• Keep. Pure mathematics is a low-citation field, so [https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=QSauChgAAAAJ the citation record doesn't tell us much], but I think the EMS Prize is enough for WP:PROF#C2 (it's about major national or international-level prizes, and this one is international and major). For instance our article European Mathematical Society lists many EMS Prize winners who have gone on to win the Fields medal, the top award in mathematics. Additionally speaking at the ICM is a significant honor, perhaps not enough by itself but also indicative of importance as a mathematician. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:51, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
• Keep. I know that the following argument is invalid, but here goes, anyway: I've heard of the guy, and skimmed things that others have written about stuff he's discovered, so surely he can't be that obscure or non-notable. 67.198.37.16 (talk) 20:46, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
• Keep I agree with David Eppstein that invited participation at ICM plus a prize by a major society (I wouldn't call the EMS congress "non-notable") is largely enough for inclusion in Wikipedia. Similarly to the opinion voiced by 67.198.37.16 I know of the guy's name through seeing it on many seminar or conference posters and presentations though I don't work in the field (as they said this is not a valid argument for inclusion but certainly it points to there being more correctly sourced stuff to add later to the article: since I think notability is already established I think this is a point that deserves being made). jraimbau (talk) 21:16, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
• Comment. One should be careful with "I remember hearing his name" arguments. Kuznetsov is not that uncommon a name; Yu. A. Kuznetsov and maybe N. G. Kuznetsov are both mathematicians with more established reputations than this one. So one should be careful to make sure that one is rememberlng the correct Kuznetsov. But of course the possible notability of those other people is irrelevant to whether this one is notable enough. —David Eppstein (talk) 04:32, 29 August 2016 (UTC)
• Keep per European Mathematical Society prize and mentions / citations I'm seeing in [https://www.google.com/#q=%22Alexander+Kuznetsov%22+mathematics&tbm=bks Google books]. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:20, 29 August 2016 (UTC)
