About Us
The Journal of Contemporary and Applied Mathematics (ISSN 2222-5498, E-ISSN 3006-3183) adheres to the principles of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and follows the COPE Code of Conduct and Best Practice Guidelines for Journal Editors and the Code of Conduct for Journal Publishers. The journal also follows recommendations contained in A Guide for Editors-in-Chief, Associate Editors, and Managing Editors. The journal and the publisher expect that authors, peer reviewers, and editors follow the best ethical behaviour practices contained therein.
The Journal of Contemporary Applied Mathematics aims to share new and innovative research ideas and developments in the field of mathematics. The journal publishes original research papers and survey articles covering all areas of mathematics, with special attention given to mathematical analysis, ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations, mathematical physics, functional analysis, and probability theory.
Significant and useful advances of the current state of knowledge are an essential factor and it is important that papers are presented in a manner that will be appreciated by mathematicians. Papers not previously published elsewhere will be accepted and emphasis will be placed upon the originality of concepts and execution. Once a paper is accepted for publication in JCAM the author is assumed to have transferred the copyright to Serials Publications.
All papers are refereed through a double-blind process. Articles for consideration are to be communicated to the managing editor through e-mail: rakibaz@yahoo.com. Manuscripts should be written in English.
It is preferred that manuscripts be prepared using TeX or one of its variants LaTeX, AMSTeX, or AMS-LaTeX. For submissions, attached LaTeX file excluding authors’ names and postal addresses are preferred. On a separate sheet, authors should provide (i) Title of the paper and (ii) Authors' names and postal addresses. Authors should make sure that the manuscript is in its final form and that all necessary corrections to the submitted file(s) have been made. Each paper should contain an abstract of no more than 150 words followed by the keywords. To facilitate keywords searching and indexing, all manuscripts shall contain AMS 2010 subject classification information and keywords. References to the published literature should be cited in the text by numbers in square brackets. Full references should appear in numerical order of appearance.
Journal references should be arranged as follows (APA style):
[1] Efendiev, R. F. (2011). Spectral analysis for one class of second-order indefinite non-self-adjoint differential operator pencil. Applicable Analysis, 90(12), 1837-1849.
Book references should be given as follows:
[2] Levitan, B. M. (2018). Inverse Sturm-Liouville Problems. Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG.
The journal publishes two issues per year. In order to achieve speedy publication of research articles, we request all our referees to report within 1 month. Usually, a decision will be communicated to the author within 1 month of submission, and the editorial board is committed to rendering a decision within 3 months in all cases.
All our readers and authors take advantage of free open access. We believe this provides immediate access to research content, following the principle that making scientific research open to the public contributes to a wider global exchange of knowledge. Since we do not charge for open access, the cost of publishing — including reviewing, publishing journals, online hosting, and archiving — is offset by article processing fees. The processing fee for this journal is 400 USD per article. The responsible author must pay this amount after receiving an official letter of acceptance for publication.
Additional sets of reprints may be ordered at the time of proof correction. Subscription inquiries and subscription orders should be addressed to the Editorial Office: Baku Engineering University, Khirdalan city, Hasan Aliyev str., 120 AZ0101, Absheron, Azerbaijan.
The Journal of Contemporary Applied Mathematics is published by the Department of Mathematics at Baku Engineering University. Founded in 2011 by Rakib Efendiev of the National Academy of Sciences of Azerbaijan (Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics, Baku), the journal was transferred in 2019 to the Department of Mathematics of Baku Engineering University.
