I realize this is a somewhat odd request for this forum, but there are a few mathematicians here.

Does anyone have recommendations for good math books in Russian? I'm most interested, by far, in elementary material about abstract algebra, group theory, category theory, and similar, but anything approachable by someone with "high school" math would be welcomed - including, but not limited to, relatively elementary material on linear algebra, calculus, and measure theory.

This is not what you're looking for, but...

I just started looking around a bit and entering random things in Wikipedia and all and I found this. It looks like an essay on mathematics... and it comes in parallel Ru-Fr text!

Boy, was I happy.

I hope it helps you too. :-)

This is probably more useful.

EDIT: I'm on a roll today...

EDIT2: Here is even more... Looks like an open-directory page of useful materials (books, essays, lectures) on math.

Same page, geometry

Another one # 1

Another one # 2 - some PDFs...

Volte, your pm inbox seems to be full - I tried to send you a few links and couldn't.

Fixed, sorry. I'd really appreciate it if you'd resend them.

I'm having trouble thinking of any introductory algebra books in Russian, I'll check when I get home though (most of my mathematics books are in English, ironically). As far as "anything approachable by someone with high school math," I.M.Gelfand's "Lectures on Linear Algebra" comes to mind, as well as Shilov's "Linear Algebra" (both translated by Silverman, as I recall). Gelfand also wrote "Calculus of Variations" with Fomin -- it's quite readable for a variational calculus text, but I don't know if that's something you're interested in.

Going back to Shilov, there's "Elementary Real and Complex Analysis," which I don't have, but have heard good things about. I'm about 99% sure that all of these are translations, but I have no idea if they're still in print in Russian (the first editions would've been in the 50s-60s, I'm guessing).

I'll see if I can hunt down something more algebraish once I get home.

Cool. I was looking for the Russian title of Alekseev's "Abel's Theorem in Problems and Solutions" (incidentally, a pdf is located here, excellent book, sounds like it'd be right up your alley), and came across this: http://ilib.mirror1.mccme.ru/. It appears to be legit (MCCME is the Moscow Center for Continuous Mathematical Education). The links aren't terribly well organized, but there's a lot of good stuff here.

Can't help with category theory, I'm afraid -- the only non-pop CT books I even know of are Pierce's book and CWM.

Edit: doh, didn't realize Gilgamesh had already posted the MCCME link.
