Untitled[edit]

This mathematician is unquestionably notable--the Euler Medal is a major award and meets WP:PROF. But it needs to be documented DGG (talk) 00:56, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Saw query on your talk page. He'd been at Ohio State, Columbus for a while in the late 70's. IIRC, first name Dijen, worked in and wrote book on Error-correcting codes, number theory and cryptography before it became a big, fashionable subject, maybe combinatorics too. Might have sat in on some of his summer lectures, but it was a long time ago.John Z (talk) 10:20, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So should it then be named to Dijen K. Ray-Chaudhuri? That was the name Ohio State used when it reference him in connection with the Euler medal. I found more about his work and scholar is full of it. I don't have time to work on it at the moment, however. _{TravellingCari}^{the Busy Bee} 12:55, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

His first name is Dijen. May be his nickname in the US. Ray-Chaudhuri is his last name. JRN08 (talk) 23:03, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
