Types of Manuscripts

Journal of Mathematics and Allied Sciences publishes manuscripts in the following categories:

Research Article: These are original research manuscripts. The work should report scientifically sound experiments and provide a substantial amount of new information. The article should include the most recent and relevant references in the field. The structure should include an Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion, and Conclusions (optional) sections.

Review Article: Reviews offer a comprehensive analysis of the existing literature within a field of study, identifying current gaps or problems. They should be critical and constructive and provide recommendations for future research. The structure can include an Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Relevant Sections, Discussion, Conclusions, and Future Directions.

Accepted File Formats

Authors are encouraged to use the Microsoft Word template or LaTeX template to prepare their manuscript. Using the template file will substantially shorten the time to complete copy-editing and publication of accepted manuscripts. The total amount of data for all files must not exceed 120 MB. If this is a problem, please contact the Editorial Office. Accepted file formats are:

Microsoft Word: Manuscripts prepared in Microsoft Word must be converted into a single file before submission. When preparing manuscripts in Microsoft Word. Please insert your graphics (schemes, figures, etc.) in the main text after the paragraph of its first citation.
LaTeX: Manuscripts prepared in LaTeX must be collated into one ZIP folder (including all source files and images, so that the Editorial Office can recompile the submitted PDF). When preparing manuscripts in LaTeX.
Supplementary files: May be any format, but it is recommended that you use common, non-proprietary formats where possible.

Manuscript Preparation

Cover Letter

The cover page includes (a) complete manuscript title; (b) List all authors’ full names, highest academic degrees, professional titles, affiliations, and locations of affiliations; (c) name and address of the corresponding author, including, telephone number, and e-mail address and (d) sources of support that require acknowledgment, and a short title of no more than 45 characters (including spaces) for use as a running title.

Title

The title should be brief, concise, and call attention to the main point of the article. With a few exceptions, abbreviations and acronyms must be written out in full in titles. (Font: Times New Roman, Size: 14, Bold).

Use the following format: Finding Roots of p-Adic Polynomial Equations Using A Two Step Iterative Method

Authors and their Affiliation

Authors are urged to include their full names, at minimum, first and last names of each author.

Use the following format: Arkaprava Bhandari, Anup Haldar and Sayantan Roy*

If two or more authors contributed equally to an article, this contribution may be acknowledged with a footnote with # sign that states “These authors contributed equally to this study.”

However, a biographical sketch will be printed for only the first author (unless the article has only 2 authors).

Mark the corresponding author with * as superscript and write details as:
Affiliation and corresponding author: The full name of institutions and subsidiary departments should be given. The address of the institution should include the name of the institution, city, country (in capital, e.g. INDIA). When a paper has several authors from different institutions, key the author to the address with superscript Arabic numerals (for detail please refer current issue papers). Affiliating address should be in italic and centralized.

For two different addresses of one author, use different consecutive numbers e.g. 1,2 (as superscript).

Use the following format: Arkaprava Bhandari¹, Anup Haldar² and Sayantan Roy³*

¹Department of Mathematics, Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda Educational and Research Institute, Belur Math, Howrah, West Bengal 711202, INDIA

²Department of Mathematics, Acharya Prafulla Chandra Roy Government College, Educational and Research Institute, Department of Mathematics, Himachal Vihar, Matigara, Siliguri-734010, West Bengal, INDIA
³Department of Higher Education, Bikash Bhavan, Kolkata 700091, West Bengal, INDIA

*Corresponding author: Sayantan Roy; Email: xxx@gmail.com, ORCID ID: xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx

A brief running title should be in the title page after corresponding email address. Total words should exceed 80 characters (8-10 words). If running title is declarative or interrogative sentences, it is not acceptable.

Abstract

An abstract is a brief, comprehensive summary of the contents of the article; it allows readers to survey the contents of an article quickly. The abstract should be concise, less than 250 words, and describe, in a paragraph, the purpose, methods, important results, and conclusion of the study, but not repeat information already presented in the title.

Highlights

Authors should mention highlights for the paper in bullet points only.

DO NOT REPEAT THE SENTENCES.

Keywords

This is a list of important terms relevant to the content of the paper and should be different from the title. Up to 4-5 key words should be listed at the bottom of the abstract to be used as index terms.

Introduction

In this part, no need to write a separate heading like ‘INTRODUCTION’. This is a brief background and is limited to the statement of the importance of the study, problem, or the aim of the experiment. It may briefly justify the research and specify the hypotheses to be tested. The review of literature should be pertinent to the problem. The specific questions to be addressed in the study should also be described. The objective of the study should be discussed in view of the latest references.

Materials And Methods

They should be described with sufficient detail to allow others to replicate and build on published results. New methods and protocols should be described in detail while well-established methods can be briefly described and appropriately cited. Give the name and version of any software used and make clear whether computer code used is available. Include any pre-registration codes. Where applicable, authors are required to disclose in this section details of how GenAI has been used in the paper (e.g., to generate text, data or graphics or assist in study design or data collection, analysis or interpretation).

Results

Provide a concise and precise description of the experimental results, their interpretation, as well as the experimental conclusions that can be drawn. The result should be presented in tabular form and graphs when feasible but not both. The color figures and plates are printed only under exceptional circumstances when the editor-in-chief decides that the information would be lost if reproduced in black and white. Mean results with the relevant standard errors should be presented rather than detailed data. The data should be so arranged that the tables would fit in the normal layout of the page. Self-explanatory tables should be typed on separate sheets and carry appropriate titles. Discussion should consider the results in relation to any hypotheses advanced in the introduction. This may include an evaluation of the methodology and of the relationship of new information to the knowledge in that field.

Discussion

Authors should discuss the results and how they can be interpreted in perspective of previous studies and of the working hypotheses. The findings and their implications should be discussed in the broadest context possible and limitations of the work highlighted. Future research directions may also be mentioned. This section may be combined with Results.

Acknowledgement

All people who have made a genuine contribution and who endorse the data and conclusion(s) may be included. Authors are responsible for obtaining written permission to use any copyrighted text and/or illustration.

Conclusions

This section is not mandatory but can be added to the manuscript if the discussion is unusually long or complex.

Funding

All sources of funding of the study should be disclosed. Clearly indicate grants that you have received in support of your research work and if you received funds to cover publication costs.

Conflicts of Interest

Authors must identify and declare any personal circumstances or interest that may be perceived as influencing the representation or interpretation of reported research results. If there is no conflict of interest, please state “The authors declare no conflict of interest.” Any role of the funding sponsors in the choice of research project; design of the study; in the collection, analyses or interpretation of data; in the writing of the manuscript; or in the decision to publish the results must be declared in this section.
