Preparation of Manuscript
Manuscripts should be prepared according to the following style rules. Deviation from these rules causes publication delays.
Manuscripts prepared using TeX or LaTeX are welcome; however, LaTeX (2e) is preferred. Authors are strongly encouraged to use the LaTeX template available at http://www.authors.elsevier.com/latex for manuscript preparation. Note that the use of other specialized versions of custom macros may necessitate conventional typesetting from a hard-copy manuscript. The manuscript will be edited according to the style of the journal, and proofs must be read carefully by the author.
Manuscripts should be double-spaced on one side of 8.5 x 11-in. white paper or A4 white paper with 1-in. margins. Number all pages consecutively.
Title page (page 1). This page should contain the article title, authors' names, and complete affiliations, footnotes to the title, and the address for manuscript correspondence (including e-mail address and telephone and fax numbers
Abstract (page 2). The abstract must be a single paragraph that summarizes the main findings of the paper in less than 150 words. After the abstract, a list of up to 10 keywords that will be useful for indexing or searching should be included.
References. Cite references in the text by an Arabic numeral between brackets as [1], [1,2], [1, Theorem 5.4], etc. It is suggested that text references be given in the form "As Jones [31] showed...," rather than "As [31] showed...." References should be listed in the order cited in the text and typed double-spaced throughout.

For unpublished lectures or symposia, include the title of the paper, name of the sponsoring society in full, and the date. For journal names, follow "Abbreviations of Names of Serials, Reviewed in Mathematical Reviews" (American Mathematical Society). When in doubt about employing certain abbreviations, use clarity as a guide.
Footnotes. In text, footnotes should be avoided. If absolutely necessary, identify them by superscript Arabic numerals in order of their appearance and type them together on a separate page, double-spaced.
Tables. Number each table consecutively with Arabic numerals in order of appearance in the text. Type each table double-spaced on a separate page with a short descriptive title typed directly above and with essential footnotes below. Authors should submit complex tables as camera-ready copy.
Figures. Figures should be in a finished form suitable for publication. Number figures consecutively with Arabic numerals, and indicate the top and the authors on the back of each figure. Lettering on drawings should be of professional quality or generated by high-resolution computer graphics and must be large enough to take withstand appropriate reduction. Figures should be submitted separately from the text. Digital artwork of at least 300 dpi resolution is accepted in .eps or TIFF formats. Type all legends consecutively on a separate sheet. Please visit our Web site at http://authors.elsevier.com/artwork for detailed instructions on preparing electronic artwork.
Color figures. One color plate will be published free of charge in each article, provided color is deemed scientifically necessary by the reviewers and the Editorial Board. Additional color figures in print will be charged to the author. Submit color illustrations as original photographs, high-quality computer prints or transparencies, close to the size expected in publication, or as 35-mm slides. Polaroid color prints are not suitable. If, together with your accepted article, you submit usable color figures, Elsevier will ensure, at no additional charge, that these figures will appear in color on the Web (e.g., ScienceDirect and other sites)in addition to the one free color figure. Authors should clearly state in a cover letter sent to the editorial office at submission or at final acceptance which figures they would like reproduced in color for free in the electronic version of the article only and which figures they would like reproduced in color in the print and electronic versions at a cost to them.
Equations. All equations should be typewritten and the numbers for displayed equations should be placed in parentheses at the right margin.
Proofs
Article proofs will be sent to the corresponding author. Authors will be charged for alterations in excess of 10% of the cost of composition.
