Swedish mathematics is strong in many areas
A recent evaluation shows that Swedish mathematics is strong in many areas; including mathematical analysis with its long historical tradition, an area that for many years was the dominating field of research. More recently there has been increased activity also in the areas of algebra and geometry, with interesting applications to physics.
The report "Evaluation of Swedish research in mathematics" is funded by the Research Council and the Foundation for Strategic Research.An international committee has been invited to evaluate Swedish mathematics funded by the Swedish Research Council and the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research during the years 2002-2006.The report is available via the Research Council's publication service
