AMSI supports eminent international researchers through the scientific program and its co-sponsorship of the Australian Mathematical Society's biennial Mahler Lecturer program.
The Mahler lectures are a biennial activity organised by the Australian Mathematical Society, and supported by the Australian Mathematical Sciences Institute, in which a prominent mathematician tours Australian universities giving lectures at a variety of levels, including giving several public lectures.
In 2009 AMSI and AustMS partnered with the Clay Mathematical Institute, to combine the Mahler Lectures and the Clay Lectures into the Clay–Mahler Lecture Tour.

Mahler Lecturer 2011
Peter Sarnak, Princeton
Prof. Sarnak has made major contributions to number theory and to questions in analysis motivated by number theory. His research focuses on the theory of zeta functions and automorphic forms with applications to number theory, combinatorics, and mathematical physics. He will speak at the 55th annual meeting of AustMS and a number of member institutions.
