In 2001, “Golden pen” media award,

In 2006, “Glory” order,

In 2011, by the decision of the President of Dagestan Republic Magamedsalam Magamedov was rewarded with honorary title “Honoured scientist of Dagestan Republic” for his gifts in development of scientific relations between Dagestan and Azerbaijan Republics.

Main scientific results

A unique method for proving the Pontryagin principle, as well as second order necessary and sufficient conditions for a wide class of optimal control problems with various constraints was elaborated. The suggested method allows to overcome some principal difficulties arising at application of the known methods. Availability of delays in controls that a priori are not supposed to be commensurable, absence of a priori supposition on normality of the extremal under investigation, existence of phase restraints, undifferentiable time dependence of right sides of the equations whose end moment is not supposed to be fixed, are among such difficulties. New optimality conditions of second order were obtained for singular controls in the systems with delays. New stronger necessary optimality conditions of first and second order were obtained for a wider class of optimal control problems in discrete systems.

Pedagogical activity

In 1973-1998 gave lectures at mechanics mathematics faculty of BSU on analytic geometry, differential faculty of BSU on analytic geometry, differential geometry and mathematical methods of optimal control. At the same time he has given lectures at specialty courses on optimal control and conducted seminars, supervised diploma works of students.

M. Mardanov is the author of the following textbooks for schools:

  1. “Mathematics” for VI class
  2. “Geometry” for VII, VIII, IX, X, XI classes
  3. “Algebra” for VII, VIII, IX classes
  4. “Origin of Algebra and Analysis” for X, XI classes

Political activity

To 2013 a member of the administrative board of Yeni Azerbaijan party.
