2. P.Marković, Problem konačne baze identiteta u Univerzalnoj algebri, prvi deo. University of Novi Sad, 2015 (Serbian, cyrillic).

This monograph is an overview of the finite basis results which do not use commutator theory. It includes an introduction in basic Universal algebra and Model theory, so it is self-contained to a large extent.

1. P.Đapić, R.Sz.-Madarasz, P.Marković, Zbirka zadataka iz Univerzalne algebre, University of Novi Sad, 2014 (Serbian).

This is a problem book which accompanies an earlier Universal algebra textbook by the second author. It contains over 600 solved exercises ranging in difficulty from trivial to research-level. Primarily intended for students of master and PhD studies, it also contains some material which may be useful for researchers.

Conference Proceedings Papers

An explanation for mathematicians, who might find this category strange, like I did at first: Due to the custom in Computer Science to publish extended abstracts in conferences, I include such publications in this category. These extended abstracts are basically all results of a paper and all proofs which can fit in some small number of pages, usually a dozen or so. However, the referees also have access to the remaining proofs which are in the appendix (the appendix goes unpublished). Subsequently, it is customary to publish the same result in a journal version, which includes all proofs and also often is a better or updated version of the part which was already published. This is not considered self-plagiarism. Indeed, some conferences are very highly regarded and competitive to publish in, actually there are a number of conferences which a typical computer scientist will prefer to have published in than in any journal.

My papers which were published with all proofs written in the usual way are in the Journal Papers category, even if they were published in a journal which had a special issue devoted to the proceedings of a conference.

Lectures


The following two recent lectures explain Vladimir Božin's approach to Frankl's Conjecture, a famous problem in Combinatorics. The Siena lecture gives a lot more information, but the Budapest lecture is easier to follow since some of the hard stuff is omitted. The Siena lecture is sufficient for an interested reader to reconstruct the whole proof of Božin's Equivalence Theorem, in my opinion.
