Permission
Authors wishing to include figures, tables, or text passages that have already been published elsewhere are required to obtain permission from the copyright owner(s) for both the print and online format and to include evidence that such permission has been granted when submitting their papers. Any material received without such evidence will be assumed to originate from the authors.
Preparation of Manuscripts
Manuscripts can be prepared using LaTeX (.tex) format. The preferred first submission format (for reviewing purposes only) is Portable Document File (.pdf). After acceptance, the papers should be converted to the LaTeX (.tex) template which can be found in the following link: Template (Please Right-Click and Save As)
Manuscript Style
Use a standard font of the 10-point type: Times New Roman is preferred. It is necessary to single-line space your manuscript. Normally manuscripts are expected not to exceed 25 single-spaced pages including text, tables, figures and bibliography. All illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
During the manucript preparation process, you must pay attention to the followings
- Title Page: The title page must include:
- The name(s) of the author(s)
- A concise and informative title
- The affiliation(s) and address(es) of the author(s)
- The e-mail address(es) of the author(s)
- The 16-digit ORCID of the author(s), (from 2019)
- Abstract: An abstract is a concise summary of the whole paper, not just the conclusions. It is crucial that the abstract conveys the importance of the work and be understandable without reference to the rest of the manuscript to a multidisciplinary audience. Abstracts should not contain any citation to other published works. The abstract should be no more than 300 words and convey the followings:
- An introduction to the work.
- Some scientific details regarding the background of the problem.
- A summary of the main result.
- The implications of the result.
- A broader perspective of the results, once again understandable across scientific disciplines.
- Keywords: Please provide three to five keywords which can be used for indexing purposes.
- MSC 2020 Classification: Three to five MSC 2020 Classification numbers (https://mathscinet.ams.org/msnhtml/msc2020.pdf) of the study should be specified after keywords.
- Reference Style: Reference citations in the text should be identified by numbers in square brackets "[ ]". The bibliography of the work is arranged by the order in which the citations appear in the text. The original number assigned to the reference is used each time that reference is cited in the text. The first reference cited will be numbered [1] in the text, and the second reference cited will be numbered [2], and so on. If the reference number [1] is cited again later in the text, it will be cited using the number [1]. All references must be complete and accurate. Please ensure that every reference cited in the text is also presented in the reference list (and vice versa). Please use “F. Author” instead of “First Author”. The title of manuscript in the references must be italic and start with the capital letter. It must be “30(8) (1922), 19-23.” instead of “Vol.30, No.8, 19-23, 1922” for articles.

- Tables: Tables (and figures) should be embedded in the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end. Tables should be listed in the following style:
- All tables are to be numbered using Arabic numerals.
- Tables should always be cited in text in consecutive numerical order.
- For each table, please supply a table caption (title) explaining the components of the table. Identify any previously published material by giving the original source in the form of a reference at the end of the table caption.
- Footnotes to tables should be indicated by superscript lower-case letters (or asterisks for significance values and other statistical data) and included beneath the table body.
- Figures: Figures submitted (line drawings, halftones, photos, photomicrographs, etc.) should be clean originals or digital files. Digital files are recommended for the highest quality reproduction and should follow these guidelines:
- EPS, TIFF or JPEG format only.
- Sized to fit on the journal page.
- Embedded in text files and submitted as separate files (if required).

- Offprints / Reprints: The corresponding author of an article will receive a notification of that their article has been published and made available online in PDF format. The authors can download their manuscript free of charge and use considering the rights expressed in the Copyright Notice.
- English Editing: For editors and reviewers to accurately assess the work presented in your manuscript you need to ensure the English language is of sufficient quality to be understood. If you need help with writing in English you should consider. Asking a colleague who is a native English speaker to review your manuscript for clarity. Visiting the English language tutorial which covers the common mistakes when writing in English. Using a professional language editing service where editors will improve the English to ensure that your meaning is clear and identify problems that require your review.
