Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In an increasingly complex global economy, the use of mathematical tools and models has become essential for understanding, predicting, and optimizing economic and managerial systems. This Special Issue, titled “Applications of Mathematical Methods in Economics and Finance”, brings together cutting-edge research that highlights the vital role of mathematics in addressing real-world challenges faced by businesses, policymakers, and economists.
The aim of this Special Issue is to showcase innovative approaches that apply mathematical techniques—such as optimization, game theory, econometrics, and statistical modeling—to solve practical problems in economics and management. The contributions span a range of topics, including resource allocation, decision-making under uncertainty, market analysis, risk management, and strategic planning.
By bringing together theoretical innovation and practical application, this Special Issue seeks to foster interdisciplinary dialogue and highlight methodological advancements that enhance analytical rigor in both fields. We anticipate that the insights presented in this Special Issue will contribute to ongoing academic discourse and stimulate further research at the confluence of mathematics, economics, and management.
We look forward to your contributions.
