VNUHCM Journal of Mathematics and Computing Science's Editorial Policies follow the recommendations of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) for guidance on policies and procedures related to publication ethics.

Submission of a manuscript to a VNUHCM Journal of Mathematics and Computing Science implies that all authors have read and agreed to its content and that the manuscript conforms to the journal's policies.

Duplication publication

Any manuscript submitted to a VNUHCM Journal of Mathematics and Computing Science journal must be original and the manuscript, or substantial parts of it, must not be under consideration by any other journal. In any case where there is the potential for overlap or duplication we require that authors are transparent. Authors should declare any potentially overlapping publications on submission. Any overlapping publications should be cited. Any ‘in press’ or unpublished manuscript cited, or relevant to the Editor’s and reviewers' assessment of the manuscript, should be made available if requested by the Editor. VNUHCM Journal of Mathematics and Computing Science reserves the right to judge potentially overlapping or redundant publications on a case-by-case basis.

In general, the manuscript should not already have been formally published in any journal or in any other citable form.

Confidentiality
Editors will treat all manuscripts submitted to the journal in confidence. The journal adheres to COPE's Ethical Guidelines for Peer Reviewers. Reviewers are therefore required to respect the confidentiality of the peer review process and not reveal any details of a manuscript or its review, during or after the peer-review process, beyond the information released by the journal. If reviewers wish to involve a colleague in the review process they should first obtain permission from the journal. The Editor should be informed of the names of any individuals who assisted in the review process when the report is returned.

VNUHCM Journal of Mathematics and Computing Science will not share manuscripts with third parties outside of VNUHCM Journal of Mathematics and Computing Science except in cases of suspected misconduct.

Corrections and retractions
Rarely, it may be necessary for VNUHCM Journal of Mathematics and Computing Science to publish corrections to, or retractions of, articles published in its journals, so as to maintain the integrity of the academic record.

In line with VNUHCM Journal of Mathematics and Computing Science policy, corrections to, or retractions of, published articles will be made by publishing an Erratum or a Retraction article, without altering the original article in any way other than to add a prominent link to the Erratum/Retraction article. The original article remains in the public domain and the subsequent Erratum or Retraction will be widely indexed. In the exceptional event that material is considered to infringe certain rights or is defamatory, we may have to remove that material from our site and archive sites.

Corrections

Changes to published articles that affect the interpretation and conclusion of the article, but do not fully invalidate the article, will, at the Editor(s)' discretion, be corrected via publication of an Erratum that is indexed and linked to the original article.

Retractions

On rare occasions, when the scientific information in an article is substantially undermined, it may be necessary for published articles to be retracted. The journal will follow the COPE guidelines in such cases. Retraction articles are indexed and linked to the original article.
