About the journal

Journal of Mathematical Physics is published monthly by the American Institute of Physics. Its purpose is the publication of papers in mathematical physics ?that is, the application of mathematics to problems in physics and the development of mathematical methods suitable for such applications and for the formulation of physical theories. The mathematics should be written in a manner that is understandable to theoretical physicists. Occasionally, reviews of mathematical subjects relevant to physics and special issues combining papers on a topic of current interest may be published.

Journal of Mathematical Physics welcomes original research of the highest quality in all active areas of mathematical physics, including the following:

Classical Mechanics Percolation Models
Conformal Field Theory Quantum Chaos
Dynamical Systems Quantum Computing
Electromagnetic Theory (mathematical aspects) Quantum Field Theory (algebraic and constructive)

Instructions to Authors
For general format and style, consult recent issues of the Journal and the 1990 Fourth Edition of the AIP Style Manual, published by the American Institute of Physics and available free-of-charge for downloading.

The Manuscript, including the abstract, references, and captions, should be neatly typed in English, using 12-point type and wide spacing, on one side only of 21.6 x 28 cm (8-1/2 x 11 in. or A4) white paper with ample margins. It should be carefully proofread by the author. The manuscript must be in good scientific American English; this is the authors' responsibility. Number all pages in single sequence beginning with the title and abstract page. The title page should contain the title of the article, the names of the authors, a suitable byline, and a short abstract only. Pages of the manuscript should be arranged in the following order: abstract, text, acknowledgment, appendices, references, tables, and figure captions. Papers should not be lengthened by unnecessary descriptions and repetitions, but neither should authors use a telegraphic style detrimental to the clarity and understanding of the paper.

The Title should be as concise as possible but sufficiently informative to describe the subject under discussion.

The Abstract should be self-contained (contain no footnotes). One should not have to read the paper to understand the abstract. It should be about 5% of the length of the article, but less than 500 words. It must appear on its own sheet(s) separate from the text. The abstract should be written as one paragraph and should not contain displayed mathematical equations or tabular material.

Authors' names should preferably be written in a standard form for all publications to facilitate indexing and avoid ambiguities.

The manuscript should have an Introduction that places the work in a context, beginning with the general physical or mathematical problem to which it is directed, following with the motivation for the particular approach taken, and summarizing the principal results.

Equations should be well aligned and should not be crowded; only the more important ones should be numbered on the right-hand side of the manuscript. Equations should be numbered consecutively throughout, i.e., (1), (2), (3), etc. [The form (1.1), (1.2), etc., in Sec. I, (2.1), (2.2), etc., in Sec. II, and so on is acceptable, but not preferred.] Several equations grouped together may be given letters to distinguish them [for example, (2a), (2b), (2c)]. A later, somewhat changed version of an earlier equation may be labeled with a prime [for example, (1), (2), (3), (1'), (4), etc.]. Other numbering schemes are unacceptable and will be changed. Use center dot only to indicate dot products and a boldfaced cross (x) to indicate a cross product. Use a lightface cross (x) to indicate multiplication which is continued to the next line. The solidus (/) should be used instead of built-up fractions in running text, and in display wherever clarity would not be jeopardized. Use "exp" for complicated exponents. Avoid repetition of a complicated expression by representing it with a standard, commonly used symbol.

Notation must be legible, clear, compact, and consistent with standard usage. All unusual symbols whose identity may not be obvious must be identified the first time they appear, and at all subsequent times when confusion might arise. Superscripts are normally set directly over subscripts; authors should note where readability or the meaning requires a special order.

Major section headings should be numbered consecutively with Roman numerals. The Introduction is to be numbered as Sec. I. Unless a paper is very short, it should be broken up into sections, and all sections must have headings.

Acknowledgments should appear under that heading at the end of the main text (before the appendices, footnotes, tables, and figure captions, if any). Acknowledgment for financial support should appear as the last paragraph under the same heading.

Appendices should have a short title, and equations in them should be numbered consecutively [(A1), (A2), etc., for Appendix A (or the only appendix); (B1), (B2), etc., for Appendix B; and so on].

References and footnotes should be in the form indicated in the AIP Style Manual. There should be no reference to classified publications even if their titles are unclassified. In every case, where a reference to a published (or "submitted to") paper can be used, "unpublished" references must be omitted. In all other cases, references to "unpublished" papers should be avoided; however, reference to a thesis is appropriate. The names, including initials, of all authors in each reference should be given (in the text the use of et al. is permissible). For footnotes to title and bylines use a), b), c), etc. Avoid lengthy footnotes by inserting them in the text, except for the references. A list of references and footnotes should be typed, with wide spacing, separately from the text. A list of abbreviations for journals appears in the AIP Style Manual.

References to books and journal articles, listed at the end of the paper, are to be in one of these formats:

  1. By number, in the order of first appearance, giving the names of the authors, the journal name, volume, year, and first page number only, as in:

    53V. Bargmann, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 38, 961 (1952).

