Vadim Berezinskii was a prominent Soviet physicist known for his significant contributions to theoretical physics, particularly in the area of condensed matter physics. He is perhaps best known for his work on the theory of phase transitions and the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition, which describes a phase transition in two-dimensional systems. This work was instrumental in deepening our understanding of phenomena such as superconductivity and superfluidity in two-dimensional materials.
