Publications

Below, I provide a list of all my publications, ordered by date and organized into different categories. For most of the publications in this list, a downloadable version is available in pdf format. In some cases this is a pre- or postprint version, which is provided here for easy access. It may differ in small details from the actually published version. If you intend to refer to my papers, please get them in their published form.

The bibliography of Ghent University also has a list of my main publications. If you intend to link to my work, please use the links on that page. For individual publications, these links are provided in the list below (http).

To preserve space and avoid cluttering of this list, I have abbreviated the name of Gert de Cooman (GdC) and myself (JDB).
