Instructions to Authors

The Proceedings, Journal and Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society appear bimonthly and are among the world's leading mathematical research periodicals. They share a common Editorial Board and papers are allocated according to length, with shorter papers going to the Bulletin, those of around 9 to 17 pages to the Journal, and longer papers to the Proceedings. In addition, the Bulletin has occasional surveys and research-expository papers, and obituaries. It also has a book reviews section providing a comprehensive coverage of research texts across the whole of mathematics and statistics.

The subject coverage of the LMS periodicals ranges across a broad spectrum of mathematics, covering the whole of pure mathematics together with some more applied areas of analysis. mathematical physics, theoretical computer science, probability and statistics. The current Editorial Board reflect predominantly pure interests, but the Society wishes to encourage a spread to more applicable areas and will consider papers submitted in areas of mathematics not covered by existing Board members.
