Abstract

Abstract: A scientific session of the Physical Sciences Division of the Russian Academy of Sciences dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the birth of Academician E M Lifshitz was held in the conference hall of the institute of Physical Problems, RAS, on 26 March 2015. The agenda of the session announced on the website www.gpad.ac.ru of the PSD RAS contains the reports: (1)Khalatnikov I M (Landau Institute for Theoretical Physics, RAS, Moscow) "Problem of singularity in cosmology"; (2)Kats E I (Landau Institute for Theoretical Physics, RAS, Moscow) "Van der Waals, Casimir, and Lifshitz forces in soft matter"; (3)Volovik G E (Landau Institute for Theoretical Physics, RAS, Moscow) "Superfluids in rotation: Onsager-Feynman vortices and Landau-Lifshitz vortex sheets." Papers written on the basis of oral presentations 1-3 are published below. Stochastic cosmology, perturbation theories, and Lifshitz gravity, I M Khalatnikov, A Yu Kamenshchik Physics-Uspekhi, 2015, Volume 58, Number 9, Pages 878–891 Van der Waals, Casimir, and Lifshitz forces in soft matter, E I Kats Physics-Uspekhi, 2015, Volume 58, Number 9, Pages 892–896 Superfluids in rotation: Landau-Lifshitz vortex sheets vs Onsager-Feynman vortices, G E Volovik Physics-Uspekhi, 2015, Volume 58, Number 9, Pages 897–905
