References should be placed at the end of the paper, arranged and numbered in alphabetical order of the author's names. Titles of journals should be abbreviated as in Mathematical Reviews. In the text, reference numbers should be enclosed in square.

A reference to an article should give the author(s), title of article, short title of periodical (in italics), series number (if any), volume number, year, and the beginning and end pages of the paper; e.g. [2] R. Guralnick, T. Pentilla, C. E. Praeger, and J. Saxl, Finite linear groups, Proc. London Math. Soc. (3) 78 (1999), 167-214. A reference to a book should give the author(s), title (in italics), edition, publisher, year of publication; e.g. [1] P. T. Johnstone, Stone Spaces, Cambridge Studies in Advanced Math. no. 3 (Cambridge University Press, 1982).
