About the Journal
The ISQGD Journal of Probability and Stochastic Dynamics (JPStD) is an international, peer-reviewed scholarly journal publishing original research articles, survey papers, and expository contributions in probability theory, stochastic processes, stochastic analysis, and stochastic dynamics. The journal also welcomes work connecting these fields with dynamical systems, geometry, analysis, and interdisciplinary applications.
JPStD is published by the International Society for Quality Growth and Development (ISQGD), Houston, Texas, USA. The journal provides a forum for rigorous theoretical and applied research, with particular interest in stochastic dynamics, random structures, and connections between probability and other areas of mathematics.

Peer Review and Editorial Independence
Manuscripts submitted to the journal are evaluated through an editorial and peer-review process designed to maintain academic quality, fairness, scholarly rigor, and independence.
Each submission is initially assessed by the Editor-in-Chief or by a member of the editorial team specifically authorized by the Editor-in-Chief for suitability within the journal’s scope and for compliance with basic scholarly and ethical standards. Manuscripts considered suitable for further evaluation are assigned to an appropriate Editor and, as appropriate, to qualified reviewers with relevant subject expertise.
Editorial evaluation may include substantive scholarly assessment by members of the editorial team, together with reports from independently selected reviewers, as appropriate to the manuscript and the needs of the review process.
The selection of Editors and reviewers is an editorial responsibility. Authors should not attempt to influence the assignment of a particular Editor or reviewer. Editorial assignments and reviewer selection are made on the basis of subject expertise, availability, independence, and the needs of the manuscript and the review process.
Editors and reviewers are expected to disclose any actual or potential conflict of interest that could affect, or reasonably appear to affect, the impartiality of the evaluation. When appropriate, the Editor-in-Chief may reassign a manuscript, appoint additional reviewers, or take other measures necessary to preserve the integrity and independence of the editorial process.
Editorial decisions are based on the scholarly quality, originality, relevance, clarity, and contribution of the manuscript, together with the evaluations obtained during the editorial and peer-review process. Personal relationships, institutional affiliations, nationality, or other considerations unrelated to the scholarly merits of the work must not influence editorial decisions.
The Editor-in-Chief retains overall responsibility for the integrity and proper administration of the journal’s editorial and peer-review process.
