Mathematical Reviews® Tools

Mathematics Subject Classification

Search the Mathematics Subject Classification (MSC) scheme. This scheme, developed by the two reviewing databases, Mathematical Reviews® (MR) and Zentralblatt MATH (Zbl), is used by them to classify book and article listings.

Free MathSciNet® Searches

The following MathSciNet® searches are available without a subscription:

  • Search by MSC for bibliographic listings and reviews that have appeared in the past six months.
  • Determine which journals have been listed in the past six weeks.
  • Find the collaboration distance between any two authors in the MR database.
  • Classify your articles using the MSC scheme.

Constructing Links to MathSciNet®

Authors and publishers can add a permanent link to the MathSciNet® entry for each reference in a published paper using a standard format and tools provided free of charge by the American Mathematical Society. The Society provides several tools for constructing these links. We encourage the community to make a commitment to add these links to all new papers and request that publishers include links in all electronic literature.

Create standard references with links to MathSciNet®. The reference can be typed or copied and pasted into this tool.

Use a simple interactive form to find standardized bibliographic data and direct links that may be inserted in web-aware environments.

Perform batch queries for bibliographic data.

Create permanent links to MathSciNet® listings or to authors in the MR database.
