About the journal
|
Journal of Theoretical Probability publishes high quality original papers in all areas of probability theory, including probability on semigroups, groups, vector spaces, other abstract structures, and random matrices. This multidisciplinary quarterly provides mathematicians and researchers in physics, engineering, statistics, and computer science with a peer-reviewed forum for the exchange of vital ideas in the field of theoretical probability. |

Instructions to Authors
- Manuscripts, in triplicate and in English, should be submitted to the Editor:
A. Mukherjea
Department of Mathematics
University of South Florida
Tampa, Florida 33620-5700
e-mail: arun@math.usf.edu
- Submission is a representation that the manuscript has not been published previously and is not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. A statement transferring copyright from the authors (or their employers, if they hold the copyright) to Kluwer Academic/Plenum Publishers will be required before the manuscript can be accepted for publication. The Editor will supply the necessary forms for this transfer. Such a written transfer of copyright, which previously was assumed to be implicit in the act of submitting a manuscript, is necessary under the U.S. Copyright Law in order for the publisher to carry through the dissemination of research results and reviews as widely and effectively as possible.
- Type double-spaced on one side of 8 1/2 x 11 inch white paper using generous margins on all sides, and submit the original and two copies (including, where possible, copies of all illustrations and tables). All copies must be dark, sharp, and clear. Computer-generated manuscripts must be of letter quality (not dot-matrix).
- A title page is to be provided and should include the title of the article, author‘s name (no degrees), author‘s affiliation, e-mail addresses of the authors (when available), and suggested running head. The affiliation should comprise the department, institution (usually university or company), city, and state (or nation) and should be typed as a footnote to the author‘s name. Authors, whenever possible, should include their current e-mail addresses on all copies of their manuscripts. The suggested running head should be less than 80 characters (including spaces) and should comprise the article title or an abbreviated version thereof. For office purposes, the title page should include the complete mailing address and telephone number of the one author designated to review proofs. Proofs will be e-mailed as PDF attachments.
- An abstract is to be provided, preferably no longer than 100-150 words.
- A list of 4-5 key words is to be provided directly below the abstract. Key words should express the precise content of the manuscript, as they are used for indexing purposes.
- All sections should be numbered with Arabic numerals (such as 1. INTRODUCTION). Subsections should be identified with section and subsection numbers (such as 6.1. Second-Value Subheading). If applicable, an independent single-number system (one for each category) should be used to label all theorems, lemmas, propositions, corollaries, definitions, remarks, examples, etc. The label (such as Theorem 4) should be typed with paragraph indentation, followed by a period and the theorem itself.
- Mathematical notation should be typewritten wherever possible. If handwritten notation must be used, it should be clear and legible, with any necessary explanatory notes located in the margin. Equations should be numbered consecutively by section with Arabic numerals in parentheses placed flush right, and should be thusly referred to in the text [such as Eqs. (2.1) and (2.2)].
- Illustrations (photographs, drawings, diagrams, and charts) are to be numbered in one consecutive series of Arabic numerals. The captions for illustrations should be typed on a separate sheet of paper. All illustrations must be complete and final, i.e., camera-ready. Photographs should be large, glossy prints, showing high contrast. Drawings should be prepared with india ink. Either original drawings or good-quality photographic prints are acceptable. Identify figures on the back with author‘s name and number of the illustration.
- Tables should be numbered (with Roman numerals) and referred to by number in the text. Each table should be typed on a separate sheet of paper.
- List references alphabetically at the end of the paper. Use the appropriate superscript numeral in parentheses for citation in the text. Where there are three or more authors, only the first author‘s name is given in the text, followed by et al. References should include (in this order): last names and initials of all authors, year published, title of article, name of publication, volume number, and inclusive pages. The style and punctuation of the references should conform to that used in the journal -- illustrated by the following examples:
Journal Article

Book
2. Gorenstein, D. (1982). Finite Simple Groups: An Introduction to Their Classification, Plenum Press, New York.
Contribution to a Book
3. Abrams, R. A., and Wu, C. T. (1980). Projection and restriction methods in geometric programming and related problems. In Avriel, M. (ed.), Advances in Geometric Programming, Plenum Press, New York, pp. 165-182.
- Footnotes should be avoided. When their use is absolutely necessary, footnotes should be numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals and should be typed at the bottom of the page to which they refer. Place a line above the footnote, so that it is set off from the text. Use the appropriate superscript numeral (without parentheses) for citation in the text.
- After a manuscript has been accepted for publication and after all revisions have been incorporated, manuscripts should be submitted to the Editor‘s Office as hard copy accompanied by electronic files on disk. Label the disk with identifying information -- software, journal name, and first author‘s last name. The disk must be the one from which the accompanying manuscript (finalized version) was printed out. The Editor‘s Office cannot accept a disk without its accompanying, matching hard-copy manuscript.
- The journal makes no page charges. Reprints are available to authors, and order forms with the current price schedule are sent with proofs.
