線性代數及其應用程序發表文章，為矩陣理論和有限維線性代數在代數、算術、組合、幾何或數值方面提供新的信息或新的見解。它還發表文章，給予矩陣理論或線性代數的重要應用，其他分支的數學和其他科學。也歡迎提供有關矩陣理論和線性代數歷史發展的新信息或新觀點的文章。說明性文章可以作為一個主題的介紹，為相關領域的工作者，并把一個前沿的研究是鼓勵。偶爾出版對書籍的評論，以及提供矩陣理論和線性代數重大會議歷史記錄的會議報告。以前在會議或會議以外的類似會議記錄中已全部或部分發表的文章，不應以線性代數及其應用程序的形式提交出版。除了定期出版的刊物外，還會出版一些專刊，這些專刊以當前感興趣的主題為主題，向線性代數領域的杰出人士致敬，或專門刊登在會議上發表的論文。調查應向總編之一提出。

Linear Algebra and its Applications publishes articles that contribute new information or new insights to matrix theory and finite dimensional linear algebra in their algebraic, arithmetic, combinatorial, geometric, or numerical aspects. It also publishes articles that give significant applications of matrix theory or linear algebra to other branches of mathematics and to other sciences. Articles that provide new information or perspectives on the historical development of matrix theory and linear algebra are also welcome. Expository articles which can serve as an introduction to a subject for workers in related areas and which bring one to the frontiers of research are encouraged. Reviews of books are published occasionally as are conference reports that provide an historical record of major meetings on matrix theory and linear algebra.Articles that have previously been published - fully or in part - in conference or similar proceedings which have been made available outside of the conference should not be submitted for publication in Linear Algebra and Its Applications.In addition to regular issues, special issues are published which focus on a theme of current interest, which honor a prominent individual within the field of linear algebra, or which are devoted to papers presented at a conference. Inquiries should be addressed to one of the editors-in-chief.
