[Tex/LaTex] Page headers in uppercase (amsbook+chapterbib+natbib)

amsbookcapitalizationheader-footer

I have the following problem which has been driving me crazy for quite some time now. Using the amsbook class for whatever you are intending to use it for, in the end you will end up having your page headers in uppercase, e.g., PREFACE, …, BIBLIOGRAPHY, … Needless to say that the contents list simply plots Preface, …, Bibliography; so far so good. Now, say we are to use chapterbib, in combination with its option sectionbib, to include bibliography sections in each of our chapters. Then, again, these will be printed in our contents list as Bibliography – not necessarily numbered, which is fair enough – belonging to our chapters. However, for some strange reason, the page headers belonging to the bibliography sections now show Bibliography rather than the uppercase BIBLIOGRAPHY which one might have expected. My question is: how do we get these in uppercase? Please note that this problem should be treated in the context of using amsbook class only.

Further, simply putting \markboth{\MakeUppercase{\bibname}}{\MakeUppercase{\bibname}} in each chapter file to be included (following \bibliography) does not help really – it changes the page header only for the last page of the bibliography section.

For example,

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt,oneside]{amsbook}

\usepackage[sectionbib]{chapterbib}
\usepackage[sort&compress]{natbib}

\renewcommand{\bibname}{References}

\begin{document}

\frontmatter
\title{An Example}

\maketitle

\tableofcontents

\include{preface}

\end{document}

well, i've figured out why chapterbib causes the running heads to be uncapitalized.

amsbook depends on these definition for all running heads:

\def\partrunhead#1#2#3{%
  \@ifnotempty{#2}{\uppercase{\ignorespaces#1 #2\unskip}\@ifnotempty{#3}{. }}%
  \def\@tempa{#3}%
  \ifx\@empty\@tempa\else
    \begingroup \def\\{ \ignorespaces}% defend against questionable usage
    \uppercasenonmath\@tempa\@tempa
    \endgroup
  \fi
}
\let\chapterrunhead\partrunhead
\let\sectionrunhead\partrunhead

notice where the \uppercasenonmath is applied. the relevant marks are produced from #3 in this process.

chapterbib redefines the way these marks are set, as

 \csname#2mark\endcsname{\bibname}

buried deep within the definition of \sectionbib (which defines the behavior for a chapter as well as for a section) so in effect the amsbook definition isn't applied at all (for the bibliography) when chapterbib is used.

it looks like the most expedient way to get uppercased running heads for the references is to intervene after \begin{thebibliography} (in the .bbl file). your code

\markboth{\MakeUppercase{\bibname}}{\MakeUppercase{\bibname}}

will work as intended there.

an alternative approach would be to get rid of uppercasing entirely, by redefining \partrunhead to omit \uppercasenonmath and then reiterating the two \let statements.

i haven't investigated whether natbib.sty redefines how the running heads are set, but it probably does.

There are several questions here.

You can define a new page style to change the header format. In my example code this is done defining \ps@spheadings.

You can define a new theorem style to change the format for the theorem-like structures. In my example code this is done defining \th@spplain.I defined this new style using low-level commands, but you could use the features provided by the amsthm package.

\documentclass{amsbook}
\usepackage{lipsum}

\makeatletter
\def\ps@spheadings{\ps@empty
  \def\@evenhead{\normalfont\scriptsize
      \rlap{\thepage}\hfil \leftmark{}{}}%
  \def\@oddhead{\normalfont\scriptsize
      \rightmark{}{}\hfil \llap{\thepage}}%
  \let\@mkboth\markboth
  \def\partmark{\@secmark\markboth\partrunhead\partname}%
  \def\chaptermark{%
    \@secmark\markboth\chapterrunhead{}}%
  \def\sectionmark{%
    \@secmark\markright\sectionrunhead\sectionname}%
}
\def\th@spplain{%
  \let\thm@indent\relax
  \thm@headfont{\bfseries}% heading font bold face
  \let\thmhead\thmhead@plain \let\swappedhead\swappedhead@plain
  \thm@preskip.5\baselineskip\@plus.2\baselineskip
                                    \@minus.2\baselineskip
  \thm@postskip\thm@preskip
  \normalfont
}
\makeatother

\theoremstyle{spplain}
\newtheorem{theo}{Theorem}

\pagestyle{spheadings}

\begin{document}

\chapter{A test chapter}
\section{A test section}
\begin{theo}
\lipsum[1]
\end{theo}
\lipsum[1-30]

\end{document}

Although both modifications are not difficult to achieve, you should think carefully if amsbook is really the best class for you, or if perhaps some other class would suit you better.

