Journal Overview

With the formation of the Ramanujan Mathematical Society (RMS) in 1985, the starting of the Journal of the Ramanujan Mathematical Society (JRMS), which was in the offing, was realised in 1986. As one who mooted the idea, K.S. Padmanabhan, then Director of the Ramanujan Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics in Chennai, took charge as the Chief Editor of JRMS. During the five year period of his stint at the helm, Padmanabhan laid a firm foundation, nurturing a vision that JRMS should shape into a high quality journal of international repute, and a signal forum for mathematicians of the country to showcase their research.

JRMS further prospered under the stewardship of subsequent chief editors V. Kannan, V. Kumar Murty, R. Parimala, R. Sujatha and R. Munshi who worked to foster JRMS as one of the most sought after journals for practitioners, especially from India.

The quarterly issues of JRMS are published with punctual regularity by the untiring efforts of Sampathkumar -- the force behind the scene as Managing Editor -- who built the all important infrastructural mechanism to manage the work efficiently.

Perpetuating the wishes of its founding members, JRMS is committed to the upkeep of high academic standards, and the upward trend continues to flourish under the chief editorship of T.S.S.R.K. Rao and the team of serious practitioners serving on its editorial board.
