The Mittag-Leffler Institute (Swedish: Institut Mittag-Leffler) is a mathematical research institute in Sweden. Located in Djursholm, a suburb of Stockholm, it invites scholars to participate in half-year programs in specialized mathematical subjects. The Institute is run by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences on behalf of research societies representing all the Scandinavian countries. The institute focuses on hosting half-year programmes in specialised mathematical subjects, inviting scholars from around the world to collaborate in a focused, contemplative atmosphere. It houses a mathematical library with rare historical collections and continues Mittag-Leffler's vision of mathematics as an intellectual pursuit that transcends national boundaries. The institute is housed in the former villa of Mittag-Leffler, which was converted into a research facility.
