Mathematics

Hamlet Isakhanli (G.A. Isaev, or H.A. Isayev in mathematical works) finished high school with a gold medal and was admitted to the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of Azerbaijan State University (present-day Baku State University, BSU) in 1965. He graduated from BSU in 1970 with honors. In the same year, he was admitted to the postgraduate research course (aspirantura) at the Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics, Azerbaijan Academy of Sciences, Baku, Azerbaijan, and sent to Lomonosov Moscow State University for his graduate education and research. In 1973, he defended his dissertation “On Problems of Spectral Theory of Operator Pencils” and received the Ph.D. (Kandidat nauk) degree in Physical-Mathematical sciences.

From 1973 to 1983, he carried out research in mathematics in Moscow and Baku at Moscow State University, the Steklov Institute of Mathematics of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, the Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics of the Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences, then Azerbaijan State University. During this period, he lectured occasionally. Later he also worked as professor at Azerbaijan State Institute of Oil and Chemistry (currently Azerbaijan State Oil Academy) and chaired the department of mathematics in the Baku campus of the Leningrad Institute of Economics and Finance.

Isakhanli's articles were published in leading academic periodicals and transactions in the Soviet Union, the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada and Germany, which brought him international recognition. In 1983, Hamlet Isakhanli defended his second doctoral dissertation (leading to a D.S. - Doctor of Science degree) “On Problems of Multiparameter Spectral Theory” at the V.I. Steklov Institute of Mathematics, Moscow. He received the degree of Doctor of Physical-Mathematical Sciences, and was later awarded the title of Professor by the Soviet Higher Attestation Committee.[2][3] [4] [5]

Hamlet Isakhanli is recognised as a scholar of great research capacity in mathematics. He has performed research in various areas of mathematics and the applied sciences such as non-self-adjoint operator theory, multiparameter spectral theory, the theory of joint spectra, differential equations, numerical ranges, and mathematical models of economy. He is considered one of the founders of the modern Multiparameter Spectral Theory. He was the first Soviet mathematician to carry out scientific research in this field of study, which has its origin in mathematical physics.

Isakhanli was not only a representative of the famous Moscow mathematics school, but his background also reflects achievements in the scientific schools of the United States, United Kingdom, Germany and Canada. During the times of the Soviet “Iron Curtain,” in spite of some difficulties, he viewed the West not only from a distance, but also as a visiting professor. Scientific - research centers, academies and universities in Europe, the Americas and Asia continuously invited him to their institutions to deliver lectures, undertake joint research, and speak at international conferences. He in turn invited foreign scholars to Moscow and Baku to deliver lectures for furthering good relations between the East and the West. He achieved the establishment of an international academic network even in those Soviet times.[6][7]

His achievements in the field of mathematics were highly praised by prominent mathematicians, particularly by members of the Soviet Academy of Sciences as N.N.Bogolyubov, V.S.Vladimirov and S.M. Nikolskiy, Lenin Prize winners B.M. Levitan and V.B. Lidskiy, and by well-known mathematicians A. G. Kostyuchenko, A.A. Dezin, and V.A. Sadovnichiy (currently rector of Lomonosov Moscow State University), professor F.Atkinson (University of Toronto), professor P.J.Browne (University of Calgary), and other scholars. His published works are included in “The List of Best Scientific Works of the Year” by the Presidium (an Executive Committee) of the Soviet Academy of Sciences.[2][8]

Research in humanities and social studies, creative writings

Hamlet Isakhanli is a scholar who has carried out research and produced significant results in various fields of sciences and arts, particularly outside of mathematics. Overall, he has written hundreds of articles, monographs, and textbooks in the philosophy of history, history of science, education and culture; education policy; theory and history of translation; language and literature; and in many other areas.

The book In Search of Khazar by Hamlet Isakhanli has become very popular in Azerbaijan and throughout the international community. His storytelling style connected with description of political, cultural, personal and psychological situations of the process of establishment of a new institution of higher education, and well-documented analyses of events of the time, make this a valuable book to read. “The realities of events associated with the establishment and development of Khazar University have left indelible traces in my memory. I intend to pass these events to you in their entirety and in all sincerity,” says the author in the introductory note to the book.[9]

His research and writings on translation problems, on language policy, and on lexicography are worthy of esteem. A large article entitled “Translating Poetry and Cross-cultural Communication: In Search of Beauty and Harmony Within Limited Borders” devoted to the history and analyses of East-West communication through the translation highway, to problems of translation from and into Azerbaijani, and to problems of translating poetry, is a “must, for constant reference” according to one expert viewpoint.[10][11]

