He was a visiting professor or visiting scholar of Moscow, California, Genova, Frie University of
Berlin, North Carolina, British Columbia, York, Bielefeld an invited, speaker in the International

He has developed an effective method of cumulams and their analogues for obtaining theorems of
large deviations not only in the Gaussian but also in the Poisson and other approximations with their
application in statistics and the non-commutative probability theory. He has also developed the
method of logarithmic derivatives of characteristic functions in limit theorems and asymptotic
expansions for dependent random variables (especially that related to a Markov chain). He was a
scientific advisor of over 30 postgraduate students.
