Leaning keep. Not my area but he holds a named chair and Google Scholar profile shows four works with strong citations (227,212,190,127), suggesting the subject meets WP:PROF.

I note that
David Eppstein removed a notability tag in July 2020 with an edit summary stating "rm notability tag; obvious pass of WP:PROF#C5".

Keep. An endowed chair at a major university is a pass of
WP:PROF#C5, even in a business school that finds endowments for many of its full professors. With four publications in triple-digit citation counts on Google Scholar, he also has a case for #C1. I trimmed some promotional wording surrounding his textbook coauthorship; I don't think it is good enough for
WP:AUTHOR or
WP:PROF#C4 because he was only added as a coauthor in the 7th edition, after the book had already become well-established. The material about the De Soto Initiative is also a little promotional in its wording but
WP:DINC. —

Keep - while virtually unsourced currently (the single source is now dead, but was active back in 2020),
David Eppstein is spot on regarding meeting
WP:NPROF, which is why it passed NPP back in 2020.
