Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Since its inception, fuzzy logic has provided robust tools for modeling vagueness and imprecision in complex systems. Over the years, its theoretical foundations have evolved alongside a growing range of practical applications in the fields of control systems, data mining, artificial intelligence, decision-making, and others. In our era marked by vast, heterogeneous data and the growing need for interpretable models, fuzzy logic remains a flexible and effective paradigm for addressing real-world complexity.
This Special Issue aims to highlight recent advancements in the mathematical development of fuzzy logic, with a special emphasis on rigorous methods and models grounded in formal mathematics. It welcomes contributions that explore novel theoretical developments—such as generalizations of fuzzy sets, fuzzy relations, fuzzy topology, algebraic structures in fuzzy logic, fuzzy measure theory, and formal aspects of fuzzy decision-making. In addition, we welcome works that explore the mathematical applications of fuzzy logic in areas such as optimization, statistics, operations research, and applied analysis, as well as interdisciplinary studies where fuzzy methods are rigorously integrated into mathematical models.
Submissions may include original research papers as well as comprehensive surveys addressing topics including, but not limited to:
- Theoretical foundations of fuzzy set theory and fuzzy logic;
- Algebraic and topological structures in fuzzy systems;
- Fuzzy measures, integrals, and probabilistic uncertainty;
- Stochastic and fuzzy optimization techniques;
- Fuzzy logic in mathematical modeling of complex systems;
- Applications of fuzzy methods in operations research and statistics;
- Formal approaches to fuzzy decision-making and inference.
By focusing on both theoretical innovations and mathematically grounded applications, this Special Issue seeks to foster a deeper understanding of the role of fuzzy logic within the broader landscape of modern mathematical sciences.

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. Axioms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
