Review text

The author proposes a survey on the Birkhoff-Grothendieck theorem on the splitting of vector bundles over the Riemann sphere and related results. In an earlier version the theorem has been formulated by Dedekind and Weber. Later the Riemann-Hilbert-Birkhoff problems and the Birkhoff factorization theorem have been formulated. The Riemann-Hilbert problem asks whether every finitely generated matrix group the product of whose generators is the identity matrix is the monodromy group of a Fuchsian system on Riemann's sphere. (``Fuchsian means ``with logarithmic poles. Fuchsian systems are a particular case of regular systems, i.e. with moderate growth rate of the solutions when the poles are approached within sectors centered at them.) The author outlines the contributions of many mathematicians in this domain, such as Plemelj, Lappo-Danilevsky, Deligne, Katz, Levelt, Anosov, Bolibrukh etc.\N\NFor the entire collection see [Zbl 1562.01004].
