About the Journal

Focus and Coverage

Journal of Mathematical Physics is published by the American Institute of Physics; content is published online daily, collected into monthly online and printed issues (12 issues per year). Its purpose is the publication of papers in mathematical physics–that is, the application of mathematics to problems in physics and the development of mathematical methods suitable for such applications and for the formulation of physical theories. The mathematics should be written in a manner that is understandable to theoretical physicists. Occasionally, reviews of mathematical subjects relevant to physics and special issues combining papers on a topic of current interest may be published.

Journal of Mathematical Physics welcomes original research of the highest quality in all active areas of mathematical physics, including the following:

 2011 Journal Citation Reports® (Thomson Reuters, 2012)*:
Among the Top 5 highly cited journals in Mathematical Physics (Thomson Reuters, 2012)

* Data from the 2011 Journal Citation Reports® Science Edition (Thomson Reuters, 2012).
