She was known for her work on partial differential equations (especially Hilbert's nineteenth problem) and fluid dynamics.[1] She provided the first rigorous proofs of the convergence of a finite difference method for the Navier–Stokes equations. She was a student of Ivan Petrovsky[2] and was awarded the Lomonosov Gold Medal in 2002.

The artist Gennady Ladyzhensky was her grandfather's brother, also born in this town. In 1937 her father was arrested by the NKVD and executed as an "enemy of the people". Ladyzhenskaya completed high school in 1939, but was not admitted to Leningrad University due to her father's status.[3]

Admitted to Moscow University in 1943, Ladyzhenskaya graduated in 1947 and presented her doctoral thesis in 1953. She went on to teach at the university in Leningrad and at the Steklov Institute.[3]

Ladyzhenskaya was on the shortlist for potential recipients for the 1958 Fields Medal,[4] ultimately awarded to Klaus Roth and René Thom.
