Fractal and Fractional

Fractal and Fractional is an international, scientific, peer-reviewed, open access journal of fractals and fractional calculus and their applications in different fields of science and engineering published monthly online by MDPI.
  • Open Access— free for readers, with article processing charges (APC) paid by authors or their institutions.
  • High Visibility: indexed within Scopus, SCIE (Web of Science), Inspec, and other databases.
  • Journal Rank: JCR - Q1 (Mathematics, Interdisciplinary Applications) / CiteScore - Q1 (Analysis)
  • Rapid Publication: manuscripts are peer-reviewed and a first decision is provided to authors approximately 19.9 days after submission; acceptance to publication is undertaken in 2.7 days (median values for papers published in this journal in the first half of 2025).
  • Recognition of Reviewers: reviewers who provide timely, thorough peer-review reports receive vouchers entitling them to a discount on the APC of their next publication in any MDPI journal, in appreciation of the work done.
