Talks I didn't give

It would be impossible to list all the talks where I appear as "an author" without being the one that speaks. These are too numerous and I cannot possibly keep track. In several cases, works are presented of which I am not even aware. I try, however, to keep track of the talks delivered by the people under my supervision (Ph. D.), etc., as this is my direct responsibility and in some cases, such talks are given on my behalf.
