Call For Papers | |||||||||||||||
The 12th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science (ITCS) conference will be held online from January 6-8, 2021. More detailed information about the format of the conference will be posted after the author notifications are sent.
ITCS seeks to promote research that carries a strong conceptual message (e.g., introducing a new concept, model or understanding, opening a new line of inquiry within traditional or interdisciplinary areas, introducing new mathematical techniques and methodologies, or new applications of known techniques). ITCS welcomes both conceptual and technical contributions whose contents will advance and inspire the greater theory community. Important dates Submission deadline: September 8, 2020 (05:59pm PDT) Notification to authors: November 1, 2020 Conference dates: January 6-8, 2021 Program committee Andris Ambainis, University of Latvia Nima Anari, Stanford Elette Boyle, IDC Herzliya Mark Braverman, Princeton Sebastien Bubeck, Microsoft Research Claire Mathieu, CNRS, Paris Edith Cohen, Google Anindya De, University of Pennsylania Uriel Feige, Weizmann Institute Kira Goldner, Columbia Monika Henzinger, University of Vienna Maurice Herlihy, Brown Sam Hopkins, UC Berkeley and MIT Tali Kaufman, Bar-Ilan University Adam Klivans, UT Austin Gillat Kol, Princeton Alexandra Kolla, University of Colorado, Boulder Lap Chi Lau, University of Waterloo James R. Lee, University of Washington (chair) Jamie Morgenstern, University of Washington Anand Natajaran, MIT Alantha Newman, Université Grenoble Alpes Lorenzo Orecchia, University of Chicago Debmalya Panigrahi, Duke University Richard Peng, Georgia Tech Ron Rothblum, Technion Aviad Rubinstein, Stanford Tselil Schramm, Stanford Leonard Schulman, California Institute of Technology Anastasios Sidiropoulos, University of Illinois at Chicago Nikhil Srivastava, UC Berkeley Ola Svensson, EPFL Avishay Tal, UC Berkeley Luca Trevisan, Bocconi University Jan Vondrak, Stanford Matt Weinberg, Princeton Amir Yehudayoff, Technion Mark Zhandry, Princeton and NTT Research Submissions Authors should upload a PDF of the paper to hotcrp using the following link: https://itcs2021.hotcrp.com. The font size should be at least 11 point and the paper should be single column. Beyond these, there are no formatting requirements. Authors are required to submit a COI declaration upon submission. Submissions should not have the authors' names on them. Instead, author and institution information is to be uploaded separately. PC members will still be able to access author names in the reviewing process if they feel they need to; the intent of this procedure is to make it easier for PC members to remove unconscious biases. You are free (and encouraged) to post your paper on your web page, the arXiv, etc. Authors should strive to make their paper accessible not only to experts in their subarea, but also to the theory community at large. The submission should include proofs of all central claims. In addition, it is recommended that the paper contain, within the first 10 pages, a concise and clear presentation of the merits of the paper, including a discussion of its significance, innovations, and place within (or outside) of our field's scope and literature. The committee will put a premium on writing that conveys clearly, in as simple and straightforward a manner as possible, what the paper accomplishes. All submissions will be treated as confidential, and will only be disclosed to the committee and their chosen sub-referees. In addition, the program committee may consult with journal editors and program chairs of other conferences about controversial issues such as parallel submissions. |
