This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 13331 "Exponential Algorithms: Algorithms and Complexity Beyond Polynomial Time". Problems are often solved in practice by algorithms with worst-case exponential time complexity. It is of interest to find the fastest algorithms for a given problem, be it polynomial, exponential, or something in between. The focus of the seminar is on finer-grained notions of complexity than NP-completeness and on understanding the exact

The report notes the progress on the open problems posed at the past workshops on the same topic. It also reports a collection of results that cite the presentations at the previous seminar. The docoument presents the collection of the abstracts of the results presented at the seminar. It also presents a compendium of open problems.
