File format and macro package We prefer that articles be prepared in LateX2e, using the last version of AMSLaTeX and the amsart class. Articles may also be prepared in LaTeX2e or LaTeX209 with standard article class, or in Plain TeX. A macro package in LateX2e, designed especially for ESAIM: M2AN, is available via anonymous ftp from:
ftp://ftp.edpsciences.org/ in the directory /pub/m2an
Electronic submission Authors are encouraged to submit their manuscripts via email, but only through the Editorial Office at: This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it . They can specify they prefer to submit to one of the Editors-in-chief. Global resulting PDF files (preferably) or Postcript of articles are welcome. They should however be carefully tested for printing and compressed before submission. Hard copy submission Exceptionally articles may be submitted in hard copy. Please send three copies to:
At this stage, an electronic version of the manuscript (TeX, LaTeX), which must exactly match the accepted version, should be sent to the publisher (even if the article had been previously submitted electronically). The Editorial Office will send an acceptance letter to the corresponding author, and at the same time, will ask for electronic files of text and figures. All portions of the manuscript available in electronic form should be sent to the production department according to the instructions in the acceptance letter from the Editorial Office. If authors cannot provide an electronic file of their text, they must advise the production department as soon as they receive the acceptance letter, to avoid any delay in the beginning of the production process. Authors should keep in mind that proof-reading is their responsibility. Corrections should therefore be clear and made on the proofs using a red pen. The use of standard proof correction marks is recommended. TeX, LaTeX files are modified by the production department to follow general presentation rules of the journal. The main aim of proof-reading is to correct errors that may have occurred during the production process, and not to modify the content of the paper. The reproduction of artwork, the layout of the pages and equation breakings introduced by the production staff should carefully be checked. Corrections that might lead to a change in the page layout should be avoided. The proofs, once corrected, should be signed and returned to the publisher as soon as possible. Offprint orders
The offprint order form must be filled out and returned together with
the corrected proofs. If the publisher receives no order of any kind
from the authors, it will be assumed that only the 25 free offprints
are requested. Title, Abstract
Title should be simple and informative. A shortened version of the
title consisting of a maximum of 75 characters (including spaces) for
running headers should also be provided. An abstract in English is
required. It should be completely self-contained, not exceeding 200
words and written as a single paragraph.
Author(s) name(s) and affiliations
A list of all authors, including first names, as well as corresponding
addresses, should be provided. Addresses should contain all information
necessary for an effective mail delivery. E-mail, fax and telephone
numbers should also be provided to speed up communication between
Editorial Office, readers and authors. Mathematics Subject Classification scheme
Each manuscript must be assigned indexing codes. MSC numbers, developed
jointly by the American Mathematical Society and Zentralblatt, may be
found at the URLs: http://www.ams.org/msc/and http://www.emis.de/msc2000.html. Keywords are also required.
Numbering
Equations, Lemma, Theorem... should be numbered with the section: for
example, equation 3 of Section 1, must be numbered equation (1.3).
Numbering must be labelled on the right side. References References should be cited numerically in the text (for example, [1], [2, 5, 7], [8-10]). All references must be labelled. Items in the bibliography are ordered alphabetically by authors. Authors may be cited in the text by name, but without initials. Authors should use the models below in the final reference list. Examples for Journals, Books, Conference Proceedings and Doctoral dissertations, respectively:
Figures Each figure should be cited in the text. Good-quality figures have the following characteristics:
Color illustrations are accepted, provided that authors make a contribution towards the cost of four-color reproduction and printing. The present rates (tax-free) are 732 Euros for the first page of color illustrations. Prices will be given upon request in case of additional four-color pages. |
