Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I invite you to submit your recent and novel work in this Special Issue of Mathematics. Fractional-order calculus deals with derivatives and integrals in which the order is non-integer. There is an increasing interest in the study of fractional-order systems because fractional-order dynamics can model complex phenomena, which is not possible with integer-order dynamics. An important characteristic of fractional-order systems is the memory associated with the kernel of the derivative, which in most cases can be non-local, non-singular or both. Memory plays an important role in fractional-order systems because it allows us to model non-local behavior, and, in most cases, to predict future events in the systems. All these properties, among others, are allowing the development of new investigations in areas such as control engineering, dynamical systems, signal processing, and so on. This Special Issue will focus on such areas, but will not be limited to them. Therefore, I encourage the submission of novel investigations on the use of fractional-order dynamics, fractional-order control systems, signal processes, and any novel work related to fractional-order calculus. I am sure your important contributions will expand the state of the art in fractional-order systems.
Dr. Antonio Coronel-Escamilla

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.
