Proceedings of the International Conference in Mathematics and Application 2016

This issue is devoted to publish significant advances in difference equations and related research topics. Its goal is to stimulate further research and highlight recent advances  in these fields as well as to promote, encourage, and bring together researchers in the fields of applied mathematics that use difference equations as their springboard to develop a wide range of methodologies, tools and techniques applied in all fields of research. It is open to research articles on qualitative behavior of solutions of ordinary, partial, delay, fractional, abstract, stochastic, fuzzy, and set-values differential equations.
This special issue’s main aim is to spread new trends in these areas and promote the exchange of ideas between researchers who participate in the International Conference in Mathematics an Applications-Mahidol University to be organized by the Centre of Excellence in Mathematics, Commission on Higher Education, Thailand, during December 17-19 2016.
