions of a complex variable” has been a reference book for several generations of analysts.

This paper is a survey of Goluzin’s scientific work on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of his birth.
