Witold Lvovitch Schmulian (Russian Витольд Львович Шмульян, in other transliteration also Šmulian; * August 29, 1914, † 1944 in Praga (Warsaw) ) was a Russian mathematician.

Schmulian achieved in 1936 his first degree in Mathematics at the State University of Odessa and continued his studies with Mark Grigoryevich Krein continued, who aroused his interest in functional analysis, in particular for the geometry in Banach spaces. In the period 1937-1941 he published 20 works.

Schmulian then entered the military service, but continued to do research, as far as was possible to continuously and shared his results and articles in letters to the Steklov Institute. The pressure of his last work Andrei Nikolaevich Kolmogorov was prepared by when he already was no longer alive. Schmulian fell in 1944, a few days before his thirtieth birthday, in Prague, where he was buried.

The set of Eberlein - Šmulian and the Krein - Šmulian are associated with his name.
