Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, entitled “Forecasting, Modeling and Optimization in Mathematical Finance”, aims to present recent advances in mathematical methodologies and computational techniques applied to modern financial problems. In recent years, the growing complexity of financial markets, the proliferation of high-frequency data, and the emergence of new asset classes have created significant demand for robust forecasting tools, rigorous modeling frameworks, and efficient optimization algorithms. Mathematical finance, sitting at the intersection of applied mathematics, probability theory, statistics, and optimization, has proven to be a powerful discipline for addressing practical challenges such as asset pricing, risk management, portfolio selection, algorithmic trading, and derivative pricing.
This Special Issue invites high-quality original research papers on recent advances in forecasting, modeling, and optimization in mathematical finance. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Financial time series forecasting;
- Applications of AI in forecasting;
- Portfolio optimization and asset allocation;
- Risk measurement and management;
- Machine learning and deep learning in finance;
- Mathematical modeling in economics and finance.

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. 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.
