Most introductions I see are really long abstracts, written to convince that the work is substantial and involving more complicated material than appears anywhere in the actual paper. | |
| May 20, 2014 at 23:09 | comment | added | Mike Shulman | @darijgrinberg, I've edited to clarify that in this case, the initial statement is not in the introduction. (I'm very sad to hear that such readers exist; I would say that the introduction is the most important part of many of my papers.) | |

| May 20, 2014 at 19:13 | comment | added | darij grinberg | I'd say it depends on the text, but please do not refer backwards to the introduction, even if you state some of your results there. (There are many readers who skip the introduction because it is the hardest to understand part of many papers.) | |
