Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to present research regarding the intriguing properties of black holes and their relationship with the very early universe. Currently, particle physics (with its new ideas and unification approaches) has clarified some fundamental connections between extra dimensions, inflation, and holography, and the possibility that the young universe is filled with unsuspected primordial fossils such as cosmic strings, PBHs, etc. Thus, research concerning the properties of these objects and their possible connections with the properties of the Universe as a whole is very important. We therefore welcome contributions that address this topic.
It is remarkable that the primordial universe and the interactions between elementary particles are subject to conservation laws and symmetries. As such, this Special Issue is dedicated to the exploration and investigation of theoretical, phenomenological, and observational effects that can leave important and detectable signatures, either discarding or favoring cosmological models that seek to elucidate the initial phases of the Universe's formation.

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.
