Editor-in-chief of the journal Functional Analysis and Its Applications . He was the editor-in-chief of the journal Nature , and was a member of the first editorial board of the journal Theoretical and Mathematical Physics . He was a member of the editorial boards of the Journal of Mathematical Physics , Letters in Mathematical Physics "," Journal of Functional Analysis "," Reviews in Mathematical Physics "," Annals of Physics " and etc.

V.A. Foka and O.A. Ladyzhenskaya called his teachers (speech at the 2004 State Prize of the Russian Federation).

Wife - Anna Mikhailovna Veselova, theoretical physicist. Daughters - Elena, a mathematician; Maria, a theoretical physicist. 4 grandchildren.

He was buried in Zelenogorsk cemetery.

He made a fundamental contribution to the solution of the three-body problem in quantum mechanics ( the Faddeev equation ), the inverse problem of the scattering theory for the Schrödinger equation in the three-dimensional case, and the quantization of non-Abelian gauge fields by the path integral method ( Faddeev-Popov perfume , together with V. N. Popov ), in the creation of the quantum theory of solitons and the quantum method of the inverse problem; in the development of the theory of quantum groups. The author of more than 200 scientific papers and five monographs.
