Very likely it is known.

By every US publisher?  Or every one except the AMS?

So exclude the US if you wish, but it is not a common convention[1] in
UK pure maths nor has it been in the last few decades: ie since our

very precise.

[1] Not `a rule', as we have none here (except about unimportant
things such as inheriting thrones, of course).
