Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Since the late Elie Sanchez, in 1976, started the study of fuzzy relation equations, a lot of water has passed under the bridge; theory and practice were and are being widely dealt with and known. Applications are oriented by looking for several types of relation equations. Fuzzy systems are mainly governed by suitable equations where, internally, the fuzzy relation mimics the ties between inputs and the system outputs. This Special Issue will present the most recent trends and fuzzy-related applications and equations in the real world; many authors have implemented theory and practice within certain applications, publishing their works in many journals worldwide. We invite the authors to present their past and future ideas in papers on any topic connected to relation equations, revisiting either concepts that have not had their due and necessary attention, or new concepts or new types of relation equations motivated from applicational aspects. Papers connected to the mathematical aspects of relation equations are also welcome; giving the fundamentals of algebraic structures is an important and cogent topic. On the other hand, Sanchez’s work looked to complete Brouwerian lattices for determining an environment in which the diagnosis of diseases is well adapted to the symptoms displayed by patients (Sanchez was also a practicing doctor). This Special Issue is dedicated to him. In summary, we welcome papers dealing with any aspect of fuzzy relation equations, either theoretical or/and applicative.

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.
