Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nonlinear analysis is a rapidly growing area of mathematics, with numerous applications in optimization, control theory, economics, engineering, and other disciplines. Recently, with the tools of nonlinear analysis, various reformulations for optimization problems and techniques in analyzing the convergence of algorithms have explored new and rich directions. The goals of this Special Issue are to stimulate further research and to highlight recent advances in these fields as well as to promote, encourage, and bring together researchers in the fields of nonlinear analysis and optimization. This Issue is devoted to the publication of original articles of current interest on every theoretical, computational, and application aspect of nonlinear analysis, variational analysis, convex analysis, fixed point theory, and optimization techniques, as well as their applications to science, engineering, and other disciplines.

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.
