Papers presenting original research on aspects of Algorithmic Number
Theory, in the broad sense, are sought.  For example, algorithmic
aspects of the following topics would be among those considered
appropriate:
 
Elementary Number Theory (e.g. Primality Testing, Factoring, Polynomials)
 
Algebraic Geometry (e.g. Elliptic Curves, Abelian Varieties)
 
Geometry of Numbers (e.g. Lattice Reduction)
 
Analytic Number Theory (e.g. zeta-functions, distribution of primes)
 
Algebraic Number Theory (e.g. Cyclotomic fields, Class numbers)
 
Computational Complexity (e.g. NP completness, Reductions)
 
Applications (e.g. Coding theory, Cryptography, Program-checking)
 
 
Abstract Submission: Authors are requested to send 10 copies
(double-sided printing is preferred) of an extended abstract to:
 
                    Leonard M. Adleman
                    Department of Computer Science
                    University of Southern California
                    Los Angeles, CA 90089-0781, USA
 
 
Submitted abstracts should contain each author's name, affiliation and
email address. Abstracts should not exceed 10 pages in length
(excluding bibliography).
 
Authors of accepted abstracts will be expected to present
their results at the symposium and must submit a camera-ready
version of their paper for inclusion in the symposium proceedings.
Springer-Verlag has agreed in principle to publish the
proceedings in its Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. A version
of the proceedings will be available at the symposium.
 
Researchers interested in a short presentation at the conference may
submit 10 copies of a one page abstract for consideration. Accepted
abstracts for short presentations will be included in the proceedings
at the option of the authors.
