Thirteenth Algorithmic Number Theory Symposium University of Wisconsin, Madison July 16 – 20, 2018 Thirteenth Algorithmic Number Theory Symposium (ANTS-XIII) July 16 – 20, 2018

The ANTS meetings, held biannually since 1994, are the premier international forum for new research in computational number theory. They are devoted to algorithmic aspects of number theory, including elementary number theory, algebraic number theory, analytic number theory, geometry of numbers, arithmetic algebraic geometry, finite fields, and cryptography.

The 13th ANTS meeting was held July 16-20, 2018 at the University of Wisconsin, Madison.

• ANTS 2020 will be June 30 - July 4 at the University of Auckland, New Zealand.
• The conference proceedings have now been published!
• We have conference Photos posted! Thank you to everyone who sent us photos. If you have photos you would like us to share, please send them to the organizers.

• Slides from each talk may be found by clicking on the individual paper titles under the Accepted papers tab. The page you navigate to will have the abstract of the paper, a pre-conference copy of the paper, and the talk slides.
• Congratulations to Travis Scholl for his poster Abelian Varieties with Few Isogenies and Cryptography which was voted best poster at the conference.
• Congratuations to our Selfridge Prize winners Michael Musty, Sam Schiavone, Jeroen Sijsling and John Voight for their paper A database of Belyĭ maps!

Invited speakers

About the program

As at previous ANTS conferences, the program will include invited addresses, contributed lectures, a poster session, a rump session, and a conference banquet. There will be a proceedings volume.

ANTS XIII aims to foster diversity, committing to a target of at least 30% female participation in all aspects of the conference.

Selfridge Prize

At each ANTS meeting, the Selfridge Prize is awarded to the best submitted paper as judged by the program committee; the prize carries a cash award funded by the Number Theory Foundation. The prize for ANTS XIII has been awarded to Michael Musty, Sam Schiavone, Jeroen Sijsling and John Voight for their paper A database of Belyĭ maps.
