Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Symmetry and fractals are two concepts that are abundant in mathematics, physics, and nature. They provide new mathematical tools for studying complex systems and are important for understanding and describing physical phenomena. These tools can extract useful information hidden in complex data, providing strong support for scientific research and engineering applications. They both hold important positions and values in the field of science, providing us with new perspectives and methods for understanding and describing complex phenomena in nature.
This Special Issue aims to explore the basic principles and applications of symmetry and fractal theory in fields such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, sociology, and engineering; promote the research and development of symmetry and fractal theory; discover new theories and methods; develop new numerical and experimental methods to validate and expand symmetry and fractal theory; and apply the theories of symmetry and fractals to solve practical problems and promote scientific and technological progress.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- symmetry;
- fractals;
- theoretical research;
- interdisciplinary applications;
- numerical methods;
- mathematical models.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.

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.
