The Israel Mathematical Union (IMU) (Hebrew: הַאִיגּוּד הַיִשְׂרְאֵלִי לְמָתֶמָטִיקָה) is an association of professional mathematicians in Israel. It is a member of the European Mathematical Society and the International Council for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, and has reciprocity membership agreements with the American Mathematical Society and the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics.[1]
The Union was founded on 2 March 1953 and held its first meeting with eleven short lectures on 28 September of that year.[2] Early members included Binyamin Amirà, Michael Fekete, and Abraham Fraenkel, who represented the Union at the 1954 International Congress of Mathematicians in Amsterdam, as well as Shmuel Agmon, Jacob Levitzki, and Dov Jarden.[2]
