Abstract Format: Electronic submissions are solicited. Please consult the server https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=approx2023 

Note: You will be asked to login using an EasyChair account. Directions on how to register for such an account are available at the submission servers (you may also have an old account from a previous conference submission).  

The submission must be received by 18:00 (EDT) of May 4, 2023 for your submission to be considered.

Submission Format: Submissions, in PDF, should start with the title of the paper, followed by a 1-2 paragraph abstract summarizing the paper’s contributions. This should be followed by a technical exposition on single-spaced, single-column pages, letter-size paper, using page numbers, at least 1-inch margins all around, and at least 11-point font. The first 10 pages should contain a clear presentation of the main technical and conceptual ideas underlying the results, including the motivation behind the paper and a clear comparison with related work (not including the references). The submission should be accessible to a wide variety of researchers in theoretical computer science and discrete mathematics. There is no page limit, but any material beyond the first 10 pages will be read at the sole discretion of the program committee.

Submission PDFs should not indicate the authors’ names. PC members will still be able to access author names in the reviewing process if they feel they need to; the intent of this procedure is to make it easier for PC members and reviewers to avoid unconscious biases. Authors are free (and encouraged) to post submissions on web pages, arXiv, etc.

Work that has been previously published in another conference proceedings or journal, or which will be published before the end of the conference, will not be considered for acceptance. Simultaneous submission of the same (or an overlapping) paper to RANDOM/APPROX and to another conference with published proceedings is not allowed.

PROCEEDINGS Accepted papers will be published in the online proceedings of the conference in the Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs) series, based at Schloss Dagstuhl. This guarantees perennial, free and easy electronic access, while the authors retain the rights over their work.
