MFCS 2025 - First Call for Papers
========================================================
The 50th conference on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science
(MFCS) will take place in:
Warsaw, Poland August 25-29, 2025
MFCS is among the conferences with the longest history in the field —
the first conference in the series was held already in 1972.
Traditionally, the conference moved between the Czech Republic,
Poland, and Slovakia; while since 2013, the conference has traveled
around Europe. The conference will be preceded by the Young Research
Forum Workshop intended for a younger audience.

Submission guidelines
========================================================
1) Papers must present original research on the theory of computer
science. No prior publication and no simultaneous submission to other
publication outlets (either a conference or a journal) is allowed.
Authors are encouraged to also make full versions of their submissions
freely accessible in an on-line repository such as ArXiv.
2) Submissions take the form of an extended abstract of no more than
15 pages (LIPIcs document class), excluding references and a clearly
labelled appendix. The appendix may consist either of omitted proofs
or of a full version of the submission, and it will be read at the
discretion of program committee members. The extended abstract has to
present the merits of the paper and its main contributions clearly,
and describe the key concepts and technical ideas used to obtain the
results. Submissions must provide the proofs which can enable the main
mathematical claims of the paper to be verified.
3) Submissions authored or co-authored by members of the program
committee are allowed.
4) During the rebuttal phase, authors are encouraged (but not
required) to respond to the initial reviews. Further instructions will
be sent to the authors of the submitted papers in due time.
5) At least one author of each accepted paper is expected to register
for the conference, and all talks are in-person. In exceptional cases
(e.g. unexpected personal reasons) remote talks (pre-recorded or live)
might be allowed.
6) Papers authored only by students should be marked as such upon
submission in order to be eligible for the best student paper award.
