\chapter{The \cls{amsart} and \cls{amsbook} document classes} \section{Shared features} \subsection{Intended use} The intended use of the \cls{amsart} and \cls{amsbook} document classes is for articles and books submitted for publication to the American Mathematical Society. Detailed information/instructions about the electronic submission process can be found in \booktitle{Instructions for preparing electronic manuscripts---\amslatex/} \cite{author-guidelines}. \subsection{Variant versions of automatically generated text} If the base language of an article is some language other than English, the user may wish to change some pieces of text that are generated automatically. To change ``Abstract'' to ``R\'esum\'e'', use \cn{renewcommand} to redefine \cn{abstractname}: \begin{verbatim} \renewcommand{\abstractname}{R\'esum\'e} \end{verbatim} The user can change the following in the same way: \begin{verbatim} \abstractname Abstract \partname Part \indexname Index \figurename Figure \tablename Table \proofname Proof \refname References \appendixname Appendix \tocname Contents \end{verbatim} This also allows the user to substitute, e.g., ``Diagram'' instead of ``Figure'' for the labels of figure environments. In the \cls{amsbook} style, there are some additional names available for changing: \begin{verbatim} \chaptername Chapter \listfigurename List of Figures \listtablename List of Tables \bibname Bibliography \end{verbatim} (The environment \env{thebibliography} uses \cn{bibname} in the \cls{amsbook} style, and \cn{refname} in the \cls{amsart} style.) \subsection{Size-changing commands} In the AMS document classes the range of typesize changing commands is filled out to eleven: five large\slash huge commands and five small\slash tiny commands, in addition to \cn{normalsize}. Following the conventions of the large\slash huge commands, the small\slash tiny commands are \cn{small}, \cn{Small}, \cn{SMALL}, \cn{tiny}, \cn{Tiny}, and the corresponding sizes (for a main document size of 10pt) are 9, 8, 7, 6, 5. (Although the capitalization of the command names suggests that there should actually be thirteen---adding \cn{TINY} and \cn{HUGE}---they are conservatively omitted for the time being in the absence of evidence that a real need for them exists. In practice, the \latex/ command \cn{fontsize} is likely to be needed anyway for obtaining extreme font sizes, because of the greater control and flexibility it provides.) Note that this means \cn{tiny}, which formerly produced 5-point type, now produces 6-point. This seems to be unavoidable if the naming conventions are to be followed. In compatibility mode \cn{tiny} is equated to \cn{Tiny}, leaving no dedicated command for the 6-point size; but that was the situation in version 1.1 anyway. The AMS document classes also provide a couple of \emph{relative} size-changing commands, with the obvious names of \cn{larger} and \cn{smaller}. These change the font size to the next larger or smaller size in a progression that is defined by the document class. The AMS classes use a progression that matches the standard \tex/ magstep progression, to ensure font availability at the various sizes even for users who don't have scalable font capabilities (PostScript, TrueType, etc.\@) on their system. The \cn{larger} and \cn{smaller} commands take an optional argument to specify increasing or decreasing by more steps: |\larger[3]| means go up three sizes from the current font size. \subsection{Package options} The AMS document classes support the following options. \begin{description} \item[\opt{letterpaper}] Set paper size to US letter (8.5 x 11 inches). \item[\opt{legalpaper}] Set paper size to US legal (8.5 x 14 inches). \item[\opt{a4paper}] Set paper size to A4 (210 x 297 mm). \item[\opt{landscape}] Switch orientation (swap paper height and width). \item[\opt{portrait}] Normal orientation. \item[\opt{oneside}] Format for one-sided printing (uniform margins and running heads). \item[\opt{twoside}] Format for two-sided printing (margins and running heads vary on left-hand and right-hand pages). \item[\opt{draft}] Mark overlong lines by black boxes. \item[\opt{final}] Suppress black boxes. \item[\opt{nomath}] Don't load the \pkg{amstex} package. \item[\opt{noamsfonts}] Don't require the AMSFonts font set. \item[\opt{psamsfonts}] Use variant font definitions for the AMSFonts font set (see \secref{usepackage}) \item[\opt{leqno}] (default) Place equation numbers on the left. \item[\opt{reqno}] Place equation numbers on the right. \item[\opt{tbtags}] `Top-or-bottom tags': For a split equation, place equation numbers level with the last (resp.\ first) line, if numbers are on the right (resp.\ left). \item[\opt{centertags}] (default) For a split equation, place equation numbers vertically centered on the total height of the equation. \item[\opt{fleqn}] Position equations at a fixed indent from the left margin rather than centered in the text column. This option is typically inherited from the documentclass, and so doesn't need to be specified explicitly in the \cn{usepackage} command. \item[\opt{10pt},\opt{8pt},\opt{9pt},\opt{11pt},\opt{12pt}] Specify the main point size for the document. \end{description} \section{\cls{amsart}} \subsection{Top matter} We use the term ``top matter'' for the information found at the beginning of an article, such as the title, author, addresses, and abstract. Compared to the standard \cls{article} document class, the \cls{amsart} document class has a significantly expanded top matter section. \latex/'s \cls{article} style provides \cn{title}, \cn{author}, \cn{thanks}, \cn{date}, and an \env{abstract} environment. The complete list of top matter commands provided by the \cls{amsart} style is: \begin{ctab}{@{\hspace{1em}}lll} \cn{title}& \cn{keywords}& \cn{author}\\ \cn{subjclass}& \cn{address}& \cn{curraddr}\\ \cn{email}& \cn{translator}& \cn{dedicatory}\\ \cn{thanks}& \cn{date}\\ \end{ctab} All of these commands should precede the \cn{maketitle} command. If the \env{abstract} environment