| Feb 24, 2011 at 8:32 | comment | added | Andrew Stacey | As you are a recent PhD graduate, the best person to ask about this is your advisor. After that, I suggest that you contact well-known (and well-disposed) people in your field with a considered, moderated, full account asking for their advice. MO is not a great place for getting advice on such matters and I think that these "I want some advice" questions are potentially more harmful than neutral as they may dissuade people from looking for proper solutions. So I've voted to close. | |

Maybe you should search for papers containing the words "never appeared", and see how the other authors who did provide the missing details later have decided to present their situation. | |

| Feb 24, 2011 at 7:10 | comment | added | Gunnar Þór Magnússon | At the risk of sounding incredibly naive, maybe write up what you just posted here in a note somewhere in your paper? That is, "So-and-so says he proved this in [ref1], ..., [ref$n$], most of which are not available. I was not aware of his work when I proved these results, and we prove them here with methods not available at the time of So-and-so's work." This sounds like work for Feynman's words on honesty in science (tinyurl.com/ybgfa3p - search for "honesty"). | |
