Advances in Pure Mathematics (APM) is an international journal dedicated to the latest advancement of ordered algebraic structures. The goal of this journal is to provide a platform for scientists and academicians all over the world to promote, share, and discuss various new issues and developments in different areas of ordered algebraic structures.
On November 20, 1924, French American mathematician Benoite B. Mandelbrot was born. Mandelbrot worked on a wide range of mathematical problems, including mathematical physics and quantitative finance, but is best known as the popularizer of fractal geometry. He was the one who coined the term 'fractal' and described the Mandelbrot set named after him.
