Dear Twofish, actually, I'm not looking for articles with a pedagogical scope, but rather to understand how do someone do write a paper in the mathematical field. The idea of a journal club is interesting. I must look for some or other related gatherings. Ds.

Dear Red, actually, I'm coming from an unrelated field directly to the core (or must I say, hardcore) of pure maths. So, for the time being, I am not part of any group, something I miss. But the idea of "introduction to" and undergrad papers is cool. I will look for that. Best wishes, Ds.

Dear Red, it makes me think of a related question: where to find articles that are suitable for undergraduate reading? Desordre.

Dear micromass, you brought a smile to my face. Of course I'd like to explore many branches of mathematics, and learn interesting stuff, but who has the time?!? These four topics are a reasonable goal, and are indeed an expansion from my current state of knowledge. I'm not acquainted with...

Dear Micromass, thanks for you answer. I have not a precise focus already (because, up to a certain point, it does not depend on me), but my master's will be in analysis for sure. About abstract algebra, it is a hole in my background indeed. I know some group theory, but I need to develop...

Dear fellows, my undergrad was not in maths, but I have quite a chance of getting into a master's program in pure maths, later this year. Long story, not particularly interesting. My question is due to the fact that I am quite prepared to the examination (basic real analysis and linear...
