Scope
Aims, scope and focus
Journal of Algebra and Its Applications is published by World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd and is in Zone 4 of Mathematics in the CAS Journal Ranking (2025 upgraded edition). By OpenAlex counts of its recent articles, its largest topics are Algebraic structures and combinatorial models, Advanced Topics in Algebra and Rings, Modules, and Algebras, together about 46.1% of its articles. Its main subfields are Algebra and Number Theory. (generated from OpenAlex topic counts and CAS ranking data)
The Journal of Algebra and Its Applications will publish papers both on theoretical and on applied aspects of Algebra. There is special interest in papers that point out innovative links between areas of Algebra and fields of application. As the field of Algebra continues to experience tremendous growth and diversification, we intend to provide the mathematical community with a central source for information on both the theoretical and the applied aspects of the discipline. While the journal will be primarily devoted to the publication of original research, extraordinary expository articles that encourage communication between algebraists and experts on areas of application as well as those presenting the state of the art on a given algebraic sub-discipline will be considered.
