Guest Editors: Fatihcan M. Atay, Deniz Eroglu, Jürgen Kurths, Eckehard Schӧll
We invite contributions for a special issue dedicated to the analysis and control of nonlinear systems operating far from thermodynamic equilibrium. This issue aims to showcase innovative research that leverages insights from nonlinear dynamics, classical control theory, and emerging quantum control methods — and beyond.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following areas:
- Dynamical Systems and Nonlinear Phenomena: Research on regulation, bifurcations, oscillatory and chaotic dynamics, self-organization, methods for controlling nonlinear systems, and the application of machine learning techniques for inference and modeling.
- Quantum & Coherent Control: Advances in quantum information and coherent control techniques, and their applications in guiding complex systems.
- Interdisciplinary Approaches and Complex Networks: Complexity, emergence, adaptation, and self-organization. Studies that integrate dynamical systems theory with applications in physical, biological, social, and engineering domains. Contributions from communities such as economics, neuroscience, and network dynamics——including the exploration of higher-order interactions——and adaptive systems are welcome.
We particularly welcome submissions that bridge established and emerging disciplines, offering innovative strategies for understanding and controlling complex systems.
Articles should be submitted to the Editorial Office of EPJ ST via the submission system, and should be clearly identified as intended for the topical issue “Analysis and Control of Complex Physical Systems”.
More detailed author information including paper types can be found in the Submission Guidelines. For the preparation of the manuscripts a special latex template (preferably single-column layout) is available here.

If the institution of the CORRESPONDING AUTHOR is part of such a Transformative Agreement, the Open Access fee will be covered by the agreement partner. All agreements are listed with more details under TRANSFORMATIVE Agreements. Eligibility will be automatically verified when the corresponding author is requested to complete the relevant affiliation information after acceptance of the paper during the production process. Corresponding authors not affiliated to institutes with Transformative Agreements are redirected to proceed with “Please select your publishing model” and have to decide between paying the current Open Access fee or choosing the subscription option without any publication charges.
