Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to provide an interdisciplinary forum for frontier research in mathematical and statistical sciences, emphasizing symmetry as a fundamental organizing principle in theoretical development, methodological innovation, and interdisciplinary applications. This Special Issue will highlight the complementary roles of mathematics and statistics in advancing scientific understanding and addressing complex problems across diverse domains. In this context, this Special Issue will focus on the development, refinement, and rigorous analysis of fundamental concepts in mathematics and statistics, where symmetry serves as a unifying theoretical framework across disciplines. Contributions may address topics such as topological structures and properties, differential equations, nonlinear and dynamical systems, or the theoretical foundations of statistical modeling, statistical inference, sampling theory, and asymptotic analysis.
From a methodological and applied perspective, this Special Issue welcomes studies that apply mathematical theory and statistical methodologies to real-world and interdisciplinary problems, with particular emphasis on symmetry, invariance, and balanced structures in model formulation and analysis. Relevant contributions include, but are not limited to, mathematical and dynamical modeling, symmetry-aware differential equation-based approaches, statistical inference under uncertainty that exploits symmetric dependence or correlation structures, advanced and adaptive sampling methods with balanced or symmetry-driven designs, and computational and data-driven techniques that leverage symmetry to support robust analysis, prediction, and informed decision-making.
Overall, this Special Issue seeks to foster collaboration between mathematicians, statisticians, and applied researchers and to showcase innovative theoretical insights and practical methodologies that leverage symmetry, invariance, and structural balance to contribute to the continued development of mathematical and statistical sciences.
Topics of Interest, include but not limited to, the following:
- Mathematical modeling of biological and epidemiological systems.
- Dynamical systems and stability analysis.
- Ordinary and partial differential equations and symmetry-based solution methods.
- Nonlinear analysis and asymptotic methods.
- General topology and its applications:
- Hyperconnectedness;
- Extremal disconnectedness;
- Submaximality and expandability;
- Continuity for multifunctions.
- Statistical modeling and statistical inference under symmetric dependence structures.
- Sampling methods and asymptotic analysis.
- Computational and applied statistics exploiting symmetry and invariance principles.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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-anonymized 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.
