How to Shorten the Paper
1 1. Remember: you are writing for an expert. Cross out all that is trivial or routine. 2 3 2. Avoid repetition: do not repeat the assumptions of a theorem at the beginning of its proof, or a complicated conclusion at the end of the proof. Do not repeat the assumptionos of a previous theorem in the statement of a next one (instand, write e.g."Under the hypotheses of Theorem 1 with f replaced by g,....."). Do not repeat the same formula -- use a label instead. 4 5 3. Check all formulas: is each of them necessary?
We denote by $\mathbb{R}$ the set of all real numbers. We have the following lemma. The following lemma will be useful. ...... the following inequality is satisfied:
