Notes
  • Competed for Sweden at IMO 1977 in Belgrade, scoring 3+3+0+6+1+7 = 20 points across the six problems, ranked 61= overall for a bronze medal.
  • Decades later he is a mathematics instructor in the Algebra and Geometry division at Chalmers University of Technology, indicating the olympiad mathematics background became a teaching career in Gothenburg.
  • Search for the name alongside 'Chalmers' and 'olympiad' surfaces both the Chalmers staff page and the IMO 1977 record in the same result set, a strong cross-signal that the Chalmers instructor is the 1977 olympiad competitor.
  • Registered first (registrationOrder 1) on the 1977 Swedish IMO team, ahead of teammates Martin Nilsson and Leif Sehlstrom.
