Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the last decade, the mathematics behind security and privacy has seen great advances both in theories and in applications, e.g., new formal models to support blockchains, new flavours of zero-knowledge to fuel cryptocurrencies, and a boost in privacy research of various kinds driven by contact-tracing applications. In this Special Issue, we are particularly looking for your submissions on the mathematical foundations of these timely matters of security and privacy, which have sparked our interest via the recent technological and ICT trends. However, we do not wish to restrict the Special Issue to these particular use cases, but rather encourage submissions, specifically on foundational aspects, on all that may constitute recent matters of security and privacy.

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.
