## Publications

An incomplete list. Some closely related papers by other authors are also included. In the following "SLNM" stands for Springer Lecture Notes in Mathematics, while the titles of the four journals most frequently publishing research on categories are abbreviated as follows: JPAA = Journal of Pure and Applied Algebra, TAC = Theory and Applications of Categories, ACS = Applied Categorical Structures, CTGDC = Cahiers de Topologie et Géométrie Différentielle Catégoriques (Volume XXV (1984) and later), CTGD = Cahiers de Topologie et Géométrie Différentielle (Volume XXIV (1983) and earlier). For a more complete list, see the list at Street's website, from which this list was derived. Some closely related or specialized items are listed not by date of publication, but by their topic.
