Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) is involved in various physical settings. It is a partial differential equation that governs the wave function of a quantum-mechanical system. It is known that NLSE can be solved exactly only for the simplest of systems. Rapid computational methods bring the promise of solving the NLSE for complex systems and have opened extraordinary theoretic and application-based opportunities. In recent years, abundant theories and algorithms have been developed and proposed and applied to solve NLSE practice problems. Motivated by these discoveries, substantial techniques of solving NLSE are investigated in various domains, such as surface gravity waves, superconductivity, nonlinear optics, and BEC, etc.
This Special Issue “Symmetry in Nonlinear Schrödinger Equations” aims to gather and showcase the most recent advances in the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE). We are interested in the whole spectrum of nonlinear Schrödinger equations (NLSEs) and their symmetries applied to relevant problems from all related areas, including numerical simulation and modeling, numerical algorithm, theoretical analysis and applications in practical problems. A list of the topics of interest can be found below:
- Theoretical analysis of NLSEs;
- The symmetry in NLSEs;
- Various codes for solving 1D/2D/3D NLSEs;
- Numerical algorithms for solving NLSEs;
- Multi-body NLSEs;
- Application of NLSEs in a wide range of areas

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.
