About the Journal

The Bulletin , Proceedings and Journal of the London Mathematical Society have long been among the world's leading mathematical research periodicals. They have been joined by the Transactions of the London Mathematical Society , a fully open access online journal launched in March 2013. All four journals share a common Editorial Advisory Board and the same standard of peer review.

The Bulletin also publishes survey articles and obituaries. However, the Bulletin will cease to publish book reviews after 2015 and no longer accepts books for review.

Subject coverage of the LMS periodicals ranges across a broad spectrum of mathematics, covering the whole of pure mathematics together with some more applied areas of analysis, mathematical physics, theoretical computer science, probability, and statistics.

The London Mathematical Society

The London Mathematical Society began publishing research papers in 1865 and over time it has published the best of British mathematics having developed an internationally renowned reputation as one of the best publishers of high quality mathematics in the world today. The journals attract authors from over 80 countries and the number of papers submitted has grown enormously in recent years, enabling the Society to select and publish some of the best mathematical research currently available.
