Appears to fail WP:Academic. While he may be notable in the future, currently there are not sufficient reliable sources to establish notability. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 19:52, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

He is Member of the Board of Directors of the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics - that should suffice for being notable. Mathsfreak (talk) 21:54, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. GS gives h index = 18 which should suffice for WP:Prof#C1. Did the nominator see these data? Xxanthippe (talk) 22:37, 6 May 2011 (UTC).[reply]
Keep. I agree with Xxanthippe that the citation record is good enough for a pass of #C1. I don't think the Hausdorff Center directorship is enough by itself but it strengthens the case. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:24, 7 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Nomination withdrawn. I had checked using Web of Science and had inadvertently used the social science index instead of the science index. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 02:16, 8 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Strange that he should be "Vice President of the Vice Chairman of the Collaborative Research Center". What kind of vice is that, anyway? BTW, is he a descendent of the Sturm of Sturm-Liouville? If so that would be worth mentioning. Richard Gill (talk) 16:29, 8 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
