Alexander Lvovich Rosenberg (Russian: Александр Львович Розенберг, 1946–2012)[2] was a Russian-American mathematician who worked on functional analysis, representation theory and noncommutative algebraic geometry.[3] He graduated from Lomonosov Moscow State University in 1973, left the Soviet Union around 1987, and was a professor at Kansas State University until 2012.
