Manuscripts, written in English, French, or German, and assumed to be in final form, are accepted with the understanding that the same work has not been submitted elsewhere. The corresponding author receives proofs which should be corrected and returned to the Editorial Office within 48 hours of receipt. There are no page charges. Twenty five offprints without covers will be supplied gratis to the corresponding author; additional offprints or covers may be ordered prior to publication at reasonable prices.

Manuscripts should be prepared according to the following rules:

• Abstracts should appear in manuscripts submited to TMNA. The text of manuscripts should begin with an Introduction giving a concise statement of the purpose of the article.
• Submit manuscripts in duplicate, and number each page. Page 1 should contain the title and authors' names. Left running heads contain authors' names with initials, and right running heads contain an abbreviated form of the title of less than 35 characters. Running heads start on page 2. Complete afilliation (names of institutions, addresses, etc.) should be given on the last page of the paper.
• Equations should be typewritten with the number placed in parentheses at the left margin. References to equations should either be in the form ``Eq. 2'' or simply (2).
• Concerning the style, authors should be guided by A Manual for Authors published in 1984 (revised in 1990) by the American Mathematical Society. Documents may be prepared using the `tmna.sty' for AMS-TeX.
• For journal names in the bibliography follow Abbreviations of Names of Serials Reviewed in Mathematical Reviews (Index of Mathematical Papers, vol. 20, pp. J1-J31, AMS, 1988). Cite references in the text by an Arabic number between square brackets as [1] or [2, Theorem 5.1], etc. Private correspondence should not appear in the bibliography. Journal and book references should be given according to the following examples:
1. J. K. HALE and S. N. CHOW, Methods in Bifurcation Theory, Springer-Verlag, 1982.
2. E. N. DANCER, Symmetries, degree, homotopy indices and asymptotically homogeneous problems, Nonlinear Analysis 6 (1982), 667-686.

• postscript file: tmna.ps.

Authors who prepare their manuscripts using TeX will be kindly requested, in case of acceptance, to send a diskette with the source file (or file by electronic mail to tmna@ncu.pl) to the Editorial Office in order to speed up publication.
