The Duke Mathematical Journal is a peer-reviewed mathematics journal published by Duke University Press since 1935 and emphasizing the most active and influential areas of current mathematics, with a 2024 journal impact factor of 2.3（Duke Mathematical Journal，简称 Duke Math. J.）是杜克大学出版社自 1935 年起出版的同行评审数学期刊，着重于当代数学最活跃与最具影响力的领域，2024 年影响因子为 2.3。

Scope

• Publishes original research papers in all branches of mathematics发表数学各分支的原创研究论文。
• The journal does not restrict itself to particular branches and covers areas such as algebra, number theory, geometry and topology该刊未按分支设限，收录代数、数论、几何与拓扑等领域。
• It also covers partial differential equations, probability, mathematical physics, combinatorics and logic亦收录偏微分方程、概率、数学物理、组合与逻辑等方向。
• Submissions must carry 2020 Mathematics Subject Classification numbers and an abstract of no more than 300 words投稿须标注 2020 数学学科分类号，摘要不超过三百词。
• Manuscripts must be typeset in 11-point type with the amsart document class稿件须以 11 磅字号与（amsart）文档类排版。

History

• The first issue appeared in March 1935, published by Duke University Press创刊首期于 1935 年 3 月出版，由杜克大学出版社印行。
• It was founded because American mathematical output surged in the 1920s and the leading journals faced a heavy backlog, creating a need for a new first-rate journal创办动机是二十世纪二十年代美国数学研究产出激增，主要数学刊积压严重，需要一本新的一流期刊分流稿件。
• The university hired J. M. Thomas in 1930 and Leonard Carlitz in 1932 to strengthen the mathematics department in support of the journal为配合办刊，校方于 1930 年聘入 J. M. Thomas、1932 年聘入 Leonard Carlitz 以充实数学系。
• The first managing editor was J. M. Thomas, and the founding editors included Arthur Coble and David V. Widder首任执行主编为 J. M. Thomas，创刊编辑包括 Arthur Coble 与 David V. Widder。
• The name Southern Mathematical Journal was nearly adopted before Duke Mathematical Journal was settled in January 1935刊名曾拟定为 Southern Mathematical Journal，最终于 1935 年 1 月定名为 Duke Mathematical Journal。
• The first paper was Solomon Lefschetz's Chain-deformations in topology, and the journal began as a quarterly before moving to twelve issues a year in 1992 and eighteen issues a year at present创刊首篇论文为 Solomon Lefschetz 的《拓扑中的链变形》（Chain-deformations in topology），该刊起初为季刊，1992 年起改为每年十二期，现为每年十八期。^[1]

Editors

• The managing editors are Hubert L. Bray and Alexander Kiselev, both professors of mathematics at Duke University现任执行主编为 Hubert L. Bray 与 Alexander Kiselev，均为杜克大学数学教授。
• Hubert L. Bray works on differential geometry, geometric analysis and general relativityHubert L. Bray 的研究方向为微分几何、几何分析与广义相对论。
• Alexander Kiselev works on mathematical fluid dynamics and mathematical biologyAlexander Kiselev 的研究方向为数学流体力学与数学生物学。
• The editorial board has 24 editors from the United States, the United Kingdom, Israel, Germany, Switzerland and France编委会由二十四名编辑组成，来自美国、英国、以色列、德国、瑞士与法国。
• The editorial office returned to Duke University in 2018 after more than twenty years at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill编辑部曾设于北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校二十余年，2018 年回归杜克大学。
• No pre-submission enquiry is required, manuscripts are submitted directly through EditFlow, and neither submission fees nor article processing charges are levied该刊不要求投稿前咨询，稿件直接经 EditFlow 系统投稿，不收投稿费与文章处理费。
