  • Addendum/Erratum for Elliptic Curves 2006
    Addendum/Erratum for Elliptic Curves 2006 J.S. Milne Last revised September 7, 2016. In the blurb and introduction, I should have noted that the group is commutative. p28. The third cubic curve should be `.R;Q/ `.P;Q R/ `.PQ;O/ 0 C D (Dmitriy Zanin). p36. In the definition of kŒC p, the condition on h should be h p (Jochen Gerhard). … p39. In the definition of a regular map between projective plane curves, am should read a2 (Rankeya Datta). p100, 3.23b. The sign is wrong: it should read 4d c2 0. As PENG Bo pointed out to me, I forgot to include the proof. Here it is. Let X 2 c X d det.X n˛ T E/: C 0 C 0 D j ` By linear algebra, we see that c nc and d n2d. On substituting m for X in the equality, we 0 D 0 D find that m2 cmn n2d det.m n˛ T E/: C C D j ` According to Proposition 3.22, the right hand side equals the degree of mid n˛.

  • ONIX DOI Metadata for Serial Articles (Version 1.1)
    ONIX DOI METADATA FOR SERIAL ARTICLES Message specification, Version 1.1, March 2007 This document specifies an ONIX subset with a number of newly-defined elements intended to provide a communication format for metadata related to the registration of DOIs for serial articles. The specification allows for the registration of a DOI that is assigned to a serial article-as-work or a DOI that is assigned to a serial article-as-manifestation, ie it gives the option of registering one DOI only, regardless of the different forms – paper or electronic – in which it appears, or of registering separate DOIs for each form. The document also includes a message header and a pair of “start of message” and “end of message” elements. Please see ONIX for Books – Product Information Message – XML Message Specification for details of other ONIX XML conventions. An ONIX Serial Article DOI Registration message must carry either Serial Article Work records only or Serial Article Manifestation records only. Different message names are used in each case. Throughout the document, text in dark red is used to indicate content that applies only to serial- articles-as-works; text in blue-green is used to indicate content that applies only to serial-articles-as- manifestations; text in light red indicates areas where there are outstanding queries or uncertainties. Pages 33 and 34 show a simple example of an ONIX Serial Article DOI Registration message carrying a single Serial Article Work record. This ONIX format was developed in association with the mEDRA Project, supported in its initial stages by the eContent programme of the European Union, and has been extended to meet additional requirements specified by Nielsen BookData, OPOCE (The Office for Official Publications of the European Communities) and MVB(Marketing- und Verlagsservice des Buchhandels GmbH).

I was seeking guidance on copyright and permissions. Very useful despite this being a tricky issue." We continue to support the widest possible access to the scientific, scholarly and medical literature through innovative and creative publishing policy and practice, founded on the highest standards of peer review. Taylor & Francis, and the scholarly and professional associations with whom we work, are committed to good stewardship of the scholarly record, and to managing authors’ Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) as these are associated with their article. Such articles are normally the primary written report of the results of a scientific research project. Such research may be supported by funding from Government or commercial sources. It may be conducted by a single research group from a single institution, or may be the outcome of collaborative working between institutions on a global scale. Such research in its written form, has been submitted for consideration to a Taylor & Francis journal, and is then subject to that journals rigorous peer review. If acceptable after revision in the light of referees' comments, then that research is published in its final and definitive form, for the first time, by Taylor & Francis in a Taylor & Francis journal, or in a journal published by Taylor & Francis on behalf of a scholarly or professional association.
