Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In past decades, Z3-graded algebraical structures have been the object of raising interest, also in view of their possible applications in physics. Numerous generalizations of Z2-graded structures have been proposed and investigated, e.g., Z3-graded exterior differentials and Grassmann algebras, ternary Clifford algebras, Z3-generalizations of supersymmetry, and Z3-graded generalization of spin and color Dirac equation. These topics will be the subject of articles presented in the Special Issue, combining articles of mathematical and physical character.

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.
