George Szekeres Medal

The George Szekeres Medal is awarded by the Australian Mathematical Society for outstanding research contributions over a fifteen-year period. This award, established in 2001, was given biennially in even-numbered years until 2021 and has since been given annually, for work that has been carried out primarily in Australia ^[1]

This medal commemorates the work of the late George Szekeres, FAA, for his achievements in number theory, combinatorics, analysis, and relativity.^[1]
