Yakov Sinai

Yakov Grigorevich Sinai (bahasa Rusia: Я́ков Григо́рьевич Сина́й; lahir 21 September 1935 ) adalah seorang matematikawan berkebangsaan Rusia – Amerika Serikat yang dikenal atas pemikirannya mengenai sistem dinamika. Ia bersumbangsih terhadap teori metrik modern sistem dinamika dan mengaitkan bidang deterministik (dinamika) dengan sistem probabilistik (stokastik).[1] Ia juga dikenal atas pemikirannya dalam bidang fisika matematis dan teori peluang.[2] Pemikirannya turut memberikan landasan bagi kemajuan ilmu fisika modern.[1]
