Publications

bibliometric Information. My research contributions have been internationally recognized. I have published over 200 articles in high-quality peer reviewed journals (such as J. of ACM, TOCT, SIAM J. Computing, J. Comput. Syst. Sci., Algorithmica, Discrete Optimization, IEEE/ACM Trans. Comput. Biology Bioinform.) and conference proceedings (such as ICALP, ESA, IJCAI, FOCS, STOC, STACS, AAAI). I have written 2 books on Parameterized Complexity (with Rod Downey), edited Special Issues, and co-authored book chapters. My publications (total over my career so far) have received more than 14,000 citations, h = 57 (Google Scholar). Papers published in the last ten years only have already garnered more than 5700 citations, h=34.
