Forum Geometricorum

http://forumgeom.fau.edu/index.html

FORUM GEOMETRICORUM, a freely accessible electronic journal on classical
euclidean geometry and related areas, aims at bringing to a wide,
international readership the beauty, elegance, and usefulness of
elementary geometry, in research and in teaching. PAPERS ARE PUBLISHED IN
ENGLISH ONLY, freely downloadable in postscript and pdf formats. The
journal focuses on concrete but challenging problems of euclidean geometry
and related areas, that can be conducted by mathematicians, professional
and amateur alike. Papers will feature the long and interesting history of
the subject.  We shall also strive to incorporate beautiful illustrations
made possible by contemporary technology. In this way, the editors of
Forum Geometricorum intend to influence in a profoundly positive way the
instructions of geometry, and mathematics in general, up to the college
level. We sincerely hope that participation in this forum, as readers,
authors, and editors, will make teachers better scholars, and scholars
better teachers. 

FORUM GEOMETRICORUM covers the following areas listed in the Mathematics
Subject Classification 2000: 

Primary: 51Mxx, 51Nxx, 51Axx, 51-02,03,04.
Secondary: 11D04,09,25,41,99  15-XX  01-XX.

We welcome submissions of papers of the following types:

   1. LONG ARTICLES on themes and problems in elementary
geometry and related areas. Articles should be mainly
mathematical and discussions on pedagogical issues should be
tangential but constructive.

   2. SHORT NOTES on interesting problems, new insights on
old theorems, and the uses of dynamic softwares on
ruler-and-compass constructions. The quality of a short note
should be comparable to those published in the American
Mathematical Monthly.

   3. LETTERS to the EDITORS offering constructive
criticisms on papers published in Forum Geometricorum,
especially relevant bibliographical (and biographical)
informations that escape the attentions of authors,
referees, and editors.