Hamlet Isakhanli is one of the authors and co-editor of the Khazar English-Azerbaijani Comprehensive Dictionary in six volumes. This work has been completed for the most part; its first three volumes have already been published.[12] This dictionary is, without a doubt, one of the monumental achievements of the Azerbaijani culture. The textbook “The Azerbaijani Language" for foreigners, written by Hamlet Isakhanli with two co-authors, is based on the communicative approach and is a handbook to which foreigners and teachers may have recourse.[13]

Isakhanli an influential scholar, liberal intellectual, educator, writer and public speaker in the fields of history of science, philosophy and culture; philosophy of history; theory and history of literature, languages; translation studies; education; education policy; and history/philosophy of education. He has written books, numerous articles, policy papers and reports in addition to abundant interviews in TV, radio, newspapers, magazines, and bulletins.

In addition, he translated poetry from English, Russian and French into Azerbaijani, particularly the poems of George Gordon Byron, W. Blake, Robert Herrick, and Gérard de Nerval, Vasily Zhukovsky, Evgeny Baratynsky, Fyodor Tyutchev, Afanasy Fet, Sergei Yesenin, Nikolay Gumilev, Anna Akhmatova, and Alla Akhundova.[35][36]

Poetry and music

Hamlet Isakhanli's poems are melodic; for this reason his poems have attracted Azerbaijani composers' attention. Many of his lyric poems have been used for composing songs and musical spectacles.[3][4]

Prominent national composers, the late Ramiz Mustafayev and the late Vasif Adigozalov, composed music - a hymn based on his poem My Khazar University; Ramiz Mustafayev – on the poem In Search of my Khazar; Vagif Garayzadeh - on the poem Parting; Lutfiyar Imanov – on the poem Life will be so easy; Naila Isayeva - on poems I just fell in love with you, It is beautiful, Poppy, Lily, Wind and a lassie, I want to stay alone, Come soon, and My world; Tahir Akber -on four poems, Elza Seyidcahan - on the poems I couldn’t understand this world and Baku, Jahangir Zulfugarov – on the poem Where we meet, Dilara Gulamova - on the poems An old question, Magical night, Clouds lag behind childhood, and musical spectacle “The life path is just a moment” based on a series of Hamlet Isakhanli's philosophical poems. His entire epic-lyric poem “Pilgrimage” was set to music by composer Javanshir Guliyev, who also composed eleven songs on the lyric by Hamlet Isakhanli. All these songs and musical spectacles are sung and performed by master-singers Lutfiyar Imanov, Flora Karimova, Brilliant Dadashova, Azer Zeynalov, Ilgar Muradov, Rashida Behbudova, Manana Japaridze, Gulyanaq Memmedova, Elza Seyidcahan, Samir Jafarov, Beture Huseynova, Anar Shushali, Yusif Savalan, Mehseti Cabbarova, Fadaya Lachin, Azerbaijani State Symphony Orchestra and Choir, the "Savalan," "Sheron" and "Kristal" bands and others. Khanandas singing mugham such as Arif Babayev, Alim Qasimov, Nazakat Teymurova, Zabit Nabizadeh, and Zakir Aliyev also have used Hamlet Isakhanli’s poems while singing.

Reforms in education

Besides conducting his research and delivering lectures abroad during the Soviet Period, Hamlet Isakhanli was also interested in studying different aspects of educational organizations in the West. In the late 1980s, Isakhanli tried to explain to the public and to the government the meaning of and reasons for the crisis that was occurring in the Soviet and Azerbaijani Higher Education System. He showed ways to overcome the crisis and called for substantial reforms through his articles published in Azerbaijani and Russian newspapers and in speeches made on the radio and TV.[37][38]

New ideas started to emerge and be implemented in a country that was living through political and economic crisis and war. Hamlet Isakhanli played an important role in that development. On the one hand, he noted the necessity for step-by-step reforms in the entire education system; on the other hand, he emphasized the prospect of establishing new types of higher education institutions that would meet the demands of the new, rapidly changing and globalized world. In his opinion, these new higher education institutions might benefit to some degree from US models of higher education (particularly in terms of curriculum, management, quality of teaching and research, university-industry relations, the knowledge economy and innovation, an interactive student-centered system based on credit accumulation, programs leading to Bachelors, Masters and PhD degrees, extensive international relations, etc.), and they would play an important role not only in education and research, but also in the overall awareness and democratization of society as a whole.[2][9]

Khazar University (foundation and principles)

