Vitaly Alexandrovich Chekhov (Russian: Виталий Александрович Чеховер) (born December 22, 1908 in Saint Petersburg; † February 11, 1965 there at the age of 56 in Leningrad) was a Soviet chess player, theorist and composer.


Chekhov received the title of International Master of Tournament Chess at the first award ceremony in 1950. In 1956 he became International Arbiter for Chess Compositions and in 1961 International Master for Chess Compositions. He was a two-time Master of Sports of the USSR, both in chess and chess composition, and the author of several chess books.

Since 1936, Chekhov has published more than 100 endgame studies, 70 of which are included in his anthology published in 1959. The system in this book shows the areas in which he worked: positional draws, systematic movement, geometric motifs, romantic themes.

At the beginning of his career as a study composer, he revised romantic studies by other authors and sought to bring them into a more economical form. He often succeeded in preserving the paradoxical idea after simplifying material-intensive positions, but this required a somewhat overloaded analysis.

He subsequently found his own style and composed a number of independent works. Between 1947 and 1965 he took part in the 1st to 7th Soviet Union Individual Chess Composition Championships.
