The Journal de l’École polytechnique — Mathématiques (JEP) publishes, in English or French, original research articles. It aims at reaching the best level, when compared to international mathematical journals, in all domains of applied and fundamental mathematics. It was launched in 2013 and is meant as a continuation of the Journal de l’École polytechnique, one of the oldest French scientific journals (1795–1939), which published articles in mathematics as well as in mechanics and in physics. Famous French mathematicians, as for example Appell, Catalan, Chasles, Cauchy, Fourier, Hermite, Hugoniot, Jordan, Lagrange, Laplace, P. Lévy, Liouville, S. Mandelbrojt, Monge, Painlevé, Picard, Poincaré, Poisson, Rouché, Saint Venant, signed articles in this journal. On the occasion of its centenary issue, in 1895, the journal published the fundamental paper “Analysis Situs” by Poincaré. Periodicity The pdf and TeX version of the accepted articles are available online as soon as the copyediting is achieved. A printed volume is published at the end of each year. Access policy JEP provides immediate online open access to its content. JEP adheres to the principles of Fair Open Access, is indexed in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) and is a member of the Free Journal Network. JEP follows a true Open Access policy: No subscription is needed to access the articles, and no download fees are charged. Please, consult the section Legal Notice for legal statements and copyright policy. Authors are not charged for publication in this journal, and the journal does not request any submission fee nor any article processing fee. A printed volume is published yearly and sold at a reasonable cost by the Éditions de l’École polytechnique. This Open Access policy is made possible due to the support of various Institutions: École polytechnique, CNRS, Université Grenoble Alpes, and for 2025-2027, the KOALA Project.
