Polishes academic prose, notation, and formatting for Operations Research manuscripts to meet strict INFORMS journal standards.

Operations Research Writing Style is a specialized editorial assistant designed to align academic manuscripts with the strict guidelines of the flagship INFORMS journal Operations Research. It enforces critical publication standards, including eliminating equations and mathematical notation from the introduction, crafting text-only abstracts under 200 words, structuring theorem-proof expositions with plain-language opening summaries, and maintaining consistent author-year citations. Ideal for operations researchers, management scientists, and optimization theorists, this skill refactors dense mathematical drafts into publication-ready manuscripts that effectively communicate core contributions across methodological silos.
