Proper way to cite your sources?

[Newtime]

...in a math research paper that is. I really have no idea. I'm assuming it's different than MLA. Is there a website or something out there that has the guidelines or is it different for each journal?

Probably different for each set of journals, or similar. Do you have a stylesheet that you could follow?

Stylesheet? I really don't have much of anything to go by. Fortunately, this isn't a huge deal since I have no real deadline but I would just like to have it look right when I get it to my adviser to look over. Is there no "general" way of doing things?

Well, by stylesheet I meant that for instance when I was writing my final dissertation that references had to be in RSC style, something like http://www.rsc.org/Publishing/ReSourCe/AuthorGuidelines/ArticleLayout/sect4.asp and http://www.bath.ac.uk/library/help/infoguides/references.pdf or similar

Alright, thanks, that will work wonderfully for the time being.
