Goal of the Conference

QCRYPT is a conference for students and researchers who work on quantum
cryptography, broadly defined. We invite research contributions on the
possibilities and limitations of quantum methods for secure communication
and computation. (Research on classical post-quantum cryptography is
considered to be within scope if it makes innovative use of quantum
information concepts.) QCRYPT features both experimental and theoretical
talks.

Contributed Talks and Posters

QCrypt solicits submissions of extended abstracts describing recent
research results in quantum cryptography. These will be reviewed by the
program committee, which will select a small number of contributed talks,
and a larger number of poster presentations. The selection will be based on
the scientific merit of the submissions, keeping in mind the desire to
create an attractive and balanced program. A small number of submissions
may be upgraded to invited talks at the discretion of the PC chairs and of
the steering committee.

In line with the goal of showcasing the best results each year from all
subfields, the conference has no published proceedings. Yet, contributed
talks are highly competitive. QCrypt welcomes the submission of any
interesting and important result, while allowing researchers from a wide
range of disciplines to pursue publication in any venue appropriate to
their field.

*QCrypt 2025 will be an in-person conference, requiring authors of accepted
papers to present their work on-site. If none of the authors can attend in
person, the paper will be withdrawn from the program, with exceptions
granted only for unforeseen and exceptional circumstances.*

Submission Instructions

All submissions should be in PDF (Portable Document Format). An extended
abstract for a talk submission should be 2-3 pages, in A4 or letter size,
using reasonable margins and at least 11pt font. (The 3-page limit does not
include references.) An extended abstract for a talk should give a
non-technical, clear and insightful description of the results and main
ideas, their impact, and their importance to quantum cryptography.

For a “poster only” submission, a one-page non-technical description is
sufficient as an extended abstract.

The extended abstract may refer to technical details which are presented
elsewhere. In particular, authors may include citations to a full version
of the paper that is either published, available on arXiv.org or provided
as an attachment (links to full versions on personal webpages are not
accepted). This is strongly recommended for theory submissions to help the
peer-review process. The extended abstract should not be a compressed
version of the full-length paper.

Student Paper Prize

Since 2011, QCrypt features a prize for the best student submission. A
submission is eligible for the student prize if and only if the main
author(s) is/are a student(s) at the time of the submission, will present
the work at QCrypt, and further a significant portion of the work must have
been done by said student(s), including contributions to the key ideas.
More details can be found in the QCrypt Charter
<https://qcrypt.net/2025/charter/>.
