Lev Abramovich Polugaevsky (Russian: Лев Абрамович Полугаевский; 20 November 1934 – 30 August 1995) was an International Grandmaster of chess and frequent contender for the world chess championship although he never achieved that title. He was one of the strongest players in the world from the late 1960s until the early 1980s as well as a distinguished author and opening theorist whose contributions in this field remain important to the present day.
