Editorial Policies

Focus and Scope

The BULLETIN of the Australian Mathematical Society aims at quick publication of original research in all branches of mathematics. To ensure speedy publication, only articles which are sufficiently well presented, able to be published without revision, and which are judged by the Editor (often in consultation with an Associate Editor) to be competitive are refereed. This policy is in the interests of authors, as a quick rejection is better than a slow rejection. The Bulletin receives more than five times the material that can be published, therefore there are many commendable papers not accepted. Editorial decisions on acceptance or otherwise are taken quickly, normally within a month of receipt of the paper.

Abstracts of PhD Theses

The BULLETIN of the Australian Mathematical Society publishes "Abstracts of Australasian Ph.D. Theses". The submission to the BULLETIN may be the abstract included in the thesis itself. However, the BULLETIN will accept abstracts of up to three pages, which may include references. All the mathematical sciences are covered, including pure and applied mathematics, probability and mathematical statistics, mathematical physics, and mathematical computer science.

Peer Review Process

Papers are accepted only after peer review. Manuscripts are accepted for review with the understanding that the same work is not concurrently submitted elsewhere. As even minor revisions are generally not permitted, authors should read carefully all the details listed below. For a paper to be acceptable for publication, not only should it contain new and interesting results but also

  • the exposition should be clear and attractive, and

  • the manuscript should be in publishable form, without revision.


The London Mathematical Society has produced some useful instructions for authors which will help authors with both of these requirements: we link to these here with permission for the convenience of our prospective authors. The American Mathematical Society Web site also has useful information for authors.
