In contrast to the articles listed above the main focus of the following
articles is not to derive and prove original new results, but to
summarize, explain and present existing results of myself and others or
to sketch work in progress.
The proceeding contributions for Grenoble and Leeds
contain new and original results and have therefore the
character of a research article; as a consequence they are listed above.
