REGISTRATIONS ARE OPEN ISSAC 2026 International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation July 13 - 17, 2026 Carl von Ossietzky Universität of Oldenburg, Germany https://www.issac-conference.org/2026/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation is the premier conference for research in symbolic computation and computer algebra. ISSAC 2026 will be the 51st meeting in the series, which started in 1966 and has been held annually since 1981. The conference presents a range of invited talks, tutorials, short communications (posters), software demonstrations, and vendor exhibits with a centerpiece of contributed research papers. ISSAC 2026 will be held from July 13 to 17, 2026, at Oldenburg, Germany. Registration for the conference is now open. Until June 14, 2026 AoE, the registration will be available at a discounted rate. From June 15 to July 5, 2026 the Late registration prices will be used. All registrations must be completed online. More details about the registration and the registration link can be found at https://www.issac-conference.org/2026/registration.php. Topics ------ All areas of computer algebra and symbolic mathematical computation are of interest. These include, but are not limited to: Algorithmic aspects: * Exact and symbolic linear, polynomial and differential algebra * Symbolic-numeric, homotopy, perturbation and series methods * Computational algebraic geometry * Polynomial and semialgebraic optimization * Computational group theory and number theory * Quantifier elimination and logic * Computer arithmetic * Summation, recurrence equations, integration, solution of ODEs & PDEs * Symbolic methods in other areas of pure and applied mathematics * AI methods and symbolic computation * Complexity of algebraic algorithms and algebraic complexity Software aspects: * Design of symbolic computation packages and systems * Language design and type systems for symbolic computation * Data representation * Considerations for modern hardware * Algorithm implementation and performance tuning * Mathematical user interfaces * Use with systems such as digital libraries, courseware, simulation and optimization, automated theorem-proving, computer-aided design, and automatic differentiation Application aspects: * Applications that stretch the current limits of computer algebra algorithms or systems, use computer algebra in new areas or new ways, or apply it in situations with broad impact.
