As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.
Each article should include
- a title of no more than one hundred characters in length, including spaces, preferably containing no symbols. If the title is long, provide a shortened form of it, no more than forty characters.
- an abstract of not more than 150 words, preferably containing no formulae and no references, and certainly containing no complicated formulae;
- 2020 Mathematics subject classification numbers and a few Key Words and Phrases.
Two alternative styles for references and citations are described below. Authors are requested to use one, and only one, style consistently throughout their typescript.
Style 1.
A typical reference in the list of references would be:
[3] L. Gratschen, `Pseudo-quasi-ergodic theorems', J. Austral. Math. Soc. 2 (1960), 203.
A corresponding reference in the text would be: Gratschen [3]; or [3,4,9]; or Gratschen [3, Theorem 1].
Style 2.
A typical reference in the list of references would be:
[GBP] G. B. Preston, `Pseudo-quasi-ergodic theorems', J. Austral. Math. Soc. 40 (1960), 321–342.
A corresponding reference in the text would be: Preston [GBP]; or ([GBP, KG, GHL]); or Preston [GBP, Proposition 2].
In each style, the list of references should be in alphabetical order of surnames of first authors.
Each article should include names and full addresses (including email) of all authors. The corresponding author should be identified.
Authors should provide diagrams drawn to professional standards (at least 600 dpi). Diagrams in the form of postscript files, or similar, may also be acceptable; the quality, however, should be similar to that obtained by a professional artist.
Advice to authors
Preparing electronic files
The Journal is prepared in LaTeX and therefore any form of TeX source is useful to the typesetters. We would ask you, however, to avoid the use of non-standard macros which may make the work of the typesetters more difficult.
Style Files
The style files of the Journal may be obtained from here. We encourage potential contributors who are using LaTeX to use these style files when preparing the final electronic version of their papers. It should enable them to obtain a much clearer idea of the final appearance of their paper in print.
Line spacing and margins
In order to achieve the Journal's requirements for line spacing and margins, it is sufficient to add the following lines to (the preamble of) your LaTeX source document:
\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{1.5}
\textwidth=(paperwidth-6)cm
where 'paperwidth' is the width of your paper in centimetres
