Expositiones Mathematicae publishes articles in English, French or German in all branches of mathematics under the headings ''Main Articles'' and ''Mathematical Notes'':

Main Articles: These may be (I) expository essays, (II) surveys, (III) original research articles, (IV) historical studies concerning 19th and 20th century mathematics.

Mathematical Notes: These are shorter articles containing new results, new proofs of known theorems or novel points of view.

Our aim is to publish papers of interest to a wide mathematical audience. Our main interest is in expository articles that make high-level research results more widely accessible. In general, material that presents undergraduate-level mathematics is not appropriate for Expositiones Mathematicae.

Main articles must be written in such a way that a graduate-level research student interested in the topic of the paper can read them profitably. When the topic is quite specialized, or the main focus is a narrow research result, the paper is probably not appropriate for this journal.

Mathematical notes can be more focused than main articles. They should address an important mathematical question with reasonably broad appeal. Elementary solutions of elementary problems are typically not appropriate. Neither are overly technical papers, which should best be submitted to a specialized research journal.

Clarity of exposition, accuracy of details and the relevance and interest of the subject matter will be the decisive factors in our acceptance of an article for publication.

All papers are refereed.
