russische Mathematikerin (1850–1891)
Sofia Kovalevskaya was a Russian mathematician of the 19th century who made significant contributions to mathematics during a time when women had very limited access to higher education.

Sofja Wassiljewna Kowalewskaja (russisch Софья Васильевна Ковалевская, wiss. Transliteration Sof'ja Vasil'evna Kovalevskaja; * 3. Januarjul. / 15. Januar 1850greg. in Moskau; † 29. Januarjul. / 10. Februar 1891greg. in Stockholm) war eine russische Mathematikerin. Im Jahr 1884 wurde sie an der Universität Stockholm die weltweit erste Professorin für Mathematik, die selbst Vorlesungen hielt. Kowalewskaja leistete nicht nur in der Mathematik Bedeutendes, sondern hatte auch mit ihren 1889 erstmals erschienenen Kindheitserinnerungen großen Erfolg. Politisch war sie ebenfalls aktiv und setzte sich für das Recht aller Frauen auf Ausbildung ein. Sie ist bekannt für Arbeiten in der Mechanik (Kreiseltheorie) und zu partiellen Differentialgleichungen (Satz von Cauchy-Kowalewskaja).
