Russian Mathematical Surveys, unfortunately, does not provide a table of contents in the original Cyrillic, and as someone whose Russian is mostly limited to sometimes reading mathematics papers and book chapters, I won't vouch for the accuracy. I believe I can spell "Vadim" correctly, I googled "Arsenevich" in Russian, and I have Cyrillic print references for the last name.

The obituary does not list a birth year. It merely stated that Efremovich died "in his 86th year". In English, that phrase is normally interpreted literally, meaning he was 85 years old at the time. It could be Russian idiom, though, and I might have even known that long long ago.

I went with an unsophisticated transliteration for the page title, since "č" is not available, and there seemed no point in being fancy about the soft sign if the "ch" is not fancy. I'm not sure if there's a WP convention here or not.--192.35.35.34 16:39, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)
