Demidov, S. S.; Esakov, V. D. The case of Academician N. N. Luzin in the context of Stalin’s reform of Soviet science. (Russian. English summary) Zbl 0971.01007 Istor.-Mat. Issled., II. Ser. 4(39), 156-171, 359 (1999). The paper is devoted to certain aspects of the so-called “Luzin affair” from the 1930’s. In particular, some interesting material is included: a 1931 letter by E. Kolman urging the initiation of a case against Luzin, a 1936 letter by L. Mekhlis urging that Luzin be included in the Bukharin-Rykov affair. These documents shed new light on the problem.
