Text

For initial submissions, we require a single (PDF) file containing your manuscript. In case of acceptance, we assist authors to prepare manuscripts using the IJM Latex Template  (We encourage authors to upload the template through Overleaf to easily prepare and edit their manuscripts).

A PDF file only can be used at the time of submission, but after acceptance source files are compulsory, and delivering source files after acceptance may cause a delay in the publication process.

Word files are also accepted (use this template).

Headings

Please use the decimal system of headings with no more than three levels.

Abbreviations

Please define abbreviations at first indication then use them regularly thereafter.

Footnotes

To provide additional information like a citation of a reference included in the reference list, footnotes can be used. A single reference citation, bibliographic details of a reference, and any figures or tables must not be included in footnotes.

of every author to the study and preparation of the manuscript.

Tables

• Use Arabic numerals to number all the tables.

• Cite the tables in text in consecutive numerical order.
• Please supply a caption for each table (title) describing the components of the table.

Figure

• Provide each figure electronically.

• Use Arabic numerals to number all the figures.

• Cite your figure in text in successive numerical order.
• Figure parts must be labeled by lowercase letters (a, b, c, etc.).

• Name your figure files with "Fig" and the figure number, e.g., Fig1.eps.
• Figures must be submitted separately from the text.

• While preparing figures, size figures to fit in the column width.
• Every figure must have a brief caption explaining precisely what the figure illustrates. 

Acknowledgments

Acknowledgments about people, grants, funds, etc. should be given at the end of the paper but preceding the references.

Reference list

Your references must not be copied and pasted. As a result, it’s important that you format them suitably, as they’ll be electronically connected to external databases whenever possible. References should be listed in alphabetical order according to the surnames of the first author at the end of the paper and should be cited in the text as, e.g., [2] or [2; Theorem 3], etc.

If available, please always include DOIs as full DOI links in your reference list (e.g. “https://doi.org/abc”).

References should be given in the following format: (AMS)
