Electronic Journal of Differential Equations (EJDE): Instructions to Authors

The (EJDE) invites submissions on all topics related to differential equations and their applications, including but not limited to ODEs, PDEs, integral equations, delay equations, and functional differential equations. The journal seeks to publish high-quality, peer-reviewed original research papers, with a preference for articles longer than 10 pages. To be considered for publication, a paper must present correct, novel, and significant results that appeal to a broad mathematical audience.

Manuscripts should be submitted as PDF files via https://ejde-ojs-txstate.tdl.org/ejde/. When submitting, please suggest three potential referees whose research areas closely align with your manuscript's topic. If you do not receive confirmation of receipt within a week, please contact the managing editors.

Authors are required to write their manuscripts in English and are encouraged to follow the guidelines provided in "How to Write Mathematics" by Paul Halmos and "Writing Mathematical Papers in English: A Practical Guide" by Jerzey Trzeciak. It is essential to carefully proofread the manuscript and, if possible, seek feedback from an English-speaking colleague before submission.

Format. Manuscripts should be as PDF files formatted using AMS LaTeX, specifically with the \documentclass{amsart} command as detailed on page 3 of the User's Guide to AMS-LaTeX, Version 1.1. For the page size please use (\usepackage{a4wide}) and minimize the use of custom macros, preferring standard TeX macros instead. LaTeX files of recent publications can be accessed from the abstract of corresponding articles.

Graphics should be included as PNG, JPG, PDF, or EPS files, or by using the LaTeX picture environment. Ensure figures are imported using the \usepackage{graphicx} and \includegraphics{fig1} commands. Please provide short description of the figure as (\caption{...}) This will be useful for visually impaired persons using screen readers.

References in the bibliography should be listed alphabetically, and for BibTeX users, the \bibliographystyle{amsplain} style is recommended. To aid dissemination, please include Mathematics Subject Classification numbers, key words, the author's email address, and an abstract no longer than twelve lines. Use words rather than symbols in the abstract and title whenever possible.

By submitting a manuscript, the author affirms that it has not been copyrighted, published, or submitted elsewhere. If the paper appeared in a preliminary form, such as in conference proceedings, this must be clearly indicated in a footnote on the title page.

Article processing charges. There are no page charges or access fees for authors, readers, or their institutions. Peer review process. This involves sending the manuscript to referees (whose identities remain confidential) with the statement, "The EJDE accepts only original work containing new results (or techniques) that are correct, nontrivial, and of interest to mathematicians." The managing editors will then decide on the manuscript's acceptance or rejection.

Accepted manuscripts will be modified to conform to the journal's style, and authors will be asked to proofread the final version before publication. Authors retain their copyrights, and the EJDE applies the Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) license to all articles. Authors are encouraged to submit photographs to be displayed with the abstract, either as PNG or JPG files or by providing a link to a webpage where the photographs can be found.

Once published, articles cannot be removed or modified. However, authors may attach addenda or corrigenda to provide corrections or additional information, including references and links to other articles.
