Removed from DOAJ (2018-04-30). DOAJ's stated reason: Journal is not open access. A removal from the Directory of Open Access Journals is a quality/transparency signal — it can mean the journal became inactive or failed DOAJ's re-review criteria. This is not proof of predatory practice, but verify the journal's current status and policies before submitting. Check on DOAJ ↗

Aims & Scope

Research in the Mathematical Sciences is an international, peer-reviewed journal encompassing the full scope of theoretical and applied mathematics, as well as theoretical computer science. Encourages submission of longer articles for more complex and detailed analysis and proofing of theorems. Publishes shorter research communications (Letters) covering emerging areas of mathematical research. Actively seeks to publish seminal papers in emerging and interdisciplinary areas in all of the mathematical sciences. Editors play a pivotal role in soliciting high-quality research papers. Editorial decisions are made in a timely manner.

Frequently asked questions about Research in Mathematical Sciences

Is Research in Mathematical Sciences a predatory journal?

Research in Mathematical Sciences was withdrawn from the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) — DOAJ's stated reason: "Journal is not open access" (2018-04-30). Withdrawal is not a predatory verdict, but it is a material editorial signal; it remains indexed in Web of Science, Scopus. Verify the journal's current status on DOAJ and its official site before submitting.

What is the impact factor of Research in Mathematical Sciences?

Research in Mathematical Sciences is indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection, so Clarivate publishes an official Journal Impact Factor for it (since the 2023 Journal Citation Reports, every Core Collection journal — including Arts & Humanities and Emerging Sources titles — receives one). PubScope links to Clarivate's official source rather than reprinting the number, which can be out of date. Its open 2-year mean citedness is 0.72.

Is Research in Mathematical Sciences indexed in Scopus and Web of Science?
