Journal of Combinatorial Designs (JCD)

The Journal of Combinatorial Designs is a peer-reviewed international scientific journal specializing in combinatorial design theory — a core area of discrete mathematics that intersects with algebra, geometry, coding theory, computer science, and graph theory. Founded in 1993, the journal serves as a primary outlet for researchers to publish original proofs, novel constructions, structural results, and computational methods related to combinatorial designs, including balanced incomplete block designs, pairwise balanced designs, Latin squares, orthogonal arrays, finite geometries, and factorisations of graphs. Over its history, the journal has disseminated influential work on theoretical foundations as well as practical algorithms that impact cryptography, error-correcting codes, and optimization problems. Topics covered also include extremal combinatorics, algebraic and probabilistic methods in design theory, and applications of designs to statistical experiments and network theory. The journal is indexed in major bibliographic databases such as Scopus and Web of Science, reflecting its role in advancing mathematical research. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Journal of Combinatorial Designs continues to contribute to the deepening understanding of combinatorial structures and to support a vibrant international community of mathematicians and theoretical computer scientists working on fundamental and applied aspects of combinatorics.
