Before Comptes Rendus Mathématique
The electronic journal Comptes Rendus Mathématique is one of the heirs of the Comptes Rendus hebdomadaires des séances de l'Académie des Sciences printed journal, founded in 1835 by Arago. A single, multidisciplinary journal for 130 years, Comptes Rendus was subdivided in 1966 into several series to better reflect the increasing specialization of scientific activity.
In addition to the original series, the current CR Mathématique has several ancestors:
- Comptes rendus hebdomadaires des séances de l'Académie des sciences. Série A - Sciences mathématiques (1966-1980)
- Comptes rendus de l'Académie des sciences. Série I - Mathématique (1981-1996)
- Comptes rendus Mathématique (since 1996)
