General Requirements. The Journal of Operator Theory endevours to publish significant articles in all areas of operator theory, operator algebras and closely related domains. All accepted manuscripts are carefully peer-reviewed. A manuscript submitted for publication must:
Submission. To
submit a manuscript an author should use the Electronic Manager
EditFlow at the address
Editorial Process.
The refereeing process of a manuscript
is the sole responsibility of the Editor
to which it was submitted. Communication concerning this part of the
editorial process should
be addressed only to that Editor. After acceptance and until the
publication, the editorial process
becomes the responsibility of the Editorial Office. Immediately after
acceptance, authors should upload all the required
electronic
files (AMS-LaTeX source file in jotart.cls style, graphic files, etc.)
to EditFlow or e-mail them to
jot@theta.ro for production reasons.
After technical editing and preliminary proofreading the files,
authors will receive galley proofs for final corrections and
modifications.
Communication.
In case of multiple authors, a corresponding author should be indicated. All
communication will be done with the corresponding author. It is the author
responsibility to inform immediately any change of address and, especially,
e-mail address. In case the source file in JOT style is not received by the
editorial office within two weeks from the date of acceptance, a reminder
will be e-mailed to the corresponding author. If no answer is received
within two more weeks, the editor that communicated the manuscript will be
informed and the manuscript will be removed from the list of accepted
manuscripts. Any further reconsideration of the manuscript will be
considered a resubmission.
Style. Authors of papers submitted
for publication should strive for expository clarity and good literary
style. Typesetting the manuscript using AMS-LaTeX at 12 point is
recommendable. Footnotes should be avoided.
Items required:
Figures
and Diagrams.
Figures and diagrams should be preferably drawn in one of the packages
available in AMS-LaTeX; if this is not possible, then they can be embedded
as exterior files, (optional) in Encapsulated PostScript
(EPS) format and (mandatory) Portable Document Format
(PDF) and e-mailed as attached files. You should not use the
package psfrag; all characters should be contained
in the EPS and PDF files. Color figures, if provided, will be
printed black-and-white only, but they will appear in color in the
electronic files.
AMS-LaTeX File
Processing.
Papers accepted for publication in the Journal of
Operator Theory should be prepared in AMS-LaTeX and use the style file
jotart.cls.
When coding your AMS-LaTeX file, please bear in mind the following:
Preparation of the electronic file.
Authors should process their electronic files using the style
file jotart.cls
of the Journal of Operator Theory, prior to sending these to the Editorial
Office in Bucharest. All necessary files, including
instructions and examples,
can be downloaded from this site (click on the button
Downloads from the left
panel), or e-mailed by request.
Manuscript Alteration.
The PDF file of the manuscript
accepted for publication is provided by the Editor to the Editorial Office
in Bucharest through EditFlow.
This copy represents the paper to be published. Subsequent
alteration of the manuscript exceeding 4% in volume will be considered
as a revision and requires at least a confirmation from the communicating
editor. Alterations of the electronic file (if any), compared to the accepted
manuscript, should refer only to typos or small changes of presentation.
Any change referring to mathematical content, however small, will be
subjected to the editor's approval.
File Proofreading. As soon as the processing of the file corresponding
to a paper will be accomplished, the proofs will be sent to the
corresponding
author by e-mail, as an attached PDF file; it is supposed that the
corresponding author will then e-mail us back a list with her/his corrections and
comments within one week. In case of considerable
delay of receiving the
authors' corrections, the article will be published as it is.
Modifications
During Proofreading. Modifications
(that is, deleting and/or inserting of text, with respect to the accepted
manuscript) during proofreading are admitted within 4% of the volume of
the accepted manuscript if the mathematical content is not significantly
changed. Out of this range, any modification will be considered
as a revision of the manuscript and will require a confirmation from the
communicating Editor. A Note Added in Proof
of at most two printed pages is accepted and is not considered as a
modification.
Charges.
It is the journal policy that there are no page charges
for published articles.
Offprints.
Authors will receive the electronic PDF files, for personal
use only, but no printed offprints. These files cannot be posted on any
other web page, except the official online site of the journal.
Last update July 29th, 2021.
https://ef.msp.org/submit/jot
Authors are supposed to choose one of the
editors that will be in charge with the editorial process, fill all the
information required by EditFlow and upload the PDF file of the manuscript.
The submission of a paper carries
with it the author's assurance that it has not been copyrighted, published,
or submitted for publication elsewhere. Manuscripts can be written in
English
(preferable), French, or German. Preference will be given to manuscripts
larger than 10 typewritten pages of high scientific quality.