Author's Contribution Statements
For research articles with several authors, a short paragraph specifying their individual contributions must be provided. Author's contribution statement offers authors the opportunity to share an accurate and detailed description of their diverse contributions to the published work. The corresponding author is responsible for ensuring that the descriptions are accurate and agreed by all authors. The role(s) of all authors should be listed, using the relevant above categories. Authors may have contributed in multiple roles. CRediT in no way changes the journal’s criteria to qualify for authorship. Author's contribution statement statements should be provided during the submission process and will appear above the acknowledgment section of the published paper as shown further below. Authorship must be limited to those who have contributed substantially to the work reported.
- Possible Author's Contribution Statements: Conceptualization, Methodology, Software, Validation, Formal Analysis, Investigation, Resources, Data Curation, Writing - Original Draft, Writing - Review & Editing, Visualization, Supervision, Project Administration, Funding Acquisition.
- Example: Conceptualization, F.A. and S.A.; methodology, F.A.; software, F.A.; validation, F.A., S.A. and T.A.; formal analysis, F.A.; investigation, F.A.; resources, F.A.; data curation, F.A.; writing—original draft preparation, F.A.; writing—review and editing, F.A.; visualization, D.A.; supervision, F.A.; project administration, T.A.; funding acquisition, T.A. All authors have read and agreed to the published version of the manuscript.
Author Roles and Responsibilities
When determining the credit for a piece of work, authors should ensure that all those who have made a significant contribution are cited as co-authors. Other individuals who have contributed to the study in a lesser capacity should be acknowledged, but not cited as authors. An author is someone who has made a significant intellectual contribution to the article, this can include but is not limited to:
- Background theory
- Design of experiment
- Device prototype
- Data analysis and interpretation
- Writing of the article or reviewing and/or revising the text and/or figures
We strongly encourage authors to make specific attributions of contribution and responsibility in the acknowledgments of the article, otherwise, all co-authors will be taken to share full responsibility for all of the paper. Authors may wish to use a taxonomy such as CRediT to describe the contributions of each author.
Authors are expected to reach an agreement between themselves regarding authorship, and the order in which author names are presented. If the agreement between the authors cannot be reached, the institution(s) where the work was undertaken should be asked to investigate. Fundamental Journal of Mathematics and Applicaitons will not arbitrate in cases where there is disagreement over authorship. Fundamental Journal of Mathematics and Applicaitons has the right to remove your article from the review process until a resolution can be agreed.
Authors should not use authorship or acknowledgments misleadingly to imply a contribution or endorsement by individuals who have not, in fact, been involved with the work or given an endorsement.
- Responsibility of the Corresponding Author: It is the corresponding author’s responsibility to ensure that all named authors have approved the submitted version of the article, and all further revisions, agree to its submission and are willing to take appropriate responsibility for it. It is important that all authors have approved the final version of the article as accepted for publication. It is the corresponding author’s responsibility to ensure the paper is not under consideration by any other journal at the time of submission. It is the corresponding author’s responsibility to ensure the contact details for all co-authors are entered and correct at the time of submission.
- Changes in Authorship: Any changes to authorship during the review process must be approved by all authors of the paper, and all authors must confirm to the journal that they give their consent and made a genuine intellectual contribution to the paper. In this context, all authors must fill in the "Fundamental Journal of Mathematics and Applicaitons author changes form" and must sign it for any authorship changes including adding new authors / affiliation(s), removing existing authors / affiliation(s), or reordering existing authors / affiliation(s). Corresponding author should confirm that all authors meet the criteria for authorship as outlined by Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and that all authors agree to the change. All authors who have been added, removed, or reordered need to confirm that they agree to the change by signing the form. The concerned submission will be put on hold for further processing until the editorial office receives the completed form. Fundamental Journal of Mathematics and Applicaitons reserves the right to refuse requests if there is reason to doubt the contribution of any newly-added author.
- Deceased Authors: In cases where an author has sadly passed away before a paper has been submitted, we require consent from a familial or legal proxy of the deceased for the paper to be reviewed for potential publication. Deceased authors are still eligible for co-authorship if they made a significant intellectual contribution to the article.
