In this sample paper, brief instructions to authors will be interspersed with mathematical text extracted from (purposely unidentified) published papers. For instructions on preparing mathematical text, the author is referred to {\it The Joy of \TeX}, by Michael Spivak \cite{spivak:jot} and {\it \LaTeX{}: A Document Preparation System} by Leslie Lamport. \cite{lamport:latex} \subsection{Top matter} The input format and content of the top matter can be best understood by examining the first part of the sample file \verb+sample.tex+, up through the \verb+\begin{document}+ instruction. The top matter includes both elements that must be input by the author and a few that are provided automatically. The author names and the title that are to appear in the running heads should be input between square brackets as an option to the \verb+\author+ and \verb+\title+ commands, respectively. The full names and title should be used unless they require too much space; in that event, abbreviated forms should be substituted. In the top matter, the title is input in caps and lowercase and will be set that way. The author names should be input in caps and lowercase; they will automatically be set in all caps. For each author an address should be input. Following these addresses, an address for electronic mail should be given, if one exists. Note that no abbreviations are used in addresses, and complete addresses for each author should be entered in the order that names appear on the title page. Addresses are considered part of the top matter but are set at the end of the paper, following the references. Subject classifications (\verb+\subjclass+) and acknowledgments (\verb+\thanks+) are part of the top matter and will appear as footnotes at the bottom of the first page. Use the 1980 Mathematics Subject Classification (1985 Revision) that appears in annual indexes of {\it Mathematical Reviews\/} beginning in 1984. (The two-digit code from the Contents is not sufficient.) Use \verb+\thanks+ for the footnotes that appear on the first page. It is generally desirable not to attach footnote numbers or symbols to titles or author names used as headings. If a footnote applies to only one author then include this information in the footnote. Only one instance of \verb+\thanks+ is permitted in a paper. Multiple ``thanks'' footnotes may be simulated by separating the appropriate parts from one another by \verb+\endgraf+; this will begin a new paragraph in the footnote. Papers published in proceedings of conferences are often abstracts or preliminary versions. In such a case, include the following in the \verb+\thanks+ to appear at the bottom of the first page: ``The final [detailed] version of this paper will be [has been] submitted for publication elsewhere.'' Papers that are to be considered for review by {\it Mathematical Reviews\/} should include the following statement: ``This paper is in final form and no version of it will be submitted for publication elsewhere.'' \subsection{Fonts} The fonts used in this paper are from the Computer Modern family; they should be available to all authors preparing papers with these macros. However, the final copy may be set by the AMS using other fonts. \subsection{A mathematical extract} The mathematical content of this sample paper has been extracted from published papers, with no effort made to retain any mathematical sense. It is intended only to illustrate the recommended manner of input. Mathematical symbols in text should always be input in math mode as illustrated in the following paragraph. A function is invertible in $C(X)$ if it is never zero, and in $C^*(X)$ if it is bounded away from zero. In an arbitrary $A(X)$, of course, there is no such description of invertibility which is independent of the structure of the algebra. Thus in \S 2 we associate to each noninvertible $f\in A(X)$ a $z$-filter $\cal Z (f)$ that is a measure of where $f$ is ``locally'' invertible in $A(X)$. This correspondence extends to one between maximal ideals of $A(X)$ and $z$-ultrafilters on $X$. In \S 3 we use the filters $\cal Z (f)$ to describe the intersection of the free maximal ideals in any algebra $A(X)$. Finally, our main result allows us to introduce the notion of $A(X)$-compactness of which compactness and realcompactness are special cases. In \S 4 we show how the Banach-Stone theorem extends to $A(X)$-compact spaces. \section{Theorems, lemmas, and proofs} Theorems and lemmas are varieties of \verb+theorem+ environments. In this document, a \verb+theorem+ environment called \verb+lemma+ has been created, which is used below. Also, there is a proof, which is in the predefined \verb+pf+ environment. The lemma and proof below illustrate the use of the \verb+enumerate+ environment. \begin{lemma} {Lemma 1} Let $f, g\in A(X)$ and let $E$, $F$ be cozero sets in $X$. \begin{enumerate} \item If $f$ is $E$-regular and $F\subseteq E$, then $f$ is $F$-regular. \item If $f$ is $E$-regular and $F$-regular, then $f$ is $E\cup F$-% regular. \item If $f(x)\ge c>0$ for all $x\in E$, then $f$ is $E$-regular. \end{enumerate} \end{lemma} \begin{pf} \begin{enumerate} \item Obvious. \item Let $h, k\in A(X)$ satisfy $hf|_E=1$ and $kf|_F=1$. Let $w=h+k-fhk$. Then $fw|_{E\cup F}=1$. \item Let $h=\max\{c,f\}$. Then $h|_E=f|_E$ and $h\ge c$. So $0
