Special Issue on SI: The impact of 4*50 years research in mathematical optimization Submission Date: 2026-11-30 The VOCAL Conference is a meeting point for the Central European mathematical optimization community and many of their international colleagues in this research area. In 2026, four professors — Tibor Csendes, Goran Lesaja, Yurii Nesterov and Zsolt Páles — will celebrate their 70th birthdays. The VOCAL Conference in 2026 will celebrate their scientific achievements and influence. Together, our four colleagues have accumulated approximately 200 years working on mathematical optimization. Our aim is to publish scientific papers related to the work of these colleagues from the VOCAL Conference community and beyond. The special issue will focus on the following classes of problems aiming at both theoretical questions and solution methods: linear optimization, linear complementarity problems, semidefinite optimization and symmetric optimization. Papers are also welcome from the following areas: global optimization, vector optimization, game theory, duality theory, generalized convexity, stochastic programming and integer programming. Since our community is also interested in novel applications of operations research, such as models and solution methods related to big data, machine learning, and neural networks, papers on these topics will receive our welcome and attention as well. Submission deadline: 30 November 2026 Guest Editors Giancarlo Bigi (lead guest editor), [email protected] Botond Bertók, [email protected] Etienne de Klerk, [email protected] Marianna E.-Nagy, [email protected]

Special Issue on SI: Nonlinear Analysis and Optimization Theory: In Honor of Professor Simeon Reich's 80th Birthday Submission Date: 2026-12-31 Professor Simeon Reich (born 1948, Krakow, Poland) is an esteemed Professor Emeritus of Mathematics at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, where he received his BSc (1970) and DSc (1973) degrees. His academic appointments have spanned numerous prestigious institutions globally, including the University of Chicago, the University of California at Berkeley and Santa Barbara, Tel Aviv University, the University of Southern California, the Tokyo Institute of Technology, and UMCS (Lublin). Professor Reich is a leading authority in Nonlinear Analysis and Optimization. His research expertise covers a wide range of topics, such as nonlinear operator theory, nonlinear evolution and integral equations, the identification and estimation of nonlinear distributed parameter systems, infinite dimensional holomorphy, variational inequalities, and sequential and parallel algorithms in feasibility and optimization. Professor Reich's profound scholarly contributions are evidenced by his extensive publication record, which includes four monographs, twenty-one edited volumes, and more than 700 research papers in his specialization. Furthermore, he has made significant contributions to mentorship, having successfully supervised seventeen PhD students and ten MSc students. He is listed in the Stanford/Elsevier Top 2% Scientists. The purpose of this Special Issue is to pay tribute to the significant contributions in these fields of Professor Simeon Reich and provide some important recent advances in theory, methods, and applications. We cordially and earnestly invite researchers to contribute their original and high-quality research papers which will inspire advances in nonlinear analysis, optimization, and their applications. Potential topics include, but are not limited to: • Nonlinear analysis; • Fixed point theory; • Non-smooth analysis and optimization; • Algorithms for nonlinear problems; • Variational analysis; • Convex analysis Submission deadline: December 31, 2026
