Complex Analysis, in Particular Analytic and Univalent Functions

Dear Colleagues,

Complex analysis is one of the most beautiful areas of research in mathematics, due mostly to its remarkable properties and interactions with numerous other branches of pure and applied mathematics. Amongst the many research areas of complex analysis, a vibrant and popular field is the theory of univalent functions, dealing with the geometric and mapping properties of analytic functions. Despite the fact that the famous 1916 coefficient conjecture of Bieberbach was solved by Louis de Branges in 1985, a great many other significant and difficult problems remain, which increasingly are being shown to relate to other branches of classical complex analysis.  

The aim of this Special Issue is to invite papers on complex analysis, and in particular univalent functions. Papers submitted should be of high quality, concentrating on mainstream problems, which make significant additions to the subject. Topics could include subclasses of univalent functions, such as convex, starlike, close-to-convex functions and so on, but simple extensions of known results are not welcome.

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-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.
