Nonlinear Studies

To expedite the refereeing process, it is strongly recommended that authors concurrently (with hard copies) send in a copy of a pdf file or  ps (postcript) file of the paper electronically.

Manuscripts typeset using  LaTeX  or AMSTeX are the only two TeX formats that  are strongly recommended to authors for preparing their manuscripts.

Submission of a manuscript is a representation that the work has not been previously published, has not been copyrighted, is not being submitted for publication elsewhere, and that its submission has been approved by all of the authors and by the institution where the work was carried out; furthermore, that any person cited as a source of personal communications has approved such citation, and that the authors have agreed that the copyright in the article shall be assigned exclusively to the Publisher upon acceptance of the article. The manuscript will not be returned.

Manuscripts should be typed on one side of 8.5 X 11 in (21.5 X 28 cm) white paper, double-spaced, with wide margins. Number each page. Page 1 should contain the title, authors names and complete affiliations. Place any footnotes to the title at the bottom of Page 1.

Each paper requires an abstract not exceeding 200 words summarizing the techniques, methods and main conclusions.

AMS subject classifications and key words  must accompany all articles, placed at the bottom of Page 1 before any other footnotes.

Equations should be centered with the number placed in parentheses at the right margin.

Figures must be drafted in high resolution and high contrast with a bounding box in .eps format in a form suitable for Latex compilation.

References should be listed alphabetically, typed and punctuated according to the following examples:

Each paper requires a separate page containing a proposed running head (abbreviated form of the title) of no more than 40 characters, and the name, mailing address  and e-mail address of the author to whom proofs should be sent.
