Information for Authors of Accepted Papers

» Book Reviews
Book Reviews are accepted for publication by invitation only. Unsolicited manuscripts will not be accepted. The inviting editor will provide instructions about initial submission.

The first page of solicited manuscripts must include the title of the book being reviewed; the name(s) of author(s); publisher; city of publication; year of publication; number of pages, including front matter; price if known; and ISBN.  There should also be a footnote with the 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification representing the primary and secondary subjects of the book under review.  The classifications are accessible from

» Bulletin Articles
Bulletin Articles may be of two types: (1) reasonably broad expository surveys of a currently active area of mathematical research and (2) reports on a recent accomplishment in mathematical research.

The first page must contain a descriptive title that is short but informative; useless or vague phrases such as "some remarks about" or "concerning" should be avoided.

The abstract should be a brief technical description of the new material.

Included with the footnotes to the paper should be the 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification representing the primary and secondary subjects of the article. The classifications are accessible from

http://www.ams.org/msc

The Mathematics Subject Classification footnote may be followed by a list of key words and phrases describing the subject matter of the article and taken from it. 

Journal abbreviations used in bibliographies are accessible from

At the time of submission, authors should indicate if the paper has been prepared using AMS-LaTeX or AMS-TeX, though AMS-LaTeX is strongly preferred.

The final version of the electronic manuscript should be sent to the Providence office immediately after the paper has been accepted for publication.  The final file should also be sent by email to both bulletin@math.uic.edu and susan@math.northwestern.edu.
