### 8.26 `titlepage`

Synopsis:

    \begin{titlepage}
      ... text and spacing ...
    \end{titlepage}

Create a title page, a page with no printed page number or heading and with succeeding pages numbered starting with page one.

In this example all formatting, including vertical spacing, is left to the author.

    \begin{titlepage}
    \vspace*{\stretch{1}}
    \begin{center}
      {\huge\bfseries Thesis \\[1ex]
                      title}                  \\[6.5ex]
      {\large\bfseries Author name}           \\
      \vspace{4ex}
      Thesis  submitted to                    \\[5pt]
      \textit{University name}                \\[2cm]
      in partial fulfilment for the award of the degree of \\[2cm]
      \textsc{\Large Doctor of Philosophy}    \\[2ex]
      \textsc{\large Mathematics}             \\[12ex]
      \vfill
      Department of Mathematics               \\
      Address                                 \\
      \vfill
      \today
    \end{center}
    \vspace{\stretch{2}}
    \end{titlepage}

To instead produce a standard title page without a `titlepage` environment, use `\maketitle` (see \maketitle).
