Brief bibliography of works of Alexander Alexeevich Potapov (books and chapters in books)

Background. The article contains the brief bibliography of works of a major Russian scientist – radiophysicist Alexander Alexeevich Potapov who made a great contribution into development of fundamental and applied investigations in the field of radar, propagation and scattering of radio waves, signal processing, fractal and texture analysis, fractional operators, scaling and dynamic chaos. Aim. The aim is the presentation of main publications and works of A.A. Potapov. Methods. A.A. Potapov created a widely known in the world the Russian scientific school of fractal methods. A.A. Potapov and his disciples proposed a new local dispersion method of measurement of fractal dimension and corresponding fractal signatures of signals, images and wave fields. A.A. Potapov created a new method of modern radar – fractal-scaling or scale – invariant radar. Results. Investigations carried out by A.A. Potapov are a priority in the world and are the basis for development and practical application of fractal-scaling and texture methods of modern radio physics and radar. Results obtained by A.A. Potapov and disciples are perspective to solve modern problems of radio physics, radio engineering, radar, communication, photonics, artificial intelligence and control. In the beginning of May 2024 A.A, Potapov formed a concept or a paradigm «Multi-profile radio». The paradigm is based on the fundamentally new approach to joint use of physical properties of electromagnetic waves in a wide frequency range and versatility of topology of fractal sets. Previously in 2022 – 2024 there was a cycle of works in Russia and China on possibility and necessity of unification of roadmaps «Fractals», «Photonics» and «Artificial intelligence» for end-to-end technologies. The final purpose is fundamentally new architecture of radio systems and radio channels. «Smart» or Intelligent radio environment is a wireless environment that turns into intellectual reconfigurable space and plays an active role in transmission and processing of information and makes a more reliable exchange between the transmitters and the receivers. The concept of «Smart» radio environments is directed to create a distributed intelligent platform of wireless connection, probing and calculations that connects physical and digital worlds. Conclusion. Broad erudition, work capacity, purposefulness brought to A.A. Potapov deserved authority and fame in the world scientific community.