To customize the theorem-like structures, you can use the amsthm package (I already provided the link); the ntheorem package could also be a possibility if your document class is not from the AMS collection.

If you decide not to use the amsbook document class, but to use some of the standard document classes, then you can customize the headers using either the fancyhdr or the titlesec packages.

In What are the available “documentclass” types and their uses? you can find a description of some of the available document classes; besides amsbook, and book, the document classes scrbook and memoir could be an option for you.

Here's a simple schematic document showing titlesec and amsthm in action with the book document class:

\documentclass[twoside]{book}
\usepackage{amsthm}
\usepackage[pagestyles]{titlesec}
\usepackage{lipsum}

\newpagestyle{mystyle}{
 \sethead[left-odd][center-odd][right-odd]{left-even}{center-even}{right-odd}
  \setfoot[left-odd][center-odd][right-odd]{left-even}{center-even}{right-odd}
}

\newtheoremstyle{mystyle}
{3pt}% ⟨Space above⟩
{3pt}% ⟨Space below⟩
{\normalfont}% ⟨Body font⟩
{}% ⟨Indent amount⟩
{\bfseries}% ⟨Theorem head font⟩
{.}% ⟨Punctuation after theorem head⟩
{.5em}% ⟨Space after theorem head⟩
{}% ⟨Theorem head spec (can be left empty, meaning ‘normal’)⟩
\theoremstyle{mystyle}
\newtheorem{theo}{Theorem}

\pagestyle{mystyle}

\begin{document}

\chapter{A test chapter}
\section{A test section}
\begin{theo}
\lipsum[1]
\end{theo}
\lipsum[1-30]

\end{document}

Running heads with amsbook

It's actually easy (possibly an oversight in amsbooka).

\documentclass{amsbook}
\usepackage{amsbooka, lipsum}

% redefine \sectionmark so it doesn't issue a mark
\renewcommand{\sectionmark}[1]{}

\begin{document}

\author{Author}
\title{Meanderings}

\maketitle

\chapter[First Chap]{First Chapter\author{First Author}}

\lipsum[1-20]

\chapter[Second Chap]{Second Chapter\author{Second Author}}

\section{A Section}

\lipsum[1-20]

\section{Another Section}

\lipsum[1-20]

\end{document}

Note that, contrary to what the documentation shows, there should be no space in front of \author.

Here's a version that simplifies the input, making the optional short title really optional.

\documentclass{amsbook}
\usepackage{amsbooka, lipsum}

\renewcommand{\sectionmark}[1]{}

\NewDocumentCommand{\Chapter}{sO{#3}mo}{%
  % #1 = possible * for unnumbered chapter
  % #2 = optional short title (defaults to full title)
  % #3 = title
  % #4 = optional author
  \IfBooleanTF{#1}{% *-version
    \IfNoValueTF{#4}{% no author
      \chapter*[#2]{#3}%
    }{% author
      \chapter*[#2]{#3\author{#4}}%
    }%
  }{% numbered chapter
    \IfNoValueTF{#4}{% no author
      \chapter[#2]{#3}%
    }{% author
      \chapter[#2]{#3\author{#4}}%
    }
  }%
}

\begin{document}

\author{Author}
\title{Meanderings}

\maketitle

\Chapter*{Preface}[Author]

\lipsum[1-3]

\Chapter{First Chapter}[First Author]

\lipsum[1-20] % this has the desired headings

\Chapter[Second Chap]{Second Chapter}[Second Author]

\section{A Section}

\lipsum[1-20]

\section{Another Section}

\lipsum[1-20]

\end{document}
