| Cioaba joins Editorial Board of 'Discrete Mathematics' | Cioaba joins Editorial Board of 'Discrete Mathematics' | | 4/2/2021 4:00:00 AM | | <p><strong>Sebastian Cioaba</strong>, professor of mathematical sciences, has recently joined the Editorial Board of the journal <a href="https://www.journals.elsevier.com/discrete-mathematics/editorial-board"><em>Discrete Mathematics</em></a> as an associate editor. The research areas covered by <em>Discrete Mathematics</em> include graph and hypergraph theory, enumeration, coding theory, block designs, the combinatorics of partially ordered sets, extremal set theory, matroid theory, algebraic combinatorics, discrete geometry, matrices, discrete probability and parts of cryptography. Items in the journal, which was established in 1971, include research articles (Contributions or Notes, depending on length) and survey/expository articles (Perspectives). Efforts are made to process the submission of Notes (short articles) quickly. The Perspectives section features expository articles accessible to a broad audience that cast new light or present unifying points of view on well-known or insufficiently-known topics. <em>Discrete Mathematics</em> also publishes occasional special issues containing selected papers. Such issues are fully refereed and adhere to the normal high standards of the journal. Cioaba also serves on the editorial boards of <a href="https://www.journals.elsevier.com/linear-algebra-and-its-applications/editorial-board"><em>Linear Algebra and its Applications</em></a>, <a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/action/journalInformation?show=editorialBoard&journalCode=glma20&"><em>Linear and Multilinear Algebra</em></a> and <a href="https://repository.uwyo.edu/ela/editorialboard.html"><em>The Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra</em></a>.</p> | | Uncropped Vertical | | GP0|#99d961eb-8936-415c-9024-28a13cec289a;L0|#099d961eb-8936-415c-9024-28a13cec289a|Awards and Honors;GTSet|#0a3b6244-764a-4413-b2f1-4b4c15da868c | 2021.00000000000 | https://www.cas.udel.edu/Lists/ForTheRecord/DispForm.aspx?ID=74 | |
