Vol. 18 No. 1 (2017): Divulgaciones Matemáticas
The Editorial Board of Divulgaciones Matemáticas is pleased to present the Vol. 18, No. 1, 2017. Articles contained in this issue are those processed during the year 2017 and were evaluated and accepted for publication.
It is important to note that the journal received a total of 5 manuscripts, which were submitted for evaluation and possible publication. One of these articles did not comply with the format of the journal, so it was rejected and the author was invited to write the article using the template of the journal, without obtaining a response. One (1) manuscript failed the evaluation of the referees and only three (3) complied with the requirements requested by the journal and approved the evaluation of the respective referees. However, in spite of the small number of articles, the Editorial Board decided to publish this issue to show the mathematical community that the journal is still working, despite the difficulties, is still active and makes efforts to keep the highest possible quality level.
The editorial work related to this issue is the result of the efforts of some members of the Department of Mathematics of the Experimental Faculty of Sciences. The Editors want to express their gratitude to all of those who made this issue possible: to the authors of the presented works, who gave their vote of confidence to the journal; to the referees, who evaluated the articles with selfless work, guaranteeing the quality standards of the journal and significantly improving the way of working; to the editorial team of Divulgaciones Matemáticas; and especially to Professor José Heber Nieto, for his contribution to the Problems and Solutions section. To all of them, thanks a lot.
Finally, the Editorial Board of Divulgaciones Matemáticas offer an apology to the authors of the articles for any inconvenience caused by the delay in the publication of this issue. In addition, we invite the Venezuelan and international mathematical community to continue giving their support by submitting their articles to our journal for evaluation and possible publication.