    This paper will be listed as the 53rd in the list of references and cited as 53.

  2. (a)   In alphabetical order according to the first author's last name, giving, in addition to the name, volume, year, and first and last page, also the title of the paper cited, as in:

    Bargmann, V., "On the number of bound states in a central field of force,'' Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 38, 961?66 (1952).

    This paper will be cited as "Bargmann (1952).'' If there are several papers by the same author(s) and the same year, they should be distinguished by letters, as in (1952a).

    (b)   Alternatively, the alphabetically listed references (with full titles and pagination) may be numbered according to their alphabetical order and cited by their number.

Every article has to be consistent in the use of one of these citation styles; they should not be mixed.

Tables should be typewritten on pages separate from the running text. Each table must have a caption that will make the data in the table intelligible without reference to the text. Complicated column headings should be avoided. Footnotes to the table should be indicated by superscripts, a, b, c, etc., and begun anew for each table. The tables should be numbered with Roman numerals in the order in which they are referred to in the text.

Electronic Physics Auxiliary Publication Service (EPAPS) is a low-cost electronic depository for material that is supplemental to a journal article. Appropriate items for deposit include multimedia (e.g., movie files, audio files, 3D rendering files), color figures, data tables, and text (e.g., appendices) that are too lengthy or of too limited interest for inclusion in the printed journal. Retrieval instructions are footnoted in the related published paper. Prominent links in the online journal article allow users to navigate directly to the associated EPAPS deposit. EPAPS deposits may also be retrieved by users free of charge via command-line FTP or via the EPAPS homepage. Authors are encouraged to deposit multimedia files with EPAPS, and should consider depositing in EPAPS color versions of illustrations that will appear in black & white in the journal.

All deposits to EPAPS must be approved by the Journal Editor as part of a manuscript's normal review cycle and require a nominal deposit fee. Obtain deposit forms from the Journal Editor. For additional information about depositing or retrieving EPAPS files, see the EPAPS homepage.

Illustrations: Upon acceptance of your manuscript, authors are strongly encouraged to send all illustrations to AIP Production as electronic files. With your notification of acceptance, you will receive your AIP identification number (e.g., 001301JMP) and instructions for transmitting electronic graphics files to AIP Production. It is important that you send files to AIP as soon as you know the nine-character AIP code number (e.g., 001301JMP) assigned to your accepted manuscript; if your electronic files are received at AIP after hardcopy illustrations have been processed for your paper, the electronic files will not be used.

Please adhere to the following guidelines when preparing your illustrations for submission:

General Guidelines for Preparing Illustrations:

  • Photocopies of artwork are not acceptable; a set of high-quality originals is required.
  • Number figures in the order in which they appear in text.
  • Label illustrations with their number, the name of the first author, and the journal well outside the image area.
  • Place only one figure per page. Place all parts of the same figure on one page, spaced 1/4 inch apart, leaving a 2-inch bottom margin and ensuring that each figure is straight on the page.
  • Label all figure parts with (a), (b), etc. Avoid any large disparity in size of lettering and labels used within one illustration.
  • Prepare illustrations in the final published size, not oversized. The maximum published width for a one-column illustration is 3-3/8 inch (8.5 cm). Each illustration should be prepared for 100% reproduction in order to avoid problems arising from large reductions in size during scanning. This is especially important for screened or shaded illustrations; reduction of screened or shaded originals during the digitizing process introduces an undesirable Moir?pattern.
  • In cases where reduction is required, avoid small open symbols that tend to fill in and avoid small lettering; ensure that, in the final published illustration, there is a minimum of 8-point type size (2.8 mm high; 1/8 inch high) for lettering and 0.5-point width for lines.
  • Ensure that lettering and lines are dark enough, and thick enough, to reproduce clearly, especially if reduction is necessary. Remember that fine lines tend to disappear upon reduction.

Additional Guidelines for Preparation of Electronic Graphics Files:

  • Do not send electronic graphics files to AIP Production until your paper has been accepted for publication and you know the corresponding nine-character AIP identification number for your paper (e.g., 001301JMP). Instructions for preparation and transmission of electronic graphics files to AIP Production may be found here.

Statement of Ethics and Responsibilities of Authors Submitting to AIP Journals

This journal is published as part of the charter of its publisher, the American Institute of Physics (AIP), to advance and diffuse knowledge of the science of physics and its applications to human welfare. To that end, it is essential that all who participate in producing the journal conduct themselves as authors, reviewers, editors, and publishers in accord with the highest level of professional ethics and standards.

A detailed statement of what this journal expects is available here.

By submitting a manuscript to this journal, each author implicitly confirms that it meets the highest ethical standards.


