Nikolai Ivanovich Lobachevski was a Russian mathematician (1792-1856) who (with Janos Bolyai) laid the foundations of non-Euclidean geometry, and was rector of the University of Kazan.

 

Already famous as a mathematician, he was promoted to 'sort of famous' by the song "Lobachevsky", which is about academic plagiarism, and was written and performed by Tom Lehrer. The song doesn't have anything to do with Lobachevski, except for using his name. As far as I am aware there is no contention that Lobachevski was a plagiarist.
