AutoMathA 2020
Paris - The Eiffel Tower in spring - 2307

Preliminary website and information

The conference AutoMathA 2020 will survey a wide picture of research in automata theory and related mathematical fields. It will consist of 22 invited lectures which will describe significant progress over the past years, and will be a meeting point for both young and senior researchers to learn and to discuss about automata theory, its connections with mathematics and its applications.

For young researchers the conference will serve as an “Advanced Autumn School of Automata Theory”.

All lectures will have the same length of about 50 minutes. They will serve as surveys on significant research work, not necessarily focusing only on work of the speaker. There will be only informal proceedings (with slides or texts); so the results presented are usually already published (or accepted) elsewhere.

This event will be collocated with the 14th International Conference on Reachability Problems (RP'20), which will take place on Oct. 19–21.

AutoMathA 2020 is a follow-up to
