Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cosmology as the study of properties and evolution of the large-scale structure of the Universe has been extremely boosted and expanded by spectacular technological and scientific developments in recent decades. Mathematical cosmology is cosmology with an emphasis on mathematical rigor and the underlying conceptual principles, i.e., mathematical cosmology seeks the relevant mathematical details in order not only to provide a deeper understanding of the existing cosmological models thereby stressing their geometrical and/or topological background but also to motivate the formulation and construction of new theories and models. In this sense, mathematical cosmology, though actually a subject of modern mathematical and theoretical physics, is an independent scientific area that can be considered, by applying classical as well as modern mathematical methods, as a testing ground for bringing forward and illuminating the connection of general relativity with quantum gravity, string theory, and modified theories of gravity, all placed in the arena of theoretical cosmology.
In the aforementioned context, there still remain many unresolved mathematical and theoretical-physical problems that set the tone for recent research. The present Special Issue is aiming at presenting modern solution efforts and attempts in the hope of providing a clearer picture of these questions and their possible answers that frame mathematical cosmology today, thereby expanding our knowledge in this scientific area. In this sense, we welcome original research articles as well as review articles on advances in mathematical and/or theoretical cosmology including the following areas:
- General-relativistic cosmology
- Energy-momentum localization in cosmological space-times
- Singularities in cosmology
- Scalar field cosmology
- Scalar-tensor cosmology
- Hamiltonian cosmology
- Cosmology and dynamical systems
- Inhomogeneous and anisotropic cosmology
- Topological issues in cosmology
- Cosmology and modified gravity theories
- Dark cosmology
- Higher-dimensional cosmology
- String/Brane cosmology
- Early universe and inflationary cosmology
- Quantum cosmology
- Twistor/spinor cosmology
- Cosmological magnetogenesis
- Observational cosmology: data analysis
- CMBR: computer computation

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-anonymized 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.
