Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue’s main purpose is to study new encoding and decoding procedures based on different algebraic structures. In other words, the application of algebraic structures in error-control codes to find new algorithms that increase the number of errors that can be corrected and the speed of the encoding and decoding procedure. These algebraic structures have included commutative algebras, computational algebras, ordered algebras, and hypercompositional algebras, emphasizing new combinatorial aspects related to lattice theory, category theory, graph theory, and modeling.
This Special Issue accepts original and high-level contributions, where a connection between algebraic structures and coding theory or cryptography is presented. New theoretical aspects as well as practical applications representing current research directions on this topic are welcome. We also invite authors to submit high-quality review papers on the aforementioned topic.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 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.
