The Swedish Mathematical Society (Swedish: Svenska Matematikersamfundet, SMS) is a mathematical society founded in Sweden in 1950. It is a member of the European Mathematical Society and is recognised by the International Mathematics Union.[1][2]

The Swedish Mathematical Society organises two member meetings per year, awards the Wallenberg Prize annually, and organises conferences and scientific meetings with other mathematical societies.[3] It publishes a bulletin three times a year.[3] The logo of the SMS contains the third iteration of the Koch snowflake,[4] which was first described by Swedish mathematician Helge von Koch in 1904.[5]
