=======================================================
3rd Workshop on Combinatorial Reconfiguration
affiliated with ICALP 2023
July 10, 2023
Paderborn, Germany
Web site:   http://www.dais.is.tohoku.ac.jp/coreworkshop2023.html
Submission: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=core2023
Submission deadline: April 22, 23:59 AoE
Notification: May 8
=======================================================
* Aim and Scope
Combinatorial Reconfiguration studies reachability and related questions 
over combinatorial structures. These types of questions arise in many 
areas of mathematics, computer science, and related fields. A typical 
example asks if the solution space of a Boolean formula is connected 
with respect to the Boolean cube topology, formed by flipping one bit at 
the time. Another example of a well-studied application is sampling from 
a very large configuration space by simulating a Markov chain involving 
local reconfigurations. Although there is now a wealth of publications 
on many aspects of Combinatorial Reconfiguration, including a general 
framework, many questions remain open. The study of Combinatorial 
Reconfiguration brings together problems and techniques from a variety 
of fields in mathematics and computer science, such as combinatorial 
game theory, graph and hypergraph theory, enumeration, probability 
theory, random sampling via Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods, 
bioinformatics, complexity theory, discrete geometry, statistical 
physics, and many others.
With the success of the workshops affiliated with ICALP 2021 and ICALP 
2022, this workshop aims at strengthening relations among researchers in 
various fields of theoretical computer science and mathematics, and 
broadening interest in Combinatorial Reconfiguration to a wider 
audience. Two invited talks by leading experts are planned as a way to 
build bridges to closely-related fields. We also plan to report the 
results of the 2nd Combinatorial Reconfiguration Challenge (CoRe 
Challenge 2023) during the workshop.

The workshop is planned to be held in person in Paderborn.
The workshop is held in cooperation with JSPS KAKENHI project "Fusion of 
Computer Science, Engineering and Mathematics Approaches for Expanding 
Combinatorial Reconfiguration."

* Invited Speakers
- Marthe Bonamy (Université de Bordeaux, France)
- Jun Kawahara (Kyoto University, Japan)
* Call for Contributed Talks and Submission Guideline
Authors are invited to submit original work that is related to any 
aspect or application of Combinatorial Reconfiguration. Any work already 
or not yet published is welcome. Presentations of ongoing work and open 
problems, as well as challenges, are encouraged. Short survey talks are 
also welcome.
The submission must be formatted in one page that contains the title of 
the work, the list of all authors, an email address of the corresponding 
author, and a brief summary of the presentation. The manuscript must be 
prepared with the following template as a PDF file.

Even though there will be no strict formal refereeing process, some 
contributions might not be accepted at the discretion of the Program 
Committee. A collection of one-page abstracts will be distributed to the 
workshop participants only. Submission should be done via EasyChair.
