In what sense is this mathematician "Austrian"

Latest comment: 11 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The article states that Dr. Friedman "is an American and Austrian mathematician."

Since he works in Austria, it is clear that he lives there. But in what sense is he "Austrian"? By citizenship? By birth? Or what?Daqu (talk) 05:16, 22 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

"Known for" field in infobox

Is listing the fields in which he works an appropriate use of the "known for" field? For example, on the page for Jeff Paris, all listed entries are things which he has personally worked in the creation of, as opposed to fields in which he worked such as mathematical logic.
