Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Questions around symmetry and partial differential equations are closely linked, and they have been the subject of intensive investigations over the past 50 years. Some of the general themes are radial symmetry, axial symmetry, and symmetry with respect to some hyperplane.
Specifically in elliptic partial differential equations, other related issues are the loss of compactness, regularity, and decay of solutions. Although the previous four decades witnessed significant development in this research area, there are still many outstanding open problems, modeled in local problems the same as in nonlocal problems, for instance, involving fractional Laplacian.
The present Special Issue calls for new contributions to these important and interesting topics of research, and we sincerely hope that you will participate.

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.
