Testimonials from Authors
Highest Quality of Copyediting and Typesetting
“Let me say that after some 44 years of publishing mathematical work, this is the very first time that I experienced such a pleasurable collaboration with editorial staff. Your changes are very reasonable and communicated very clearly and in a most friendly manner. I do like the citation style that you suggest (recently I was confronted with a similar attempt, but that one destroyed the structure of my sentences, unlike your case).”
Rainer Löwen
Technische Universität Braunschweig
“[The copyediting] was the highest quality I ever experienced as an author.”
Liran Shaul
Ben Gurion University of the Negev
“I’ve had papers published by many different journals and some are more author-friendly than others, but I have been extremely impressed with every aspect of the handling of my manuscript at G&T — from the thorough review process and editorial board member comments through production of the manuscript and opportunities to make corrections to last minute typos that had escaped me before. I’m so grateful for all your work in making the production of the most accurate version possible with such care. Thank you!”
Paul Feehan
Rutgers University
“The copy editor did a superb job, congratulations. I was amazed to see how they improved the bibliography; from now on I will follow their format, which should become the standard.”
Michel Waldschmidt
Sorbonne Université
“I really appreciate the quality of the editorial and typesetting work! I know the difficulties of the job and highly value when it is done professionally. If such standards apply to all MSP journals, I should try submitting my future work to other ones. The truth is that the quality is really fantastic!”
Wadim Zudilin
Radboud University Nijmegen
“Thank you for what you have done for our paper. I am touched by your seriousness and responsibility. Our paper has become more beautiful under your modifications. Thanks again.”
Yi Zhang
Lanzhou University
“Please let me say that the typesetters did a fantastic job: this is by far the best typesetting work that we have ever seen.”
Salvatore Federico
University of Calgary
“We are entirely satisfied with the revisions you have made. In fact, we were thoroughly impressed by the quality of work you have done on our paper. We are very grateful to your team for that.”
Eyal Goren
McGill University
“We would like to thank the editor for the precise and detailed work done, which in all points improves the article.”
Dan Abramovich
Brown University
“Thanks for your nice work! With most other publishers we have a lot of work after proof to correct the mistakes they introduced. Here I feel that the text has been improved and value added.”
Nils Ackermann
Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México
“The page proofs that I received show more careful and thoughtful attention to detail than I have ever seen in any journal. It was really gratifying to see this.”
Adebisi Agboola
University of California, Santa Barbara
“I want to congratulate the person who copyedited my paper, as I have not seen this level of careful reading in years. Thank you very much for your help!”
Ioan Bejenaru
University of California, San Diego
“Thanks again for the very nice work, it looks really good. There are so many little improvements, for example the ‘[[’ which have become a compound symbol which is much more aesthetically pleasing, as well as the shortening some of the overly wide exact sequences in the diagrams. There are probably a lot more little details we might not even have noticed, but we sincerely appreciate the nice work. Thanks a lot.”
Oliver Braunling
Universität Bonn
“The layout of the paper and the proofs are superb: thank you for this.”
Colin Bushnell
King’s College London
“Let me mention that our experience with PJM was terrific from start to finish, so kudos to you and your team.”
David S. Dummit
University of Vermont
“The galleys are beautiful. Thanks to you and the staff at the Pacific Journal.”
Craig R. Guilbault
University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee
“Overall, it is impressive to see the care with which the manuscript was copyedited, and in many cases the changes made resolve a debate as to word choice when writing the paper. Thank you very much for taking such care of our manuscript.”
Steve Hurder
University of Illinois at Chicago
“Thanks a lot for a great and thorough copyediting job! I hope to remember to apply some stylistic things we learned from you in future writings.”
Svetlana Jitomirskaya
University of California, Irvine
“You have done an incredible job not only rewording some of the awkward phrases we had in our paper, but also realigning display equations to make them fit in spaces we were unable to achieve. It is a pleasure to see such fine craftsmanship.”
Jeremy LeCrone
University of Richmond
“Thank you for an excellent typeset article and for your informed corrections!”
Cris Poor
Fordham University
“APDE really is a wonderful journal. In view of the present context of academic publishing, I like its low-cost policy very much. I was also struck by the quality of the proofs of the articles I published there, which was significantly higher than in most journals I am used to.”
Nicolas Rougerie
Université Grenoble Alpes & CNRS
“Thank you very much for your fantastic copy-editing. We have never experienced such attention to detail.”
Dominik Schröder
ETH Zürich
“The changes make the paper look more beautiful. It is rather rare these days that journals add as much value to a paper as PJM does. I appreciate it very much and thank you for that. Perhaps it is good evidence that academic publishing houses really do add more value than those that are primarily ‘commercial’. It makes me more likely to submit other work to the PJM and to encourage others to do that too. Thanks for your good work.”
Paul Smith
University of Washington
“The page proofs of our article were perfect — no corrections. Further, we approve the various minor changes made to the original manuscript, as described in your comments in the margins. Thanks for doing such a splendid job!”
David Steigmann
University of California at Berkeley
“Thank you very much for these proofs and thank you for the fantastically careful and thorough job that you at MSP have done — I have not had such a good experience in a very long time.”
Shaun Stevens
University of East Anglia
“I want to say how impressed I was by the proofs. They were thorough and mathematically informed.”
Katharine Turner
Australian National University
“Thank you very much once again for your excellent job. I must say that nowadays it is very rare to find a journal employing a competent editor to revise the papers.”
Angelo Vistoli
Scuola Normale Superiore
“I read the proofs carefully. I think the changes you made are necessary. The paper is more readable now. Thank you for your excellent work!”
Kaizhi Wang
Shanghai Jiao Tong University
“The copyediting is the best compared to any other journal I know.”
Sarah Witherspoon
Texas A&M University
“I have recently published two applied mathematical modeling papers with my students in Involve and it is a great venue for the publication of these papers. The text and figures appearing in their final versions are of the highest quality due in large part to the efforts of Elizabeth Weaver and her production staff.”
David Wollkind
Washington State University
“I have checked the proof and seen that my article was typeset nearly perfectly. I am very thankful for the outstanding superb reading and correcting job.”
Shunsuke Yamana
Kyoto University
“Thank you for your kind help and wonderful work on the proof of our paper. We are very happy with this version.”
