MFAT is a journal publishing original reviewed articles and surveys on general methods and techniques of the functional analysis and topology with special emphasis on applications in modern mathematical physics.

The papers are considered for publication if they have not been published previously and are not submitted for publication elsewhere. Based on peer-review reports, the articles are accepted or rejected by the editorial board, which contains experts in many subfields.

To submit your paper in MFAT use the submission page ou send the paper in PDF format directly to mfat@imath.kiev.ua. Based on peer-review reports, the articles are accepted or rejected by the editorial board, which contains experts in many subfields.

Your article can be prepared for submission in any TeX-style of your choice; initial uploads should be in PDF format. However, after the refereeing process we will ask you to prepare the paper using the MFAT style file.

Bibliography should be prepared using the BibTeX package and sent as a separate file in the bib format (see bibliography-example.bib for an example). The authors should consult Mathematical Review for standard abbrevi­ations of journals' names. All references in the bibliography should be cited in the text.

Manuscripts submitted are expected to be

• new and original;
• well organized and clearly written;
• of interest to the scientific community;
• not published previously and not submitted for publication elsewhere.

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not agree to these guidelines.

• I, the corresponding author, am authorized by all of my co-authors to submit this paper.
• Required items of the paper:
  (a) for each authors: name, affiliation (if appropriate), and e-mail address if available;
  (b) the title and a brief abstract (about 150 words or less);
  (c) keywords and Mathematics Subject Classification for the article.
• The paper has not been published previously and are not under consideration for publication in any other journal or book.
