About the Author

Alexey Stakhov, born in May 7, 1939, is a Ukrainian mathematician, inventor and engineer, who has made a contribution to the theory of Fibonacci numbers and the golden section and their applications in computer science and measurement theory. He is a Doctor of Computer Science (1972) and a Professor (1974), and the author of over 500 publications, 14 books and 65 international patents. He is also the author of many original publications in computer science and mathematics, including algorithmic measurement theory [16, 17], Fibonacci codes and codes of the golden proportions [19], hyperbolic Fibonacci and Lucas functions [64, 75] and finally the Mathematics of Harmony [6], which goes back in its origins to Euclid’s Elements. In these areas, Alexey Stakhov has written many papers and books, which have been published in famous scientific journals by prestigious international publishers.

The making of Alexey Stakhov as a scientist is inextricably linked with the Kharkov Institute for Radio Electronics, where he was a postgraduate student of the Technical Cybernetics Department from 1963 to 1966. Here, he defended his PhD thesis in the field of Technical Cybernetics (1966) under the leadership of the prominent Ukrainian scientist Professor Alexander Volkov. In 1972, Stakhov defended (at the age of 32 years) his Grand Doctoral dissertation Synthesis of Optimal Algorithms for Analog-to-Digital Conversion (Computer Science speciality). Although the dissertation had an engineering character, Stakhov in his books and articles touched upon two fundamental problems of mathematics: theory of measurement and numeral systems.

Prof. Stakhov worked as “Visiting Professor” of different Universities: Vienna Technical University (Austria, 1976), University of Jena (Germany, 1986), Dresden Technical University (Germany, 1988), Al Fateh University (Tripoli, Libya, 1995–1997), Eduardo Mondlane University (Maputo, Mozambique, 1998–2000).

Stakhov’s Prizes and Awards

• Award for the best scientific publication by Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine (1980);

• Barkhausen’s Commemorative Medal issued by the Dresden Technical University as “Visiting Professor” of Heinrich Barkhausen’s Department (1988);

• Emeritus Professor of Taganrog University of Radio Engineering (2004);

• The honorary title of “Knight of Arts and Sciences” (Russian Academy of Natural Sciences, 2009);

• The honorary title “Doctor of the Sacred Geometry in Mathematics” (American Society of the Golden Section, 2010);

• Awarded “Leonardo Fibonacci Commemorative Medal” (Interdisciplinary Journal “De Lapide Philosophorum”, 2015).
