1 When to upload PDF files
- You should upload PDF files when:
- you need a more mathematically sophisticated layout than the Atlas supports,

- you wish to give a new calculation or argument for a statement already in the literature.
- Uploading PDF files allow users to contribute authored, original content to open-editing pages.
- Users are encouraged, e. g. to provide new computations of invariants, new proofs of existing results and even new results.
- Please provide your name and institutional address (if applicable) in the PDF file in order to be cited properly.
