How to format your references using the Analysis and Mathematical Physics citation style

This is a short guide how to format citations and the bibliography in a manuscript for Analysis and Mathematical Physics. For a complete guide how to prepare your manuscript refer to the journal's instructions to authors.

Using reference management software

Typically you don't format your citations and bibliography by hand. The easiest way is to use a reference manager:

PaperpileThe citation style is built in and you can choose it in Settings > Citation Style or Paperpile > Citation Style in Google Docs.
EndNoteFind the style here: output styles overview
Mendeley, Zotero, Papers, and othersThe style is either built in or you can download a CSL file that is supported by most references management programs.
BibTeXBibTeX syles are usually part of a LaTeX template. Check the instructions to authors if the publisher offers a LaTeX template for this journal.

Journal articles

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

A journal article with 1 author
1.
Hodges, A.: Computer science. Beyond Turing’s machines. Science. 336, 163–164 (2012)
A journal article with 2 authors
1.
Ziauddin, J., Sabatini, D.M.: Microarrays of cells expressing defined cDNAs. Nature. 411, 107–110 (2001)
A journal article with 3 authors
1.
Parker, J.D., Burkepile, D.E., Hay, M.E.: Opposing effects of native and exotic herbivores on plant invasions. Science. 311, 1459–1461 (2006)
A journal article with 4 or more authors
1.
McNamara, C., Zinkernagel, A.S., Macheboeuf, P., Cunningham, M.W., Nizet, V., Ghosh, P.: Coiled-coil irregularities and instabilities in group A Streptococcus M1 are required for virulence. Science. 319, 1405–1408 (2008)

Books and book chapters

Here are examples of references for authored and edited books as well as book chapters.

An authored book
1.
Bradford, R.: Is Shakespeare Any Good? John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, Chichester, UK (2015)
An edited book
1.
Guia, M.J. ed: The Illegal Business of Human Trafficking. Springer International Publishing, Cham (2015)
A chapter in an edited book
1.
Lousame, F.P., Sánchez, E.: A Taxonomy of Collaborative-Based Recommender Systems. In: Castellano, G., Jain, L.C., and Fanelli, A.M. (eds.) Web Personalization in Intelligent Environments. pp. 81–117. Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg (2009)

Web sites

Sometimes references to web sites should appear directly in the text rather than in the bibliography. Refer to the Instructions to authors for Analysis and Mathematical Physics.

Blog post
1.
Carpineti, A.: Lasers And Bubbles Can Create 3D Images In Liquid, https://www.iflscience.com/technology/lasers-and-bubbles-can-create-3d-images-in-liquid/

Reports

This example shows the general structure used for government reports, technical reports, and scientific reports. If you can't locate the report number then it might be better to cite the report as a book. For reports it is usually not individual people that are credited as authors, but a governmental department or agency like "U. S. Food and Drug Administration" or "National Cancer Institute".

Government report
1.
Government Accountability Office: Air Force Bombers: Conventional Capabilities of the B-1B Bomber. U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC (1994)

Theses and dissertations

Theses including Ph.D. dissertations, Master's theses or Bachelor theses follow the basic format outlined below.

Doctoral dissertation
1.
Das, A.: Optimizing symbol timing, frequency spacing, and SNR estimation for communication systems, (2013)

News paper articles

Unlike scholarly journals, news papers do not usually have a volume and issue number. Instead, the full date and page number is required for a correct reference.

New York Times article
1.
Oestreich, J.R.: Move Over, Bach. Handel’s Moving In, (2017)

In-text citations

References should be cited in the text by sequential numbers in square brackets:

This sentence cites one reference [1].
This sentence cites two references [1, 2].
This sentence cites four references [1–4].
