Nieuw Archief voor Wiskunde is a Dutch mathematical journal published by the Koninklijk Wiskundig Genootschap that documents developments in pure mathematics, applied mathematics, history of mathematics, and mathematical education. Established in the late 19th century, it has published articles, expository surveys, and historical notes by scholars affiliated with institutions such as University of Amsterdam, Leiden University, Utrecht University, Delft University of Technology, and Eindhoven University of Technology. The periodical connects authors from Dutch universities with figures associated with European Mathematical Society, International Mathematical Union, Cambridge University Press, and other scholarly bodies.
Founded amid a 19th-century resurgence of mathematical societies alongside institutions like German Mathematical Society, École Normale Supérieure, École Polytechnique, and Imperial College London, the journal emerged in parallel with publications such as Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik, Annals of Mathematics, Bulletin des Sciences Mathématiques, and Mathematical Gazette. Early contributors included mathematicians linked to Leiden University and University of Groningen and contemporaries influenced by work from Carl Friedrich Gauss, Bernhard Riemann, Henri Poincaré, and Felix Klein. During the 20th century the journal navigated contexts shaped by events like World War I, World War II, and postwar reconstruction associated with Marshall Plan-era academic rebuilding, maintaining exchanges with researchers at ETH Zurich, University of Göttingen, and Sorbonne University.
The journal publishes expository articles, research notes, historical essays, and pedagogical discussions with ties to topics studied by scholars from Princeton University, Harvard University, Yale University, University of Chicago, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Coverage spans areas discussed by authorities such as David Hilbert, Emmy Noether, Évariste Galois, Sofia Kovalevskaya, and Niels Henrik Abel, and includes subjects related to work from John von Neumann, André Weil, Alexander Grothendieck, Paul Erdős, and Jean-Pierre Serre. Historical pieces analyze archives connected to Christiaan Huygens, Simon Stevin, Willebrord Snellius, Jan de Witt, and scientists associated with Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences.
The journal has been issued by the Koninklijk Wiskundig Genootschap with editorial boards composed of academics from University of Twente, Radboud University Nijmegen, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Tilburg University, and Maastricht University. Notable editors and contributors have included scholars who collaborated with figures like Luitzen Egbertus Jan Brouwer, Hendrik Anthony Kramers, Willem Jacob van Stockum, Bram van der Pol, and contemporaries whose networks extended to Andrey Kolmogorov, Kurt Gödel, Alonzo Church, and Claude Shannon. The periodical's distribution and design were influenced by printers and publishers comparable to Elsevier, Springer Science+Business Media, and Cambridge University Press.
Important submissions discussed results connected to theorems and problems associated with Poincaré conjecture, Riemann hypothesis, Fermat's Last Theorem, Goldbach conjecture, and expositions referencing techniques from Galois theory, Hilbert spaces, functional analysis, category theory, and algebraic geometry. Historical articles illuminated correspondence among Christiaan Huygens, Isaac Newton, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, Leonhard Euler, and archives tied to Universiteit van Amsterdam and Leiden University Library. Contributors have cited advances linked to Smarandache sequences, methods of Srinivasa Ramanujan, combinatorial problems connected to Paul Erdős and Ronald Graham, and computational perspectives relating to Alan Turing and John von Neumann.
The journal is indexed in national and regional catalogues alongside titles such as Nederlands Tijdschrift voor Natuurkunde, Historisch Tijdschrift, and international bibliographies used by Mathematical Reviews, Zentralblatt MATH, Web of Science, and databases accessed by institutions like Royal Library of the Netherlands, Koninklijke Bibliotheek, British Library, and Library of Congress. Back issues and digitized runs are held by repositories linked to DANS, Huygens Institute, University of Amsterdam Special Collections, Leiden University Libraries, and international archives that collaborate with Europeana. Subscription and archival policies interface with consortia similar to Open Access Observatory, Directory of Open Access Journals, and university presses.
Scholars from Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research, Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences, European Mathematical Society, International Mathematical Union, and various Dutch universities have recognized the journal for fostering communication between historians like those at Huygens Institute and mathematicians active in algebra, analysis, topology, and number theory. Reviews and citations appear in outlets ranging from Inventiones Mathematicae and Acta Mathematica to national bulletins, reflecting influence on curricula at institutions such as Hogeschool van Amsterdam and research groups at Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica. The periodical continues to be discussed at conferences hosted by organizations like International Congress of Mathematicians, European Congress of Mathematics, and national symposia organized by the Koninklijk Wiskundig Genootschap.
