Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Symmetry plays a fundamental role in the modeling and analysis of chaotic and nonlinear systems. This Special Issue invites original research studies that explore how symmetry or asymmetry influences the dynamics, control, and applications of chaos in various systems, including memristor, multistability, and fractal and fractional-order models.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Symmetry in nonlinear and chaotic systems;
- Memristor-based chaotic circuits and networks;
- Multistability and coexisting attractors;
- Fractal and fractional-order chaotic systems;
- Chaos-based encryption and secure communication;
- Symmetry breaking and bifurcation analysis;
- Control and synchronization of symmetric chaos;
- Applications in signal processing and computation.
We welcome contributions from professionals in fields of mathematics, physics, computer science, and engineering.
We look forward to your contributions.

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.
