Subject: Journal of Topology From: Ulrike Tillmann Date: Mon, 15 Jan 2007 18:00:28 +0000 (GMT) Journal of Topology It is with great pleasure that we announce the launch of a new journal, to be called the Journal of Topology, that will publish its first issue in January 2008. The Board of the Journal will be Michael Atiyah, Martin Bridson, Ralph Cohen, Simon Donaldson, Nigel Hitchin, Frances Kirwan, Marc Lackenby, Jean Lannes, Wolfgang L"uck, John Roe, Graeme Segal, Ulrike Tillmann, and Ulrike Tillmann will be the Managing Editor. Aims and Scope: The Journal of Topology will publish papers of high quality and significance in topology, geometry and adjacent areas of mathematics. Interesting, important and often unexpected links connect topology and geometry with many other parts of mathematics, and the editors welcome submissions on exciting new advances concerning such links, as well as those in the core subject areas of the journal. The Journal of Topology will appear in quarterly issues with articles posted individually on line. Guidelines for paper submission: The journal invites submissions from January 16, 2007. During 2007, these may be sent as a single PDF or Postscript file, attached to an email to jtop@lms.ac.uk. Please do not send more than one file per submission, or use other file formats, during the review process. The paper should be submitted exclusively to the Journal of Topology and must not be under consideration elsewhere. Authors are recommended to use lms.cls when preparing the paper for submission and this can be found at www.lms.ac.uk/publications/instrauthor.html . Please include in the email, the names of authors, title of paper and the name of the member of the Editorial Board who you feel is the most appropriate person to handle your paper. If the email has been received and the file is readable, you will receive an acknowledgement within one week. The journal will have fully electronic submission forms and manuscript tracking system set up later in the year. If you have further enquiries about the journal, please contact Dr Susan Hezlet, Publisher LMS, at hezlet@lms.ac.uk, or the Managing Editor at tillmann@maths.ox.ac.uk. The price of the Journal for Volume 1 (four issues) including electronic access will be £300 or $570 in 2008, although we plan further discounts for libraries who take our other journals. The journal is owned by the LMS, a not-for-profit publisher and the pre-eminent British society for research mathematics, and will be typeset, printed and distributed on our behalf by Oxford University Press. All sales enquiries should be made to jnls.cust.serv@oxfordjournals.or to hezlet@lms.ac.u k.
