Journal overview: This journal is devoted to the publication of research in all areas of pure and applied mathematics. Manuscripts accepted for publication are similar in nature to those published in Transactions of the Americal Mathematical Society and meet the same editorial requirements. To be accepted by the editorial board, manuscripts must be correct, new, and significant. Further, they must be well written and of interest to a substantial number of mathematicians. Papers appearing in Memoirs are generally at least 80 and not more than 200 published pages in length. Papers less than 80 or more than 200 published pages require the approval of the Managing Editor of the Transactions/Memoirs Editorial Board. Each number contains either a single monograph or a group of related papers. Printed format.

Submission information: Information can be found on the journal's Submission for Peer Review page.

This consent does not extend to other kinds of copying for general distribution, for advertising or promotional purposes, or for resale. Requests for permission for commercial use of material should be addressed to the Acquisitions Department, American Mathematical Society, 201 Charles Street, Providence, RI 02904-2294 USA. Requests can also be made by email to reprint-permission@ams.org.

Excluded from these provisions is material in articles for which the author holds copyright. In such cases, requests for permission to use or reprint should be addressed directly to the author(s). Copyright ownership is indicated on the copyright page of each number.

Subscriptions: Subscriptions to this journal can be obtained through the AMS Bookstore. Subscriptions and orders can also be addressed to the American Mathematical Society, P.O. Box 845904, Boston, MA 02284-5904 USA. All orders must be accompanied by payment.

Backlog information: As of of November 30, 2007, the backlog for this journal was approximately 14 volumes. This estimate is the result of dividing the number of manuscripts for this journal in the Providence office that have not yet gone to the printer on the above date by the average number of monographs per volume over the previous twelve months, reduced by the number of volumes published in four months (the time necessary for processing a typical volume).

Inquiries: Any inquiries concerning a paper that has been accepted for publication should be sent to memo-query@ams.org or directly to the Electronic PrePress Department, American Mathematical Society, 201 Charles Street, Providence, RI 02904-2294 USA.
