Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the rapid development of chemical and physical technologies, increasingly more new practical problems have rapidly emerged, bringing challenges to the topological analysis and computation of graphs and networks. Consequently, the topological analysis and computation of chemical graphs and physical networks have become common and indispensable in tackling problems in both the academic and practical fields.
Specifically, the aim of this Research Topic is to provide a general view of the current research in the topological analysis and computation of chemical graphs and physical networks, as well as to show how mathematics can help in such important aspects as understanding, analysis, computation, prediction, treatment, and data processing.
We encourage the submissions of theoretical as well as applied investigations on methods for the topological analysis and computation of chemical graphs and physical networks based on their parameters such as topological indices, graph labeling, metric dimensions, entropy, and energies.
Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:
- Crossing-study of Graph Theory and Artificial Intelligence Algorithm;
- Topological analysis of chemical graphs and physical networks;
- Computation of topological indices, energies, metric dimensions, and the entropy of chemical graphs and physical networks;
- Mathematical modeling in chemical graphs and physical networks;
- Different labelings of chemical graphs and physical networks;
- Mathematical calculation of complex networks;
- Algorithm analysis on chemical graphs and physical networks.

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.
