===============================================================================
The International Conference on Logic for Programming, Artificial Intelligence 
and Reasoning (LPAR) is an academic conference aimed at discussing cutting-edge 
results in the fields of automated reasoning, computational logic, programming 
languages and their applications. Papers from previous proceedings are listed 
in DBLP. LPAR's slogan is "To boldly go where no reasonable conference has gone
before". LPAR brings first class research and researchers to interesting 
places, and exposes the conference attendees to interesting cultures. The 26th
International Conference on Logic for Programming Artificial Intelligence and
Reasoning (LPAR-26) will be held on Spetses, Greece, 25-30 October 2026. The
proceedings of LPAR-26 will be published by EasyChair, in the EPiC Series in
Computing.

Call for Papers

Submission Guidelines
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal 
or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:
* Regular papers describing solid new research results. They can be up to 15 
pages long in EasyChair style, including figures but excluding references and 
appendices (that reviewers are not required to read). Where applicable, regular 
papers are supported by experimental validation.
* Experimental and tool papers describing implementations of systems, reporting
experiments with implemented systems, or comparing implemented systems. They 
can be up to 8 pages long in in EasyChair style, including figures but
excluding references and appendices (that reviewers are not required to read).
Experimental and tool papers should be supported by a link to the artifact/
experimental evaluation available to the reviewers. 

The EasyChair style files are avbailable from:
https://easychair.org/publications/for_authors
Both types of papers must be electronically submitted in PDF via EasyChair:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lpar2026
The review process is single blind. Authors of accepted papers are required to
ensure that at least one of them will be present at the conference.

Topics
New results in the fields of computational logic and applications are welcome. 
Also welcome are more exploratory presentations, which may examine open 
questions and raise fundamental concerns about existing theories and practices. 
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Abduction, Answer set 
programming, Automated reasoning, Constraint programming, Computational proof 
theory, Decision procedures, Description logics, Formalizing mathematics, 
Foundations of security, Hardware verification, Implementations of logic, 
Interpolation, Interactive theorem proving, Knowledge representation and 
reasoning, Logic and computational complexity, Logic and databases, Logic and 
games, Logic and language models, Logic and machine learning, Logic and the 
web, Logic and types, Logic in artificial intelligence, Logic programming, 
Logical foundations of programming, Logics of knowledge and belief, Modal and 
temporal logics, Model checking, Non-monotonic reasoning, Ontologies and large 
knowledge bases, Probabilistic and fuzzy reasoning, Program analysis, 
Rewriting, Satisfiability checking, Satisfiability modulo theories, Software 
verification, Unification theory.
