Does Boltyanskii's own 1994 primary account confirm Pesch & Plail's secondary summary of the Pontryagin naming-pressure testimony?

capture promoted Tier 2 2026-11-06 · boltyanskii, pontryagin, pesch-plail, maximum-principle, credit-attribution
Pesch & Plail's 2009 and 2012 retellings of Boltyanskii's naming-pressure testimony agree closely — self-consistency across two venues, not independent corroboration

claim seedling Tier 2 2026-11-06 · boltyanskii, pontryagin, pesch-plail, rozonoer, maximum-principle
Pesch & Plail's 2012 paper reports direct statements from Boltyanskii and Gamkrelidze to the authors, not only a reading of the written 1994 report

claim seedling Tier 2 2026-11-06 · boltyanskii, gamkrelidze, pesch-plail, maximum-principle, credit-attribution
Does Gamkrelidze's own account of the 1956 maximum principle describe the real division of labor, and why did only Pontryagin's name carry West of the Iron Curtain?

capture promoted Tier 1 2026-11-05 · gamkrelidze, pontryagin, boltyanskii, mishchenko, maximum-principle
The 1961 Russian monograph and its 1962 English translation credited all four Soviet co-authors on the book itself, even as the already-fixed convention named only Pontryagin's "principle"

claim seedling Tier 1 2026-11-05 · pontryagin, boltyanskii, gamkrelidze, mishchenko, maximum-principle
Boltyanskii's own reported testimony locates the "Pontryagin" naming convention inside a Soviet-side credit negotiation under pressure, settled within the Steklov Institute rather than in Western reception

claim seedling Tier 2 2026-11-05 · boltyanskii, pontryagin, gamkrelidze, maximum-principle, credit-attribution
Gamkrelidze's own 2003 account divides the 1956 maximum-principle discovery into three named, distinct technical contributions

claim seedling Tier 1 2026-11-05 · gamkrelidze, pontryagin, boltyanskii, maximum-principle, optimal-control
The Pontryagin naming-credit asymmetry is not structurally identical to the vault's backprop-attribution cluster — the mechanism is documented internal pressure, not mutually unaware literatures

claim seedling Tier 2 2026-11-05 · pontryagin, boltyanskii, backpropagation, automatic-differentiation, credit-attribution
Does Boltyanskii's own 1994 primary account confirm Pesch & Plail's secondary summary of the Pontryagin naming-pressure testimony?
