The Polish Mathematical Society (Polish: Polskie Towarzystwo Matematyczne) is the main professional society of Polish mathematicians and represents Polish mathematics within the European Mathematical Society (EMS) and the International Mathematical Union (IMU).




History


The society was established in Kraków, Poland on 2 April 1919 . It was originally called the Mathematical Society in Kraków, the name was changed to the Polish Mathematical Society on 21 April 1920. It was founded by 16 mathematicians, Stanisław Zaremba, Franciszek Leja, Alfred Rosenblatt, Stefan Banach and Otto Nikodym were among them.
Ever since its foundation, the society's main activity was to bring mathematicians together by means of organizing conferences and lectures. The second main activity is the publication of its annals Annales Societatis Mathematicae Polonae, consisting of:

Series 1: Commentationes Mathematicae
Series 2: Wiadomości Matematyczne ("Mathematical News"), in Polish
Series 3: Mathematica Applicanda (formerly Matematyka Stosowana until 2012)
Series 4: Fundamenta Informaticae
Series 5: Didactica Mathematicae
Series 6: Antiquitates Mathematicae
Series 7: Delta, in Polish
The annals are also known under the Polish name Roczniki Polskiego Towarzystwa Matematycznego and under the English name Polish Mathematical Society Annals.




Stefan Banach Prize


The Polish Mathematical Society has awarded the Stefan Banach Prize to the following recipients:




International Stefan Banach Prize


The International Stefan Banach Prize (Polish: Międzynarodowa Nagroda im. Stefana Banacha) is an annual award presented by the Mathematical Society to mathematicians for best doctoral dissertations in the mathematical sciences. Its aim is to "promote and financially support the most promising young researchers" in the field of mathematics. It was founded in 2009 and is named in honour of a renowned Polish mathematician Stefan Banach (1892-1945). The laureates of the award also receive a cash prize of zl 25,000 (c.$6,500). List of laureates:

2009: Tomasz Elsner
2010: Jakub Gismatullin
2011: Łukasz Pańkowski
2012: Andras Mathe
2013: Marcin Pilipczuk
2014: Dan Petersen
2015: Joonas Ilmavirta
2016: Adam Kanigowski
2017: Anna Szymusiak
