==========================================================
The Symposium on Fundamentals of Computation Theory (FCT) was established
in 1977 as a forum for researchers interested in all aspects of theoretical
computer science, and in particular algorithms, complexity, formal and
logical methods. FCT is a biennial series of conferences, previously held
in Poland, Germany, Hungary, Sweden, Russia, Romania, Latvia, Norway,
United Kingdom, France, and Denmark. The last five Symposia were held in
Oslo (2011), Liverpool (2013), Gdansk (2015), Bordeaux (2017), and
Copenhagen (2019).

FCT 2021 will be held completely online, via the Zoom platform, due to the
COVID-19 pandemic. It will be hosted by the National Technical University
of Athens.
