Yakov Grigorevich Sinai (bahasa Rusia: Я́ков Григо́рьевич Сина́й; lahir 21 September 1935) adalah seorang matematikawan berkebangsaan Rusia–Amerika Serikat yang dikenal atas pemikirannya mengenai sistem dinamika. Ia bersumbangsih terhadap teori metrik modern sistem dinamika dan mengaitkan bidang deterministik (dinamika) dengan sistem probabilistik (stokastik).[1] Ia juga dikenal atas pemikirannya dalam bidang fisika matematis dan teori peluang.[2] Pemikirannya turut memberikan landasan bagi kemajuan ilmu fisika modern.[1]
Sinai telah menerima sejumlah penghargaan, termasuk Penghargaan Nemmers, Penghargaan Wolf, dan Penghargaan Abel.
