Dmitri Fyodorovich Egorov (Russian: Дмитрий Фёдорович Егоров, English transliteration Dmitri Egorov; * 10 Dezemberjul / December 22 1869greg in Moscow, .. † September 10, 1931 in Kazan ), was a Russian mathematician who with Analysis (theory of real functions, integral equations, calculus of variations ) and differential geometry employed.

Yegorov went to school in Moscow and studied from 1887 at the Moscow State University mathematics and physics, among others, Nikolai Vasilyevich Bugayev ( 1837-1903 ). In 1891 he received his degree in 1892 and published his first mathematical work. From 1894 he taught at the university where he habilitated in 1901 (Russian doctoral degree ) and a professorship in 1903 was preserved. In 1917 he became secretary of the Moscow Mathematical Society, 1921 as Vice President and in 1922 its president. From 1923 he was director of the Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics of Moscow State University. Yegorov had a deep religious conviction and defended the hard pursued in the 1920s Orthodox Church, supported persecuted colleagues and opposed the spread of atheistic Marxist ideology against resistance. For this reason he was dismissed in 1929 as director of the institute and arrested soon thereafter. After the Moscow Mathematical Society refused to exclude him, whose leadership has been replaced. Yegorov was referred after a hunger strike in the prison hospital in Kazan, where he died. It is also reported that he died in the house of Chebotaryov whose gynecologist was in prison.

He and his students Nikolai Nikolaevich Luzin the founder of an influential school of real Analysis in Moscow. His set of Yegorov (1911 ) makes statements about the uniform convergence of a pointwise convergent sequence of measurable functions.

Among his students count Lusin, Ivan Petrovsky Georgijewitsch, Pavel Sergeyevich Alexandrov, Ivan Ivanovich Priwalow, Vladimir Vasilievich Golubev, VV Stepanov.
