zbMATH

zbMATH, formerly known as Zentralblatt MATH, is a comprehensive bibliographic database of mathematics. It is operated by the European Mathematical Society and produced by the FIZ Karlsruhe research center. zbMATH covers a wide range of mathematical literature, including journal articles, books, conference proceedings, and patents. Its content originates from a global network of editors and abstractors who review and summarize published mathematical works.

The database began in 1931 as Zentralblatt für Mathematik und ihre Grenzgebiete. It aims to provide access to a significant portion of the world's mathematical publications and offers detailed abstracts for many entries. Researchers, students, and mathematicians utilize zbMATH to discover new research, track developments in their fields, and find relevant literature for their work. The service is accessible through a web interface and offers advanced search capabilities. Its historical depth makes it a valuable resource for understanding the evolution of mathematical thought over the past century.
