1991 Mathematics Subject Classification
This is version 1.1 (January 1995) of a hypertext version of the MSC,
prepared by Chris Eilbeck
of Heriot-Watt
University, Edinburgh. If you have any comments regarding this
implementation, please email the author (chris@ma.hw.ac.uk), quoting
the version number. And in case you're wondering, he didn't type in
all the 2647 hyperlinks himself, he wrote a Perl programme to
process the index automatically.
Those readers situated in North America may find it quicker to use
the version at
http://e-math.ams.org/web/mr/MSC/MSC.html, though currently this
site is running version 1.0.
An introduction to the current (1991)
MSC, and instructions on how to use it,
are available.
