Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues
In this Special Issue Mathematical Programming and Optimization Algorithms, we welcome articles related to mathematical programming; integer programming; linear programming and network flow; nonlinear programming, theory, and algorithms; algorithm complexity; the applications of operations research; and discrete and stochastic optimization. Topics also include branch-and-bound, branch-and-cut, and cutting plane algorithms; multi-objective optimization, deterministic and non-deterministic algorithms; stochastic programming; approximation algorithms; and multi-criteria methods. Advances in and results for classical mathematical programming problems such as the knapsack, lot sizing, traveling salesman, set cover, assignment, and uncapacitated facility location problems, among other similar problems, are also covered in this Special Issue.
This Special Issue accepts high-quality papers containing original research results and review articles of exceptional merit.

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. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
