Please submit your paper in LaTeX format

No other formats are currently acceptable. Do NOT send pdf or dvi files.

If there are accompanying style files or diagrams, please be sure to include them. Diagrams should be prepared in .ps (postscript) or .eps format, not pdf or other formats. The subject line of your email message should read "Submission to the Journal of Integer Sequences". (Any other header is in danger of being discarded by a spam filter.) If there are multiple files, please consider sending them as a Unix tar file. Be sure that your submission latex'es properly with no errors or warning messages. Check the log files before submission.

Authors may want to suggest two or three names of possible referees.

We regret that we cannot handle submissions in Microsoft Word or Word Perfect formats. Submissions must be in English.

Note to submitters from China: e-mail from many servers in China, such as 163.com, is typically marked as spam. Please try submitting from a different e-mail address, such as gmail.com.

Any submission claiming to solve a significant open problem (e.g., Goldbach's conjecture; infinitely many twin primes) or a major result such as Fermat's last theorem must be accompanied by a letter written by a Ph. D. mathematician at a university, stating that he/she has read the paper and endorses it.

If you do not receive an acknowledgment from us within one week, then we have not received your paper.

In preparing your paper, please follow the guidelines in our LaTeX style guide:
- postscript format
- pdf format
- dvi format
- tex source
