Call for Contributions

41st European Workshop on Computational Geometry
Organized as an event of the Computational Geometry Society, https://computational-geometry.org/
April 9-11, 2025, Liblice, Czech Republic

EuroCG 2025 will be held on April 9-11, 2025 in Liblice, Czech Republic. EuroCG is an annual workshop that combines a strong scientific tradition with a friendly and informal atmosphere. The workshop is a forum where established researchers and students can meet, discuss their work, present their results, and establish scientific collaborations.

Topics of interest

Topics of interest cover all aspects of computational geometry, including but not limited to the following:

● discrete and combinatorial geometry and topology,
● design and analysis of geometric algorithms and data structures,
● implementation and experimental evaluation of geometric algorithms,
● numerical and algebraic issues arising from implementations,
● analysis of geometric configurations,
● geometric modeling, visualization and simulation,
● combinatorial optimization,
● graph drawing,
● structural molecular biology,
● geometric puzzle analysis,
● applications of computational geometry,
● geographic information systems,
● robotics and virtual worlds, and
● computer-aided design and manufacturing.

Submission

We invite authors to submit extended abstracts of their original research. Submissions must be formatted in LaTeX using a supplied class file, and not be longer than 175 lines of text. Submissions will be handled through EasyChair.

Authors must use the LaTeX class files euroCG25 and eurocg25-submission, which are based on the LIPIcs class file. These class files should automatically count all lines containing text, excluding title and references, and excluding figures. Authors are expected to make reasonable effort to make sure all lines that contain text are counted: the class file should be considered an aid, and the responsibility of correctly counting lines remains with the authors. A zip file containing an example of how to use the class file can be found here.

Your submission should provide a clear statement of your results including proofs. The main (175 line) body of your submission should be self-contained and contain a clear and succinct description of your results. Content that does not fit in the main body due to space restrictions must be placed into a clearly marked appendix, which will only be read at the discretion of the program committee.

Acceptance Policy

EuroCG is a non-competitive forum. We will accept all submissions which are original, correct, well-presented, non-trivial, and in scope. The program committee judges submissions on these five criteria, each of which can lead to rejection. If a submission satisfies all criteria, then it will be accepted: there is no competition against other submissions. For this reason authors are not requested to hide their names and affiliations at the time of their submission (the review process will not be double blind).

● Originality: If a submission does not contain original research by the authors, or if there is good reason to believe this is the case, this is a reason for rejection. We do not accept submissions which have already been accepted for publication in a conference and/or journal at the date of the EuroCG submission deadline. However, we do explicitly allow submissions that are under review at another conference or journal at the date of the EuroCG submission deadline.
● Correctness: If the main / a major result of a submission is not correct, this is a reason for rejection. If an attentive reviewer cannot establish correctness of the results from the content of the submission, this is a reason for rejection. However, an acceptance at EuroCG is no correctness guarantee.
● Presentation: If a submission is written in a way that makes it unreadable, or it does not follow the submission guidelines as listed in the call for contributions, this is a reason for rejection.
● Technical Depth: If a submission is trivial, this is a reason for rejection. However, there is no minimum level of technical depth required.
● Scope: If a submission is out of scope, this is a reason for rejection. However, we wish to be inclusive in our interpretation of scope, which includes but is not limited to the list of topics in the call for contributions.

Proceedings

EuroCG does not have formally reviewed proceedings. A booklet of abstracts, without ISBN, will be accessible online on the website for the benefit of the community and must be regarded as a collection of preprints rather than a formally reviewed selection of papers. Results presented at EuroCG are expected to appear in other conferences with formal proceedings and/or in journals.

Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit extended versions to a special issue of the Computing in Geometry and Topology (CGT) journal.

There will also be a voting for the Best Student Presentation.

Attendance and presentation of papers at the conference

EuroCG is dedicated to providing an environment that is free from harassment, bullying, discrimination, and retaliation for all participants. According to the decision taken at EuroCG 2024, from 2025 onwards EuroCG will be organized as an event of the CG Society. Only members of the Society can attend EuroCG. Society membership is free. All members of the Society are bound by its Code of Conduct. A person whose membership has been suspended, for example by the Code of Conduct Committee, cannot attend EuroCG in person.

EuroCG is fundamentally an in-person event and all presentations are expected to be given in person. Hence at least one author of an accepted contribution must become a member of the society and attend EuroCG. If no author of an accepted contribution is attending EuroCG, then the contribution may be removed from the program, the booklet of abstracts, and the conference website.
