American Mathematical Monthly

Journal Title：American Mathematical Monthly

The Monthly's readers expect a high standard of exposition; they look for articles that inform, stimulate, challenge, enlighten, and even entertain. Monthly articles are meant to be read, enjoyed, and discussed, rather than just archived. Articles may be expositions of old or new results, historical or biographical essays, speculations or definitive treatments, broad developments, or explorations of a single application. Novelty and generality are far less important than clarity of exposition and broad appeal. Appropriate figures, diagrams, and photographs are encouraged.

Notes are short, sharply focused, and possibly informal. They are often gems that provide a new proof of an old theorem, a novel presentation of a familiar theme, or a lively discussion of a single issue.

Abstracts for articles or notes should entice the prospective reader into exploring the subject of the paper and should make it clear to the reader why this paper is interesting and important. The abstract should highlight the concepts of the paper rather than summarize the mechanics. The abstract is the first impression of the paper, not a technical summary of the paper. Excessive use of notation is discouraged as it can limit the interest of the broad readership of the MAA, and can limit search-ability of the article.

《月刊》的读者期待高标准的展示；他们寻找能够提供信息、刺激、挑战、启发甚至娱乐的文章。每月文章旨在阅读、享受和讨论，而不仅仅是存档。文章可以是对旧结果或新结果的阐述、历史或传记文章、推测或最终处理、广泛的发展或对单个应用程序的探索。新颖性和普遍性远不如清晰的阐述和广泛的吸引力重要。鼓励使用适当的数字、图表和照片。

笔记简短，重点突出，并且可能是非正式的。它们通常是为旧定理提供新证明、对熟悉主题进行新颖呈现或对单个问题进行热烈讨论的瑰宝。

文章或注释的摘要应吸引潜在读者探索论文的主题，并应让读者清楚为什么这篇论文有趣且重要。摘要应该突出论文的概念，而不是总结机制。摘要是论文的第一印象，而不是论文的技术总结。不鼓励过度使用符号，因为它会限制 MAA 广大读者的兴趣，并可能限制文章的搜索能力。
