Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The interaction between theoretical physicists and highly specialized mathematician communities is currently experiencing hectic and fast development based on the key recent findings in supersymmetry, connecting mathematical physics, quantum mechanics and quantum field theory in their broadest senses. Since the first generalizations of the harmonic oscillator algebraic method and first studies on the existence of supersymmetric particles in nature, the idea of supersymmetry has come a long way through a very prosperous journey. New recent results on shape invariance, isospectrality, symplectic geometry, Wigner–Dunkl quantum mechanics, dualities and novel symmetries represent lively trending aspects of supersymmetric quantum mechanics with fairly significant applications in many previously unrelated branches within quantum field theory, string theory and statistical physics, not to mention technological applications. In this Special Issue, we focus on hidden and explicit symmetries with corresponding subtleties related to inter-relations between those subjects, leading to important applications for enhancing human knowledge about our world. It is a pleasure to live in such scientifically innovative times.

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. Symmetry is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
