Rozonoér

Soviet control engineer who, per Boltyanskii's testimony as retold by Pesch & Plail, was specifically encouraged by Pontryagin to publish a 1959 tripartite paper on the maximum principle in Avtomatika i Telemekhanika, in order to spread knowledge of the principle — and Pontryagin's name as its discoverer — into engineering circles.

Matters to this vault as a second, previously unrecorded instance of deliberate credit-shaping around the "Pontryagin maximum principle" naming convention, alongside the pressure Boltyanskii describes being put under directly (claim-boltyanskii-testimony-locates-pontryagin-naming-convention-in-internal-soviet-pressure, claim-pesch-plail-2012-retelling-of-boltyanskii-testimony-is-self-consistent-not-independent). This vault has not confirmed Rozonoér's full given initials or any other biographical detail; the surname and the 1959 tripartite engineering publication are the only facts the source attests, two steps removed from a primary (Boltyanskii's testimony, retold by Pesch & Plail).
