Dec 13, 2016 at 7:35 comment added Anthony Quas Three things: 1) Some of the Russian journals were translated at some times. I'm not sure about that one at that time; 2) if this is a standard fact in your field, it is quite likely that some textbook will have include a proof of Suleimanova's theorem; 3) Some of the Russian journals from that era were just for statements of results, with proofs to be found elsewhere. The fact that the paper in question is a 3 page paper suggests that this is the case here.

Dec 13, 2016 at 6:47 comment added Jeremy Lin The translation option sounds so feasible that I believe it would have been done by now, @RodrigodeAzevedo. Especially since the paper is cited so often. Anyway, thanks so much for your time and help. Have a great night :)
Dec 13, 2016 at 6:45 comment added Jeremy Lin Ah, I see @RodrigodeAzevedo. That is weird. So everyone who wrote papers that cite his work is just blindly accepting that the results were indeed proved by Suleimanova. Is this a pretty common practice? I'm new to research, so I definitely find this to be a bit strange.
Dec 13, 2016 at 6:39 comment added Rodrigo de Azevedo Found nothing on mathnet.ru I guess the only option left is to find a dusty paper copy of it in some library and pay someone to translate it to English. I do not think those citing the paper in recent years have read it. They cite it because others have cited it.
Dec 13, 2016 at 6:34 comment added Jeremy Lin Also, thanks for the edits to refer Suleimanova as female, @RodrigodeAzevedo.
Dec 13, 2016 at 6:32 comment added Jeremy Lin Right @RodrigodeAzevedo. How should I proceed with finding this paper in English? Many, many papers (in English) have cited this work by Suleimanova -- are people just blindly citing the work without actually even reading it?
Dec 13, 2016 at 6:30 comment added Rodrigo de Azevedo The reference in Russian is Сулейманова X., Стохастические матрицы с вещественными собственными значениями, Докл. АН СССР. 1949. - V. 66.-Р. 343-345.

Dec 13, 2016 at 6:29 comment added Jeremy Lin Also this citation @RodrigodeAzevedo K. R. Suleimanova, “Stochastic Matrices with Real Eigenvalues,” Soviet Mathematics Doklady, Vol. 66, 1949, pp. 343-345. ... which I believe would be in Russian.
Dec 13, 2016 at 6:25 comment added Jeremy Lin Specifically, a paper I just looked through cites it as: [13] H. R. Sule˘ımanova. Stochastic matrices with real characteristic numbers. Doklady Akad. Nauk SSSR (N.S.), 66:343–345, 1949. @RodrigodeAzevedo.
Dec 13, 2016 at 6:23 comment added Jeremy Lin Yes, @RodrigodeAzevedo :) Did you find it?

Dec 13, 2016 at 6:15 comment added Rodrigo de Azevedo Are you referring to Suleimanova's "Stochastic matrices with real eigenvalues" (1949)?
Dec 13, 2016 at 6:14 comment added Anthony Quas If the name ends in "ova" then it's a she.
