The first edition of this book was prepared for the 250th anniversary of Moscow University in 2005. The book presents publications of the first university newspaper “Moskovskie Vedomosti” (Moscow Gazette), published from 1756 to 1917, which contain a significant part of the history of Moscow University. In the second half of the 18th century. it was the only newspaper in Moscow. “Moskovskie Vedomosti” (Moscow Gazette) was prepared by professors and students of Moscow University, printed at the university printing house, and sold in the university bookstore. Gazetny Lane in Moscow is named so because the printing house, where the latest issues of the newspaper Moskovskie Vedomosti were distributed to subscribers, was located there at the beginning of the 19th century.

The book is addressed to everyone who is interested in the history of higher education in Russia and the history of Moscow University.

The book is based on a course of lectures delivered by the author (professor of the Department of Applied Mathematics and Computer Modeling of the Gubkin Russian State University of Oil and Gas) at the Faculty of Computational Mathematics and Cybernetics of Moscow State University, at universities and research centers in Warsaw, Berlin, Liege, Brussels, and the US. The book deals with statistical problems that are invariant under a suitable group of transformations of observed and estimated quantities, for example, the choice of the coordinate system in which these quantities are measured. For such problems, the choice of the optimal solution in the class of invariant statistical solutions is simplified. For frequently used invariant statistical models, such solutions are explicitly defined. The book gives many examples as well as some commentary on the problem of reconstructing a multidimensional function from observations.

For students and postgraduate students of universities and institutes, as well as for reference and for individuals who study or use applied mathematics in their studies.
