It contains not only research papers on the most advanced topics in the field but also some survey articles, which give a broad scope of some areas of the subject. Volumes in this series are freely available electronically 5 years post-publication. Published for the Mathematical Society of Japan by Kinokuniya, Tokyo, and distributed worldwide, except in Japan, by the AMS.
