[DMANET] Call for Papers: Special Issue JOC on Graph and Hypergraph Limits

Call for Papers: Special Issue on Graph & Hypergraph Limits,
Journal of Combinatorics (www.intlpress.com/JOC)

Aim and Scope:
The development of a limit notion based on homomorphism densities for
graphs, hypergraphs, and other combinatorial structures, has had
interesting ramifications in combinatorics and probability, and has found
applications in extremal graph theory, statistical physics, and computer
science. Papers are solicited on all topics relating to this new theory,
including (but not restricted to): homomorphisms, quasi-random graphs,
quantum graphs, limits of sparse graphs, extremal graph theory, random
infinite graphs.

Guest Editor:
Jeannette Janssen, Dalhousie University

Journal:
The new Journal of Combinatorics (JOC), launched in 2010, publishes
high-quality research papers in all branches of combinatorics and related
areas, including both the structural as well as the algorithmic aspects of
these subjects. (Prior to 2010, International Press published the print
version of the "Electronic Journal of Combinatorics".)
Editors-in-Chief are Ron Graham and Fan Chung.

Deadline:
The submission deadline is March 30, 2012. The Special Issue is scheduled
for publication early 2013.

Submission:
Manuscripts should be submitted through the JOC submission site:
http://www.intlpress.com/JOC/JOC-Submissions.php
Authors should prepare and submit their manuscripts according to the
directions given at this site. IMPORTANT: Authors should include the
message "for the Special issue on graph limits" in "Author's comments to
the editor" when they submit their manuscripts.

Papers should contain original research, and not have been previously
published nor be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere.
Refereeing and the selection of papers follow the normal standards of JOC.
For further questions and communications, please contact the Guest Editor
at janssen@mathstat.dal.ca.
