Aims & Scope

Annals of Functional Analysis is published by Birkhäuser on behalf of the Tusi Mathematical Research Group. Ann. Funct. Anal. is a peer-reviewed electronic journal publishing papers of high standards with deep results, new ideas, profound impact, and significant implications in all areas of functional analysis and all modern related topics (e.g., operator theory). Two related journals are Banach Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Advances in Operator Theory. Ann. Funct. Anal. presents the best paper award yearly. The award in the year n is given to the best paper published in the years n-1 and n-2. The referee committee consists of selected editors of the journal.
