Nikolai V. Ivanov (in Russian: Николай В. Иванов, born in 1954) is a Russian mathematician who works on topology, geometry and group theory (particularly, modular Teichmüller groups).[1] He is a professor at Michigan State University.[2]

He obtained his Ph.D. under the guidance of Vladimir Abramovich Rokhlin in 1980 at the Steklov Mathematical Institute.[3]

According to Google Scholar, on 6 March 2016, Ivanov's works had already received more than 1990 citations and his h-index was 23.[2]

He is a fellow of the American Mathematical Society since 2012.[4]

He is the author of the book Subgroups of Teichmüller Modular Groups.[5]
