Call for Papers — MERT Journal Vol. 1, Issue 1 (October 2026)

2026-06-11

MERT Journal (Mathematical Evaluation, Reasoning and Theory) is pleased to announce its Call for Papers for the inaugural issue (Vol. 1, No. 1, October 2026).

Scope

MERT Journal publishes original research in which mathematics is the primary instrument of inquiry. The journal bridges mathematical theory, method, and application across all domains. Core areas include:

  • Decision Sciences & Evaluation Methods: MCDM (AHP, TOPSIS, VIKOR, PROMETHEE, ELECTRE, CODAS and hybrids), group decision making, aggregation operators, ranking and selection.
  • Fuzzy Logic & Uncertainty Modelling: Type-1/2 fuzzy sets, intuitionistic, Pythagorean and q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets, neutrosophic sets, rough sets, possibility theory.
  • Optimization & Operations Research: Linear/nonlinear programming, metaheuristics, robust and stochastic optimization, queueing, inventory, scheduling, game theory.
  • Applied Statistics & Data Science: Bayesian inference, multivariate analysis, machine learning methodology, time series, statistical modelling.
  • Mathematical Modelling & Simulation: Differential equations, dynamical systems, mathematical biology, financial mathematics, numerical methods.
  • Pure & Structural Mathematics: Algebra, combinatorics, graph theory, topology, functional analysis, fixed-point theory, number theory.

Beyond these areas, MERT Journal welcomes original research from any scientific or engineering domain in which mathematics constitutes the primary analytical tool. If your work makes a substantial mathematical contribution — in theory, methodology, or rigorous application — it falls within the scope of MERT Journal.
