Ludwig Faddeev

From Gian Francesco Giudice
Theoretical Physics Department, CERN

It is with great sadness that I announce the passing of Ludwig Faddeev. 
He will always be remembered for his great contributions to quantum field theory, 
from the work with Popov on quantisation of non-abelian gauge theories, 
to quantum solitons and quantum integrable systems. His extraordinary 
achievements have been recognised by numerous prizes, including 
the Dannie Heineman Prize, the ICTP Dirac Medal, the Henri Poincare Prize, 
Shaw Prize, Lomonosov Medal, and the Max Planck Medal.
