Topics
The Theory of Quantum Computation, Communication and Cryptography (TQC) is a leading annual international conference for students and researchers working in the theoretical aspects of quantum information science. The scientific objective of TQC is to bring together the theoretical quantum information science community to present and discuss the latest advances in the field.
Areas of interest for TQC include, but are not restricted to:
- quantum algorithms
- models of quantum computation
- quantum complexity theory
- simulation of quantum systems
- quantum cryptography
- quantum communication
- quantum information theory
- quantum estimation and measurement
- quantum error correction and fault-tolerant quantum computing
- quantum formal methods
- intersection of quantum information and condensed-matter theory
- intersection of quantum information and machine learning
Submission Guidelines
As the goal of TQC is to bring together researchers on all aspects of quantum information, submissions are solicited for two tracks: Conference (talk and proceedings) and Workshop (talk only). It is possible to present a poster if a submission is not accepted for a talk, in either track, and poster-only submissions are also possible.
In recent years the overall acceptance rate for all papers submitted to TQC has been approximately 25%. The PC will target a minimum of 10 articles to be published in the proceedings and therefore the acceptance rates could differ between the two tracks. One of the Conference track submissions will be selected for an Outstanding Paper Prize.
Conference (talk + proceedings):
Submissions to this track must be original manuscripts that have not previously appeared in published form and are not simultaneously submitted to another publishing venue. Accepted papers will be presented orally at the conference and will be published in the conference proceedings.
Submission format: The manuscript should be submitted as a single PDF file. The maximum manuscript length is 10 pages, excluding bibliography and appendices. The text must be in a single column format, use at least 11-point fonts, and have reasonable margins. The submission should begin with a title, a list of authors, and a short abstract. If the work is currently under submission to, has been accepted at, or has been presented at any other conference(s) or workshop, this should be indicated on the first page of the submission. The introduction should summarize the contributions of the paper, at a level appropriate for a non-specialist reader.
Publication: Accepted manuscripts for the conference track will be published in late 2023 in the TQC 2023 proceedings, as part of the well-known open-access LIPIcs–Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics series.
Final version: If your manuscript is accepted for publication in the proceedings, you will receive instructions on how to prepare the final revised version together with the notification, on the 3rd of April 2023. The deadline for submitting the final version is the 2nd of May 2023.
Workshop (talk only):
We solicit submissions for talk-only papers; accepted submissions will be presented orally at the conference but will not appear in the proceedings. This track allows authors to publish their work elsewhere and accepts already published material. Previously published submissions must still be current to be competitive for acceptance.
Submission format: Submissions should include both an extended abstract and a technical version. The two documents should be merged and submitted as a single PDF file.
- The extended abstract (at most 3 pages, not including references) should contain a non-technical, clear and insightful description of the main ideas, results, and their impact. It should have at least 11-point fonts and reasonable margins. If the work is currently under submission to, has been accepted at, or has been presented at any other conference(s) or workshop, this should be indicated on the first page of the submission.
- The technical version (no page limit) will be considered only at the discretion of the program committee.
Poster submissions:
Talk submissions that are not retained will automatically be considered for the poster session (in both the Conference and Workshop tracks). In addition, you can submit your work for a poster-only presentation.
Poster-only submissions must either consist of a short summary (2 pages) of the work, or follow the guidelines from either of the tracks above.
Important note: talk submission to multiple conferences
As a research community, our goal is that contributed talks at quantum information conferences reflect the breadth of our field. We therefore discourage parallel submission of works that were previously accepted or presented as talks at a conference with a similar scope, such as QIP.
On the first page of your submission, indicate if your work is currently under submission to, has been accepted at, or has been presented at any other conference or workshop, as a talk. If that is the case, quickly discuss the reason for the multiple submissions as well as significant changes relative to these submissions. The assessment of this information is at the Programme Committee’s discretion.
