Journal of Computational Algebra

Resumen/Descripción – provisto por la editorial en inglés

The Journal of Computational Algebra publishes novel research about computation in, and with, algebraic or discrete structures, such that both mathematics and algorithms contribute to the new result. This includes: Description and design of new algorithms for calculations in algebraic structures, and analysis of such algorithms. New and interesting mathematical results, such as classifications or the resolving of open conjectures, that have been obtained through computation, going beyond the application of standard methods or standard use of existing implementations. Algorithms for concrete (real-world) applications, that use or build on algebraic or discrete structures. Survey articles that describe algorithmic methods within the scope of the journal, which have not been properly described in the scientific literature. Results obtained are expected to be mathematically correct and to contain new mathematics and algorithmic approaches should go beyond a brute-force exhaustion of possibilities. Purely heuristic results, or results whose correctness cannot be established, would in general not be appropriate. While publicly available implementations, in particular if general purpose, are welcome, papers whose main contribution is a new implementation of existing algorithms, or whose focus or novelty is purely on the side of software engineering would similarly be not appropriate. The journal publishes Full-Length Research Articles, Review Articles and Short Communications. Short Communications, comprising not more than 5 pages (including references and examples), should contain new results of interest to the community, give sufficient references to place themselves in the context of the literature, include a justification (such as proofs or timings) and be meaningful without supplemental publications. They should not aim to give a comprehensive history of a problem, or present a full theoretical and practical analysis of a new method. Short Communications could, for example, be about: - Modifications to, or new strategies for, existing algorithms. - Improved analyses / justifications of known algorithms. - Utilization or combination of existing techniques or mathematical tools in a new context. This could include example calculations. - Pointing out (previously not observed) cases in which "standard" computational methods do not work well. - Presenting a concrete computational problem that has arisen in another area of mathematics, is not directly related to known problems and, so far, is lacking a fully satisfactory computational approach.
