AMS-LaTeX is a collection of macro packages for LaTeX . The individual packages are extensions especially for the mathematical formula set . They are part of every TeX distribution.
history
AMS-LaTeX is the continuation of AMS-TeX , which supports the formula set in plain TeX .
The American Mathematical Society originally developed AMS-LaTeX for authors of the journals it edited. The use of these macros has also become widespread over the years. They are also used by many other subjects that need mathematics as an auxiliary science - especially physics .
The amsrefs
The amsrefs extension package is used for the largely automatic creation of a bibliography that does not depend on BibTeX . It is intended to avoid some of the disadvantages of BibTeX. The database itself can be set and output as a LaTeX document. amsrefs can read the .bib files used by BibTeX.
