Instructions for Authors
Manuscripts should be submitted in electronic form to the Editor most closely associated with the topic discussed. The Editors, their e-mail addresses and primary research areas are listed in the Editorial Information.
Each paper should include a brief but informative abstract without references, a list of key words, and the Mathematics Subject Classification 2010 representing the primary and secondary subjects of the article. The first page should contain the title of the paper, authors' names, complete affiliations (name, institution, city, state, and zip code) and their e-mail addresses, as well as a suggested running title of less than 70 characters.
Please do not submit source files for manuscripts until requested to do so. However, when a paper is accepted, the authors are asked to supply a source file. LaTeX is the preferred format.
Keep formatting macros to a minimum to make conversion of files more accurate. Do not worry about chapter headings, running titles, bad page breaks, etc. and avoid adding extra space and using glue to improve the appearance of the manuscript.
Please ensure that the material has been carefully proof-read and that all input and style files are included.
Figures must be of sufficiently high resolution (minimum 600 dpi). They should be provided in Portable Document Format (PDF) or most preferably in Encapsulated PostScript (EPS). A separate file for each figure should be submitted. In addition the original source files of the figures would be very helpful. EPS (or PDF) graphics may be incorporated into the LaTeX file by using one of the standard macro packages such as graphicx.
As the journal is printed in black and white, the article must not contain colored material. Please convert colored figures in grey scale! Only if a figure benefits scientifically from use of color, authors may submit an additional (!) colored version of this figure that will be used for the journal’s online edition. In this case, the figure caption and the text must, however, not refer specifically to any color.
Tables should be numbered (with Roman numerals) and referred to by number in the text.
Footnotes should be avoided.
References should be collected at the end of the paper and numbered in alphabetical order of the authors' names. Titles of journals should be abbreviated as in Mathematical Reviews. The following examples show the preferred style for references to a preprint that has appeared on arXiv, a paper in a proceedings volume, an unpublished dissertation, a paper in a journal, and a book.

Authors should notify the journal of any changes of address while their paper is under consideration. The e-mail address for Forum Mathematicum is forum-mathematicum@degruyter.com
In all other matters arising before the acceptance of papers, authors are requested to communicate directly with the appropriate editor.
Authors will receive a PDF file of the page proofs for correction. Only typographical errors should be corrected in the proofs. If excessive alterations to the original manuscript are requested, the authors will be charged for the cost of resetting.
Fifty offprints for each article published in Volume 22 will be supplied free of charge to the corresponding author.
