Aims and scope

When submitting a manuscript, authors will be taken to a service called Paperpal Preflight, an AI-driven tool that checks manuscripts against the journal's author guidelines. Authors are free to use or bypass this step and submit directly to ScholarOne.

The Arab Journal of Mathematical Sciences (AJMS) is the official science journal of the Saudi Association for Mathematical Sciences. It is dedicated to the publication of original and expository papers in pure and applied mathematics, and is reviewed and edited by an international group of scholars.

AJMS will accept submissions in the mainstream areas of pure and applied mathematics, including algebra, analysis, geometry, differential equations, and discrete mathematics.

To submit to the journal, please go to ScholarOne. Please follow the author guidelines before submitting.

All articles are published Open Access, so are made freely available at no charge to the author.

AJMS operates a single-anonymous peer review model. All articles undergo an initial assessment by the journal editor. If they are considered suitable for peer review, articles will then be reviewed by a minimum of one external reviewer to assess their suitability for publication. Final responsibility for editorial decisions rests with the journal editor.

Arab Journal of Mathematical Sciences is published by Emerald Group Publishing on behalf of King Saud University, who owns the title. AJMS is published under a platinum OA arrangement, in that all charges for publishing an OA article in the Journal are funded by King Saud University. Therefore, there is no charge to the author.
