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》的讀者期望文章具有高水準的闡述；他們尋找能夠提供信息、激勵、挑戰、啟發甚至娛樂的文章。月刊文章旨在供讀者閱讀、欣賞和討論，而不僅僅是存檔。文章可能是對舊結果或新結果的闡述、歷史或傳記文章、推測或權威處理、廣泛的發展或對單一應用的探索。新穎性和普遍性遠不如闡述的清晰度和廣泛的吸引力重要。鼓勵使用適當的圖形、圖表和照片。

筆記簡短、重點突出，可能不拘形式。它們通常是提供舊定理的新證明、熟悉主題的新穎呈現或對單個問題的熱烈討論的珍寶。

文章或筆記的摘要應吸引潛在讀者探索論文的主題，并應向讀者說明為什么這篇論文有趣且重要。摘要應突出論文的概念，而不是總結機制。摘要是論文的第一印象，而不是論文的技術摘要。不鼓勵過度使用符號，因為它會限制 MAA 廣大讀者的興趣，并會限制文章的可搜索性。

American Mathematical Monthly由Mathematical Association of America出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋MATHEMATICS全領域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細分領域中專業影響力一般，過審相對較易，如果您文章質量佳，選擇此期刊，發表機率較高。平均審稿速度 ，影響因子指數0.4，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
