Medhi Askari

Medhi (Mehdi) Askari represented the Islamic Republic of Iran at the 32nd International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO 1991, Sigtuna, Sweden) as contestant IRA2. He scored 29 points (problems 4,7,3,7,7,1) and won a Bronze medal; the Iranian team placed 8th of 55 countries. No later public record of this specific individual - education, career, or current employment - could be verified. The many "Mehdi Askari" figures online (an Amirkabir University functional-analysis PhD, materials/corrosion engineers, tech researchers) carry no IMO or 1991-era signal and could not be linked to the 1991 IMO contestant without corroboration.

Notes3

• No public link connects this 1991 IMO contestant to any later identity; the prominent online 'Mehdi Askari' namesakes (Amirkabir PhD 2020, materials engineers, tech researchers) show no IMO or 1991-era trace, so equating them would be a guess.

• Persian sources (Roshd, sampadia) independently confirm 'Mehdi Askari' won Bronze for Iran at IMO 1991, corroborating the 'Medhi Askari' spelling on the official IMO record.Jul 1991
