Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

"Knots, Electrodynamics and Gravity in Mathematical Physics" is a comprehensive exploration of the latest developments in the field of mathematical physics. It delves into the intricate relationship between knot theory, electrodynamics and gravity, particularly focusing on the following: mathematical aspects of knots in electrodynamics and general relativity; Hopfion, knots, cables, and other topologically non-trivial electromagnetic and gravitational fields; methods of constructing knotted electromagnetic and gravitational fields; space–time geometry and electromagnetic and gravitational knots; spin and helicity of knotted electromagnetic and gravitational fields; knotted and other topologically non-trivial solutions of Einstein–Maxwell equations; knotted solutions of Einstein equations; topological aspects of gravitoelectromagnetism and Weyl gravitoelectromagnetism; quantum aspects of knotted solutions in electrodynamics and gravity; and topological solutions in non-local gravity. The Special Issue provides a detailed understanding of Hopfions and other knots and their applications to electromagnetism and weak gravity. It also covers the latest research, innovations, and advancements in these areas, offering readers an updated perspective on the subject.

We would like to encourage researchers and professionals with expertise in knot theory, electrodynamics, quantum field theory, string theory, quantum gravity and general relativity in Mathematical Physics to submit their work to this Special Issue. We welcome all relevant contributions and will consider them for publication.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