In addition to thinking and writing about means for educational reform, Hamlet Isakhanli decided to establish a university. In this way he aimed to contribute to the process of implementing his own proposed reforms through his actions. As an outcome of these activities, official preparatory efforts by the Resolution of the Cabinet (Council) of Ministers of the Republic of (then Soviet!) Azerbaijan were carried out (dated on December 20, 1990). Khazar University (then called Azerbaijan University of the English Language) was subsequently created by a Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers dated March 18, 1991. The university, which began with seven teachers and 19 students, was the first private (not for profit) university established in Azerbaijan and one of the first officially established in the present-day post-Soviet area[9][39]

Due to its Western-type curricula and study programs, adoption of a flexible credit accumulation system and student-centered model of education, application of modern methods of management, establishment of broad and effective international relations, recruitment of high-quality local and foreign specialists, fighting against corruption in education, and generally speaking, provision of high-quality education under the direction of Hamlet Isakhanli, Khazar University became famous as one of the leading universities not only in Azerbaijan, but also in the wider geographical region covering the former Soviet area, particularly the Caucasus and Central Asia, and also the Middle East.[40][41]

Hamlet Isakhanli decided to use English as a main language of instruction at Khazar. The reasons for this include providing ways to facilitate the use of books and other educational and research resources published in the West, for student exchange programs, for inviting visiting professors; and, in general, for breaking away from inertia and encouraging innovative thinking.

The innovative endeavors of Hamlet Isakhanli and Khazar University played an important role in the introduction and successful application of the two-cycled (Bachelor, Master) system and in methodology for evaluation in the higher education system of Azerbaijan, which was later envisaged in the Bologna Process on the creation of the European Higher Education Area. He was one of the main initiators in joining Azerbaijan to the Bologna Process in 2005.[9][15]

Dunya School and Training Center(foundation)

Dunya School, established by Hamlet Isakhanli in 1998 and affiliated with Khazar University, providing education at the preschool, primary, secondary and high school levels, is a successful and highly sought-after school where schoolchildren receive bilingual education in the Azerbaijani and English.[42]

Recently (January 16, 2009) Dunya School gained an international status through accreditation by International Baccalaureate Organization - IBO. Namely, Dunya School as an IB World School now offers the IB Diploma Program to its students in the last two years of high school.[43]

Hamlet Isakhanli not only put his ideas into practice in the higher education system; he is also trying to create a model for pre-university education that would be able to compete internationally. Thus he is realizing and providing the idea of lifelong education by building a network of education institutions from early childhood till PhD and professorship.

As part of the goal of providing lifelong education, Isakhanli also established the Khazar University Training Center which provides courses in foreign languages, all academic fields, standardized examination preparation, and musical instruments for students of all ages.

Public work and leadership

Hamlet Isakhanli is engaged within two worlds: mathematics and natural sciences along with the humanities and social sciences.

Isakhanli is recognized as a scholar, leader, and public figure among intellectuals, scientists and men of arts, as well as the international community. Hamlet Isakhanli is a member of international networks, associations, academies and boards, as well as a participant in and organizer of international projects and gatherings on different continents and various countries. He delivered plenary lectures at conferences held by UNESCO, NATO, UNDP, Council of Europe, etc. He has received honors and awards for his contribution to the development of research, education and culture. As a member of the Education Commission under the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Hamlet Isakhanli is actively participating in preparation and realization of reforms carried out in the fields of research, development and education.

The Assembly of Science and Art (Azerbaijani: Elm və Sənət Məclisi), founded and chaired by Hamlet Isakhanli, has turned into a creative intellectual center where scholars and men of arts from diverse fields of study and creative young people come together and carry out discussions on various topics of the arts and sciences. Speeches of presenters from different countries and minutes of the discussions are published first in the Khazar Review magazine (previously Khazar View), then in separate books by Khazar University Press.[20][44][45]

His editorship includes research journals and magazines both in the sciences and humanities, transactions of conferences, textbooks and monographs, encyclopedias and dictionaries, translations from various languages into Azerbaijani and vice versa in history, mass media, poetry, novels, etc.

Scientists and researchers who have defended dissertations under his supervision now work in the USA, Europe, Russia, Israel, Turkey, Iran and in other countries.

Kin

Hamlet Isakhanli is a member of the well known Hajibayramli clan. His grandfather was a famous guerilla Isakhan Hajibayramli (1897–1930), who organized an armed rebellion against the Soviets during the collectivization period (in the late 1920s to 1930) in the territories of Georgia and Armenia. It is known from published sources as well as from archives that Stalin and Beria were troubled by the Isakhan movement and used a secret network and army against it. Isakhan exposed the Soviet Army in its weaknesses. Isakhan is retained in the memory of the old generation for his bravery and chivalry. His 100-year anniversary was celebrated in both Azerbaijan and Georgia. Hamlet's grandmother Zeynab and her children and close relatives were exiled from their home country to Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan for two years.[24]
