Scope
Aims, scope and focus
Algebra & Number Theory is published by Mathematical Sciences Publishers and is in Zone 2 of Mathematics in the CAS Journal Ranking (2025 upgraded edition). By OpenAlex counts of its recent articles, its largest topics are Algebraic Geometry and Number Theory, Advanced Algebra and Geometry and Algebraic structures and combinatorial models, together about 49.7% of its articles. Its main subfields are Algebra and Number Theory. (generated from OpenAlex topic counts and CAS ranking data)
ANT’s inclusive definition of algebra and number theory allows it to print research covering a wide range of subtopics, including algebraic and arithmetic geometry. ANT publishes high-quality articles of interest to a broad readership, at a level surpassing all but the top four or five mathematics journals. It exists in both print and electronic forms. The policies of ANT are set by the editorial board — a group of working mathematicians — rather than by a profit-oriented company, so they will remain friendly to mathematicians' interests. In particular, they will promote broad dissemination, easy electronic access, and permissive use of content to the greatest extent compatible with survival of the journal. All electronic content becomes free and open access 5 years after publication.
