The Alexanderson Award is given annually by the American Institute of Mathematics.
The award was instituted in 2018. It honors a notable paper resulting from an AIM activity (workshop, research community, or SQuaRE).
Motivation
The award was conceived of by John Fry in order to honor Gerald L. Alexanderson, Professor at Santa Clara University and founding chair of AIM's board of trustees.
Prize
Winners of the Alexanderson Award are given a medal, a cash prize and a trip to Bock Cay in the Bahamas.
