The Beyond IID in Information Theory workshop, the 13th in a series that started in 2013 in Cambridge, brings together specialists and students of classical and quantum Shannon theory, cryptography, mathematical physics, thermodynamics, etc., in the hope to foster collaboration in this exciting field. Participation is open to all. This year’s edition will take place at the Institute for Advanced Study, Technical University Munich, Germany, from 14 to 18 Julyy 2025.

The topics covered by the workshop include but are not limited to the following:

- Hypothesis testing and coding in composite and non-i.i.d. settings

- Error exponents and other trade-off relations

- Second, third and higher order order analysis

- Ultimate limits for finite block length coding

- Information spectrum method

- Shannon theory in quantum cryptography

- Quantum thermodynamics

- Resource theories

- Mathematical properties of information measures, entropy inequalities

- Matrix analysis in quantum information theory

- New information tasks

The application process asks for an extended abstract of up to three pages together with a technical manuscript without page limits. Both of these will help the programme committee to make a decision. We will make it our mission to select a programme that features the most interesting research of the year, covers all the topics relevant to the conference well, and includes a broad variety of speakers. The programme committee will generally break any tie towards work that has been published on the electronic archive in the year preceding the conference.

Extended Abstract: This should be at most three pages in length and contain a nontechnical and clear description of the results and main ideas. The page limit does not include references.

Technical Manuscript: This is an appendix to the extended abstract describing the technical details of the work. This should only be included (in the same file – only one file to be uploaded) if the work is not yet published on an electronic archive. Otherwise, a reference to the published paper is preferred.
