Acknowledgement to supervisor and PhD scholarship in a paper?

We are in a final stage of writing a paper. My contribution to this paper also forms a chapter of my PhD thesis

I have two co-athurs. They are assistant professors in a different field. They have mentioned in the acknowledgement, a number of grants that support them. Should I also acknowledge my PhD scholarship?


Also we have cited to some papers of my supervisor. He helped me throughout this work giving me ideas, suggestions and advices. (How) should I mention this in the acknowledgement section?

My field relies on the boundaries of Computer Science and Mathematics, if it makes any difference.

You would acknowledge the grant that directly paid for your research and time. I don't think you would acknowledge your supervisors grant unless that was used for your research.

I would put that said supervisor as a co-author.

Yes. Maybe acknowledge them- for their help, assistance, etc. (good politics!)- but not their grant, which is, after all, theirs to acknowledge; yours is for you.

Thanks guys for your advice.
