La Matematica is a peer-reviewed journal featuring high-quality research from all areas of the mathematical sciences. It is dedicated to publishing research papers describing novel mathematical ideas and tools, survey articles on current trends that appeal to a wide range of readers, short communications and reviews. La Matematica seeks to encourage innovation, engagement and interdisciplinary research collaboration. As the flagship journal of the Association for Women in Mathematics, our goal is to support the flourishing of all mathematicians by adopting equitable practices in STEM publishing. La Matematica seeks to publish a variety of article types in all fields of mathematics: pure, applied, and computational. We will include work on a wide spectrum of topics, ranging from mathematics education and the history of mathematics to mathematically-grounded work in data science, computer science, and statistics. Occasionally we will also publish special thematic issues. The journal offers full-length research articles and short communications that describe new theoretical results and innovative practical applications. Reports on computational studies and case studies are accompanied by relevant software and data. Survey articles, written in a clear and inviting style, appeal to readers from all backgrounds, encouraging trans-disciplinary engagement with mathematical ideas. La Matematica also publishes book reviews to help our readers navigate the array of new publications.
