Advanced Trends of Special Functions and Analysis of PDEs

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, special functions have been developed and applied in a variety of fields, such as combinatory, astronomy, applied mathematics, physics, and engineering, owing mainly to their remarkable properties. The main purpose of this Special Issue is to create a forum of recently developed theories and formulas of special functions with their possible applications to other research areas. This Special Issue provides readers with an opportunity to develop an understanding of recent trends of special functions and the skills needed to apply advanced mathematical techniques to solve complex problems in the theory of partial differential equations. Subject matters are normally related to special functions involving mathematical analysis and its numerous applications, as well as more abstract methods in the theory of partial differential equations. The main objective of this Special Issue is to highlight the importance of fundamental results and techniques of the theory of complex analysis for PDEs, and emphasize articles devoted to the mathematical treatment of questions arising in physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering—particularly those that stress analytical aspects, and novel problems and their solutions.

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. Fractal and Fractional 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 2700 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.
