Dear Colleagues,
The theory of functional equations and inequalities has become one of the most rapidly developing parts of widely understood modern analysis and its applications. Among numerous monographs devoted to this field one should mention, for instance, the following items:
- János Aczél, Lectures on Functional Equations, Mathematics in Science and Engineering, Academic Press, New York-London, 1966.
- János Aczél & Jean Dhombres, Functional Equations in Several Variables: With Applications to Mathematics, Information Theory and to the Natural and Social Sciences, Encyclopedia of Mathematics and Its Applications, vol. 31, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1989.
- Marek Kuczma, Functional Equations in a Single Variable, Mathematics Monographs, Polish Scientific Publishers, Warszawa, 1968.
- Marek Kuczma, Bogdan Choczewski & Roman Ger, Iterative Functional Equations, Encyclopedia of Mathematics and Its Applications, vol. 32, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1990.
- Marek Kuczma, An Introduction to the Theory of Functional Equations and Inequalities, Second edition, Edited and with a preface by Attila Gilányi, Birkhäuser Verlag, Basel, 2009,
- Henrik Stetkær, Functional Equations on Groups, World Scientific, New Jersey-London-Singapore-Beijing-Shanghai-Hong Kong, 2013.
- Laszló Székelyhidi, Convolution Type Functional Equations on Topological Abelian Groups, World Scientific Publishing Co., Inc., Teaneck, NJ, 1991.
- Antal Járai, Regularity Properties of Functional Equations in Several Variables, Advances in Mathematics (Springer), New York, 2005.

We invite our Colleagues to submit papers related to various aspects of Functional Equations and Inequalities and their applications including (but not limited to) solution methods of functional equations on various classic as well as abstract structures, characterizations of different mappings and spaces, convex functions (functionals) and their generalizations, stability and functional equations postulated almost everywhere, Hahn-Banach type separation theory, sandwich theorems, theory of means, orthogonal additivity, difference property, alienation of functional equations, iterations (dynamical systems), iterative functional equations, multifunctions and functional inclusions, functional equations in fuzzy logic and fuzzy set theory, invariant means and related topics.

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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
