Journal of Nonlinear and Variational Analysis is an international peer-reviewed scientific journal devoted exclusively to the publication of high-quality research papers in the fields of nonlinear and variational analysis. One volume is published each year, and each volume consists of six issues. Journal of Nonlinear and Variational Analysis is published by the Biemdas Academic Publishers, Canada. The following is the editorial workflow that every manuscript submitted to Journal of Nonlinear and Variational Analysis (JNVA) undergoes during the course of the review process. Manuscripts must be submitted on the understanding that they have not been published elsewhere and are not currently under consideration by another journal. Authors submit their manuscripts by email (PDF format) to Editorial Office at [email protected]. Once a manuscript is submitted for publication, the manuscript is checked by the journal’s editorial office to ensure that it is suitable to go through the normal peer review process. Once this is done, the manuscript is sent to the Editors-in-Chief of the journal. The Editors-in-Chief inspect the submitted manuscript. If the Editors-in-Chief determine that the manuscript is not of sufficient quality to go through the normal review process or if the subject of the manuscript is not appropriate to the journal scope, the Editors-in-Chief rejects the manuscript with no further processing. If the Editors-in-Chief determine that the submitted manuscript is of sufficient quality and falls within the scope of the journal, the handling editor-chief sends the manuscript to one of the Associate Editors, who manages the peer-review process for the manuscript.The peer-review process is single blinded, i.e., the reviewers know who the authors of the manuscript are, but the authors do not have access to the information of who the peer-reviewers are. The Handling Editor can decide, after inspecting the submitted manuscript, that it should be rejected without further processing. Otherwise, the Handling Editor assigns the manuscript to external reviewers for peer-review. The reviewers submit their reports on the manuscripts along with their recommendation of one of the following actions to the Handling Editor: “Accept Submission,” “Minor Revisions Required,” “Major Revisions Required,” and “Decline Submission”. When all reviewers have submitted their reports, the Handling Editor can make one of the following editorial recommendations: “Accept Submission,”
