Combinatorics, Probability and Computing
Combinatorics, Probability and Computing is a peer-reviewed academic journal in mathematics, published by Cambridge University Press. Its editor-in-chief is Béla Bollobás, and it specializes in papers concerning combinatorics, probability theory, and theoretical computer science. Currently, it publishes six issues annually. As with other journals from the same publisher, it follows a hybrid green/gold open access policy, in which authors may either place copies of their papers in an institutional repository after a six-month embargo period, or pay an open access charge to make their papers free to read on the journal's web site.[1]
The journal was founded by Bollobás in 1992.[2] Since 2007 it has been ranked by SCImago Journal Rank as a first-quartile journal in four areas: applied mathematics, computational theory, statistics and probability, and theoretical computer science.[3] Fields Medalist Timothy Gowers calls it "a personal favourite" among combinatorics journals and writes that it "maintains a high standard".[4]