How to Transmit Your Accepted Manuscript Electronically

Compuscripts: AIP accepts the following author-prepared electronic text files for use in production: REVTeX, LaTeX, and Microsoft Word. (Any standard flavor of TeX is acceptable, including LaTeX 2e, REVTeX, AMS-TeX, AMS-LaTeX, and plain TeX.) If you are interested in transmitting an electronic file, please indicate so in the cover letter that accompanies your original submission. Also include an e-mail address. Do not send an electronic text file to AIP Production until your manuscript has been accepted. Details and instructions may be found here.

AIP uses translation software to convert REVTeX, LaTeX and MS Word files into Xyvision composition files for production. Each file will be evaluated for appropriateness; authors will receive notice with their galley proofs as to whether or not their file was used, along with a feedback form detailing any problems encountered in processing the file.

The REVTeX Toolbox and the Word Author Toolkit, as well as general information regarding AIP's compuscript program, are accessible here.


Manuscript Preparation Checklist

Use this checklist to avoid the most common mechanical errors in submitted manuscripts.

  1. The manuscript must be one-sided only, using 12-point type and wide spacing throughout.
  2. Number all pages in sequence, starting with the title page.
  3. Type title and abstract on a separate first page.
  4. Type (double-spaced) list of references (including footnotes), list of figure captions, and tables on pages separate from each other and from the main text.
  5. Type references in the style used by this journal.
  6. If submitting hardcopies, submit (a) three clear copies of the manuscript with clear copies of figures and (b) the original high-quality figures.
  7. The original figures must be identified by figure number and author's name and must be in the final published size, not oversized.
  8. Mail a signed AIP Transfer of Copyright Agreement Form to the JMP Editorial Office. A blank copyright transfer form is available here

Editorial Board

Send manuscripts to:

Editor
Journal of Mathematical Physics
Indiana University
The Poplars, Room 324
Bloomington, IN 47405 USA
Telephone: 812-855-3576
FAX: 812-855-3579
E-mail: jmp@indiana.edu

Unless otherwise stated, submission of a manuscript will be understood to mean that the paper has been neither copyrighted, classified, published, nor is being considered for publication elsewhere.

A duly signed transfer of copyright agreement form is required for publication in this journal. No claim is made to original U.S. Government works.

Manuscripts may be submitted in one of two ways:

(a) Electronically to jmp@indiana.edu. Electronic submissions must be in the form of fully typeset documents (i.e., not in LaTeX format, to be typeset by the Journal) as PostScript or PDF files attached to an e-mail covering letter of submission as above, or else giving its address on an electronic archive where it can be found, followed by an airmail letter of submission (without copies of the manuscript).

(b) Three hardcopies, using 12-point type and wide spacing, and one set of original figures, accompanied by a covering letter that specifies authors, title, Journal, the corresponding author's e-mail address, and any special requests. A copy of the manuscript should be retained by the author.

Authors who wish their manuscript to be handled by a specific member of the Editorial Board should so notify the editorial office in the cover letter sent there by airmail or both by e-mail and by airmail. This cover letter should either be accompanied by the manuscript as an attachment as above, or by three copies of the manuscript. In addition, they should send a letter to the Board member of their choice, either by airmail, accompanied by two copies of the manuscript, or by e-mail, with the manuscript as an attachment as above.

There is no publication charge.

Authors whose manuscripts have been accepted for publication will receive correspondence informing them of the issue for which it is tentatively scheduled and instructions for transmitting electronic files to AIP Production. Date of publication may be before the cover date of the issue. Authors may access publication data for their manuscripts online through AIP's AMSIS service.

Proofs and all subsequent correspondence pertaining to papers in the production process should be addressed to:

Editorial Supervisor
Journal of Mathematical Physics
American Institute of Physics
Suite 1NO1, 2 Huntington Quadrangle
Melville, NY 11747-4502 USA
Telephone: 516-576-2437
FAX: 516-576-2643
E-mail: jmp@aip.org

Reference must be made to the AIP identification number, title, author, and scheduled issue date. A limited number of alterations in proof are unavoidable, but the cost of making extensive alterations after the article has been typeset may be charged to the author. Please do not address correspondence about proofs, reprints, artwork, publication charges, etc., to the Editor. To do so simply delays the appropriate action and response.

Accepted Manuscript Status Inquiry System (AMSIS): Through the AMSIS homepage, authors may access information about their accepted manuscript during the production process at AIP. AMSIS can be used only by authors of accepted manuscripts; direct requests about papers still under review to the Editorial Office.

Authors generally give serious consideration to the content of a paper; however, in preparing a manuscript, they sometimes fail to follow certain basic rules required for speedy publication and a more satisfactory appearance of the published paper. The speed with which papers are processed in the Editorial Office and prepared for publication by the American Institute of Physics can be increased considerably by authors' care in the preparation of manuscripts.

General information regarding color charges, copyrights, and similar material may be found in the printed journal, on the inside front cover of each issue and following the table of contents. See general information for authors here.
