The Mathematical Intelligencer welcomes submissions from within and without the international mathematical community. Articles may feature new results, surveys of recent work in a particular field, profiles of mathematicians past or present, and so on: the scope is wide.
We welcome controversy; this is an international forum for issues on which mathematicians disagree. But whatever their subject, all articles should be written in a relaxed, engaging style, and should be accessible to the entire community, irrespective of specialty. Articles are peer-reviewed. Authors need not feel confined to non-fiction: we will consider humor, poetry, fiction, and art forms not yet invented.
The length of an article should be appropriate to the subject matter. We do not impose any restrictions on article length; if we think your manuscript is too long or too short, we will tell you. Please submit your manuscript electronically -- and on line if you can at
http://tmin.edmgr.com. Illustrations must be publication quality.
Edmgr stands for "Editorial Manager", the on-line submission program. Editorial Manager can handle source files written in Word, Latex, and most other programs (note: it will not accept PDF submissions). You will find the submission process straightforward and user-friendly if you keep these few points in mind:
- If you use Latex, please keep the code simple. And please remember to upload all the files that your paper calls on; otherwise Editorial Manager will not be able to compile it.
- Editorial Manager cannot handle subdirectories at present. If you submit all your files together in a .zip file, make sure the files are not in subdirectories (and that your source
code does not call on files in subdirectories!)
- Editorial Manager will build a .pdf file from your source file for you to view before you confirm your submission. Its program calls these .fdf files, but do not be confused by that. If you wish to download the file to your own computer, you can relabel it .pdf on your hard drive and view it in the usual way.
Be sure to include your contact information: name, email address, and regular mail address in your source file.
We hope you'll be pleased with the efficiency and transparency of the on-line submission process. Please let us know if you run into any problems.