is used, it should follow immediately after \cn{maketitle}. The address, current address, e-mail address, and translator information print at the end of the document; the key words, subject classification, and thanks information print as footnotes at the bottom of the first page of the document. An \cn{author} command should be used for each individual author, when a paper has multiple authors. Things like \cn{address}, \cn{curraddr}, \cn{email}, and \cn{thanks} that pertain only to one author should be placed after the \cn{author} command that they go with (and before any other \cn{author} commands). The AMS custom is to list author names in alphabetical order. (See \textbf{Author names and addresses} in section \ref{s:variations} for further details.) In giving an e-mail address remember that |@|\index{"@@\texttt{@@} (at sign)} characters should be doubled in order for them to print properly. \subsection{Running heads} Running heads on odd-numbered pages (right-hand pages) in the \cls{amsart} style contain the text of the article title, and on even-numbered pages they contain the author's name. If the title is too long to fit within the page width, a shorter version for the running head text can be specified with a square-bracket option of the \cn{title} command: \begin{verbatim} \title[Short Version Here]{Long Version of the Title Here,\\ Perhaps with Multiple Lines} \end{verbatim} The \cn{author} command also has the same kind of square-bracket option. \section{\cls{amsbook}} The \cls{amsbook} style has much in common with the \cls{amsart} style; everything in the previous sections about \cls{amsart} holds true for \cls{amsbook}, excepting some details such as the placement of author addresses and other top matter information. \subsection{Front matter} The ``top matter'' information for a book (more commonly called the front matter, when discussing a book) is usually specially made up on a title page, with the format varying widely from book to book. In the \cls{amsbook} design \cn{maketitle} produces a simple title page with the title and author; subject classification numbers, abstract, or key words, if supplied, will print on the following page. \subsection{Running heads} Right-hand running heads in the \cls{amsbook} style contain the text of the current section heading; left-hand running heads contain the current chapter title. For special chapters such as a preface or bibliography that don't have sections, the right running head will be the same as the left. Square-bracket options can be used, as normal, to change the text used for running heads. \section{Variations from standard \latex/}\label{s:variations} Variations from standard \latex/ in the \cls{amsart} and \cls{amsbook} document classes that are simple additions (like |\subjclass| for subject classification numbers) will not be pointed out in this section. However, a couple of variations that involve contradictions of statements in the \latex/ manual need to be noted. \subsection{Starred forms of sectioning commands} In the \cls{amsart} and \cls{amsbook} document classes starred forms of the \cn{chapter} and \cn{section} commands produce a table of contents entry. This is a variation from standard \latex/ (see the \latex/ manual, \S C.3.1), but more in keeping with usual publishing practice. \subsection{Author names and addresses} The standard \latex/ format for specifying the names and addresses of a document's authors is this: \begin{verbatim} \author{First Author\\Address, Line 1\\Address, Line 2 \and Second Author\\Address, Line 1\\Address, Line 2} \end{verbatim} In the \cls{amsart} and \cls{amsbook} document classes there is a separate \cn{address} command for addresses, and the author names and addresses are specified individually like all the other elements of the top matter: \begin{verbatim} \author{First Author} \address{Address, Line 1\\Address, Line 2} ... \author{Second Author} \address{Address, Line 1\\Address, Line 2} \end{verbatim} Addresses (including current address and e-mail address) will be associated with the nearest preceding \cn{author} command to determine where they should be printed. \subsection{The \cn{appendix} command} The standard \latex/ usage for the \cn{appendix} command is rather peculiar and counter-intuitive. In the \cls{amsbook} document class the \cn{appendix} command has its natural meaning: it is used in place of \cn{chapter}, after the \cn{backmatter} command. In other words, to produce two appendices, the document structure would be \begin{verbatim} ... \backmatter \appendix{Title of first appendix} Text text ... ... \appendix{Title of second appendix} Text text ... ... \end{verbatim} \subsection{The \cn{tiny} command} The \cn{amsart} and \cls{amsbook} document classes provide a slightly wider range of font size changing commands than most document classes, and for the most part this involves no deviation from \latex/ conventions, but the \cn{tiny} command produces 6pt type instead of 5pt (when the main font size of the document is 10pt). If you really need the 5pt size for some reason, you should use \cn{Tiny} instead of \cn{tiny} to get it. \chapter{Bibliography styles for use with \bibtex/} The \amslatex/ distribution includes two \bibtex/ bibliography styles, \bst{amsplain} and \bst{amsalpha}, analogous to the standard \latex/ \fn{plain} and \fn{alpha} bibliography styles. In the AMS styles an extra field ``language'' is provided, for giving the original language of a reference, as an indication to the reader that the title, author name, and so on are translated. Also included is a file \fn{mrabbrev.bib} containing standardized abbreviations used by \journalname{Mathematical Reviews} for journal names in the mathematical sciences and related fields. The full list is too big to be handled by most current versions of \bibtex/, but authors can use it as a resource, extracting abbreviations for the journals that they cite in their personal bibliography database and adding them to their database. \endinput
