NOTE TO U.K. AUTHORS

This journal is compliant with the RCUK (Research Councils of the United Kingdom) Policy on Access to Research Outputs.

Some U.K. universities are using the SHERPA database  to decide on journal compliance, but that database does not reflect the true position regarding copyright on LMS journals, and U.K. authors should refer directly to our copyright policy and the new RCUK guidance. We are working with our publishing partners to get the SHERPA database corrected.

Aims and Scope

Founded in 1926 and now in its Second Series, the Journal of the London Mathematical Society publishes high-quality research papers of medium length in mathematics. The Journal has a wide scope which ranges from number theory to functional analysis, from finite simple groups to the mathematical foundations of quantum theory, and from logic and topos theory to the topology of Lie groups.

The current Editorial Advisory Board reflects predominantly pure interests, but the Society wishes to encourage a spread to more applicable areas.

Guidelines for submission

Statement on Pricing Policy

The Society recognizes the importance of the dissemination of mathematical knowledge and the issues of rising costs, growth in research output and falling library budgets. The Society will retain the objective of increasing its support for mathematical activities and consequent benefits to the mathematical community in the UK and internationally. Within these parameters, the Council of the Society will apply a fair and reasonable pricing policy with respect to its publications.
