Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In a wide range of phenomena in nature, complexity emerges through an interplay between nonlinearly interacting agents and stochastic effects. Examples include spreading phenomena such as the propagation of epidemics, forest fires, air pollution, chemical reactions, the foraging of animals, and anomalous transport processes in complex networks.
The aim of this Special Issue is to gather contributions from across the disciplines combining methods from nonlinear science with stochastic modeling including random walk approaches.
Subjects include but are not limited to stochastic resetting, population dynamics, epidemic spreading, compartment models, predator-prey models, nonlinear systems with random delay effects and memory, and stochastic chaos.

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. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
