Hardy–Ramanujan Journal
journal
The Hardy–Ramanujan Journal is a mathematics journal covering prime numbers, Diophantine equations, and transcendental numbers. It is named for G. H. Hardy and Srinivasa Ramanujan. Together with the Ramanujan Journal and the Journal of the Ramanujan Mathematical Society, it is one of three journals named after Ramanujan.
It was established in 1978 by R. Balasubramanian and K. Ramachandra and is published once a year on Ramanujan's birthday December 22. It is indexed in MathSciNet.
Both Balasubramanian and Ramachandra are respected mathematicians and accomplished a great deal in the field of mathematics. They both also focused their mathematical careers on number theory. Most importantly, they were both inspired by Srinivasa Ramanujan, which led them to the creation of the Hardy–Ramanujan Journal. Before Ramachandra's death, the two would publish a new journal almost every year on Ramanujan's birthday, December 22. However, after that time a decision was made to continue the journal by a new team of editors.

Why this record matters
“Hardy–Ramanujan Journal” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Hardy, Ramanujan and Journal provides the most credible route into that argument.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 24, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q16252179. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1978.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
