23rd International Symposium on Fundamentals of Computation Theory
September 12-15, 2021, Athens, Greece

About FCT
-----------------------
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 hosted by the National Technical University of Athens partially or completely online, depending on the status of the COVID-19 pandemic.
