Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues:
Mathematics runs Special Issues to create collections of papers on specific topics. The aim is to establish a community of authors and readers to discuss the latest research and develop new ideas and research directions. Special Issues are led by Guest Editors who are experts in the subject and oversee the editorial process for papers. Papers published in a Special Issue will be collected together on a dedicated page of the journal’s website. For any inquiries related to a Special Issue, please contact the Editorial Office.
This Special Issue is devoted to the “Theory, Modeling and Applications of Fractional-Order Systems”. Although the concept of fractional-order integrals and derivatives can be traced back to the letter from Leibniz to L’Hôpital written in 1695, it was only in the late seventies that fractional-order operators were introduced in the scientific community, and it is today understood as the study of integrals and derivatives whose order is not composed of integers but real numbers. In the last 20 years these concepts have been profusely studied and applied in a wide area of physical and mathematical problems.

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.
