Last 3 elements pushed onto next row

Question

$ M E^{ij} = M\begin{bmatrix} e_1 & e_2 & \cdots & e_{i-1} & e_j & e_{i+1} & \cdots & e_{j-1} & e_i & e_{j+1} & \cdots & e_{m-1} & e_{m} \end{bmatrix}$

The rendered equation mysteriously pushes the last three elements onto a new row.

How do I fix this?

Welcome to TeX.SX! Please help us help you and add a minimal working example (MWE) that illustrates your problem. Reproducing the problem and finding out what the issue is will be much easier when we see compilable code, starting with \documentclass{...} and ending with \end{document}. — Skillmon, May 07 '18 at 11:54
If it doesn't fit the line then it breaks it. What's the problem? — percusse, May 07 '18 at 11:54
That is very unlikely to happen if you haven't done any other setting somewhere else. That's why previous comments are asking for a minimal compilable document to reproduce it. — percusse, May 07 '18 at 11:57

From the AMSMath manual, bmatrix and similar support up to 10 columns as default, the example has 13 columns (and gives the classical "extra alignment tab has been changed..." error on compilation). So you get 10 columns, extra values are pushed to a new line.

@Kuttens, yes, there is. – Skillmon May 07 '18 at 12:03
