Experimental Mathematics

Journal Title：Experimental Mathematics

Experimental Mathematics publishes original papers featuring formal results inspired by experimentation, conjectures suggested by experiments, and data supporting significant hypotheses.

Experiment has always been, and increasingly is, an important method of mathematical discovery. (Gauss declared that his way of arriving at mathematical truths was "through systematic experimentation.") Yet this tends to be concealed by the tradition of presenting only elegant, fully developed, and rigorous results.

Experimental Mathematics was founded in the belief that theory and experiment feed on each other, and that the mathematical community stands to benefit from a more complete exposure to the experimental process. The early sharing of insights increases the possibility that they will lead to theorems: An interesting conjecture is often formulated by a researcher who lacks the techniques to formalize a proof, while those who have the techniques at their fingertips have been looking elsewhere. Even when the person who had the initial insight goes on to find a proof, a discussion of the heuristic process can be of help, or at least of interest, to other researchers. There is value not only in the discovery itself, but also in the road that leads to it.

《实验数学》发表原创论文，内容包括实验启发的正式结果、实验提出的猜想以及支持重要假设的数据。

实验一直是数学发现的重要方法，而且越来越重要。（高斯宣称他得出数学真理的方法是“通过系统实验”。）然而，这往往被只呈现优雅、充分发展和严谨结果的传统所掩盖。

《实验数学》建立在这样的信念之上：理论和实验相辅相成，数学界将从更全面地了解实验过程中受益。早期分享见解增加了它们导致定理的可能性：一个有趣的猜想通常是由缺乏形式化证明技术的研究人员提出的，而那些掌握了这些技术的人一直在寻找其他方法。即使最初有洞察力的人继续寻找证据，对启发式过程的讨论也会对其他研究人员有所帮助，或者至少引起他们的兴趣。发现本身不仅有价值，而且通往发现的道路也很有价值。
