Winners of the De Morgan Medal of the LMS

The De Morgan Medal, the London Mathematical Society's premier award, is awarded every third year (in years numbered by a multiple of 3), in memory of Professor A De Morgan, the Society's first President.

The De Morgan Medal for year n can only be awarded to a mathematician who is normally resident in the United Kingdom on 1st January of year n.

The only grounds for the award of the Medal are the candidate's contributions to mathematics.
