Ha Huy Minh (Hà Huy Minh) is a Vietnamese mathematician who, as a high-school student at THPT Chuyên Khoa học Tự nhiên (the gifted high school of VNU University of Science, Hanoi), represented Vietnam at the 30th International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO 1989, Braunschweig, West Germany) and won a bronze medal with 27/42 points. He comes from a noted Hanoi mathematics family: his father is GS.TSKH Hà Huy Khoái, a complex-analysis researcher and former director of the Institute of Mathematics of Vietnam (2001-2007), and his cousin Hà Huy Tài won silver at IMO 1991. Vietnamese sources refer to him as 'Tiến sỹ Hà Huy Minh' (Dr. Ha Huy Minh), indicating he went on to earn a doctorate.

- IMO 1989 bronze with 27/42 (P1 6, P2 6, P3 1, P4 7, P5 7, P6 0) on a Vietnam team that finished 9th of 50; a strong but not top-of-team result, and the basis of his public identity.Jul 1989
- Son of GS.TSKH Hà Huy Khoái, a complex-analysis mathematician who directed Vietnam's Institute of Mathematics 2001-2007; the family lineage explains why his IMO result is routinely cited in Vietnamese profiles of his father.Apr 2026
- Vietnamese sources call him 'Tiến sỹ (Dr.) Hà Huy Minh', which implies a completed doctorate — the main public signal of his post-IMO career, though no institution or field is documented.
- Listed on the IMO 1989 Vietnam roster alongside Ngô Bảo Châu, Bùi Hải Hưng, Trần Trọng Thắng, Đoàn Hồng Nghĩa and Đinh Tiến Cường — the same cohort that produced Fields medalist Ngô Bảo Châu.Jul 2017
- Part of a rare 'IMO family': cousin Hà Huy Tài won silver at IMO 1991 and uncle Hà Huy Bảng competed at IMO 1976, making the Hà Huy household one of Vietnam's most decorated olympiad families.Jul 2014
- Attended THPT Chuyên Khoa học Tự nhiên (VNU University of Science gifted high school), Hanoi — the school whose Wikipedia record lists his 1989 bronze.Jan 2024
