Abstract
IT is interesting to notice how largely the English language is used in some Japanese scientific journals. The Tohoku Mathematical Journal accepts contribu tions in English, French, German, Italian or Japanese, but of the thirty-three papers in vol. 39, part 2, no less than twenty-four are in English, and only one is in Japanese. The authors are of decidedly varied nationalities, including ten Americans, nine Japanese, four British, three Chinese, two Germans, and one Russian. The subjects treated belong almost entirely to the domain of pure mathematics, with an unusually large proportion of geometry of various kinds (pure, algebraic and differential). The papers in this Journal are usually very short. We have also received Science Reports of the Tokyo Bunrika Daigaku (Section A, 2, Nos. 31-32), which contain two mathematical papers of greater length, one in English and one in German, both by Japanese authors.
