Dear Colleagues,
 
We sincerely welcome all of you with our great honor to the 2022 International Symposium on Nonlinear Theory and Its Applications (NOLTA2022). The NOLTA2022 is organized by the NOLTA Society, IEICE, as its flagship symposium in cooperation with the Technical Committee on Nonlinear Problems, IEICE, and the Technical Committee on Complex Communication Science, IEICE.

Many excellent papers were submitted, so that we have a variety of high quality presentations in the regular and special sessions. Furthermore, three remarkable professors from U.S.A., Sweden, and Japan will give their exciting plenary talks. We surely believe that the NOLTA2022 will provide a rich opportunity for researchers, especially students, to exchange their latest, precious, and valuable ideas over the Internet.

The authors of the presented papers in the NOLTA2022 have privilege to submit the full versions of their papers to the Special Section on Recent Progress in Nonlinear Theory and Its Applications in the international journal, NOLTA, IEICE, which will be issued on April 1, 2023. In addition, the Student Paper Award will be given to the excellent student presentations during the symposium to encourage young researchers.

Finally, we would like to thank all organizing committee members for their efforts and cooperation. We also thank all the participants of the NOLTA2022 for their contributions. We hope participants will attend multiple sessions taking advantage of full online format, and enjoy the NOLTA2022.
