[Tex/LaTex] BibTeX problem with math symbols

bibtexmath-modesymbols

I'm using BibTex for my bibliography, for citing I'm using google scholar. I'm mainly having problems with math symbols: for example, one of the references is:

@incollection{deitmar2005schemes,  
  title={Schemes over$\backslash$  mathbb $\{$F$\}$ \_1},  
  author={Deitmar, Anton},  
  booktitle={Number fields and function fields—two parallel worlds},  
  pages={87--100},  
  year={2005},  
  publisher={Springer}    
}  

But it comes out wrong, the nice $\mathbb{F}_1$ math symbol is missing and what I see is only \mathbb {F}_1. Is the cite BibTeX of google scholar wrong?

Another problem: google scholar gives me this:  
@article{kurokawa2005zeta,  
  title={Zeta functions over $$\backslash$ mathbf $\{$F$\}$ \_1$},  
  author={Kurokawa, Nobushige and others},  
  journal={Proceedings of the Japan Academy, Series A, Mathematical   Sciences},  
  volume={81},  
  number={10},  
  pages={180--184},  
  year={2005},  
  publisher={The Japan Academy}  
}  

But the output is very messy: there is no math symbol for $\mathbb{F}_1$ and the "Proceedings of the Japan Academy, Series A, Mathematical Sciences" come out without spaces and actually runs out of the page.
Thank you all in advance!

Best Answer

Those references are badly formatted:

title={Schemes over {$\mathbb{F}_1$}},

and

title={Zeta functions over {$\mathbf{F}_1$}},

should be the right ways. Although I'd use \mathbf for both; check the original papers to see the right formatting.

Also the in the booktitle field should be ---:

In the example I use filecontents* so that it is self-contained. Fix your .bib file and use it.

\begin{filecontents*}{\jobname.bib}
@incollection{deitmar2005schemes,  
  title={Schemes over {$\mathbb{F}_1$}},  
  author={Deitmar, Anton},  
  booktitle={Number fields and function fields---two parallel worlds},  
  editor={Gerard van der Geer and Ben Moonen and Ren{\'e} Schoof},
  pages={87--100},  
  year={2005},  
  publisher={Birkh{\"a}user Boston}
}  
@article{kurokawa2005zeta,  
  title={Zeta functions over {$\mathbf{F}_1$}},  
  author={Kurokawa, Nobushige and others},  
  journal={Proceedings of the Japan Academy, Series A, Mathematical Sciences},  
  volume={81},  
  number={10},  
  pages={180--184},  
  year={2005},  
  publisher={The Japan Academy}  
}  
\end{filecontents*}

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb}

\begin{document}

I cite \cite{deitmar2005schemes} and \cite{kurokawa2005zeta}

\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{\jobname}

\end{document}

A check in MathSciNet reveals that the second reference is by a single author and also has \mathbb, so it should be

@article {kurokawa2005zeta,
  author = {Kurokawa, Nobushige},
  title = {Zeta functions over {$\mathbb{F}_1$}},
  journal = {Proc. Japan Acad. Ser. A Math. Sci.},
  fulljournal = {Japan Academy. Proceedings. Series A. Mathematical Sciences},
  volume = {81},
  year = {2005},
  number = {10},
  pages = {180--184},
}

Change journal into shortjournal and fulljournal into journal if you want to have the full journal name spelled out.
