Collected Works of Harald Bohr
The Collected Works contain almost all of Bohr's
scientific papers, while his textbooks and some elementary and
pedagogical publications in Danish have been left out. Most of
the latter were reprinted in Matematiske arbejder med
pædagogisk sigte [Mathematical works with a pedagogical aim]
at the centenary of his birth.
Archival material from the publication of the Collected Works
is conserved in box
11-15, Harald Bohr Papers, the Archive, Institute
for Mathematical Science, University of Copenhagen.
It consists of the original manuscript, correspondence
about financial and editorial matters, etc.

In the Collected Works Bohr's scientific works is divided
into subjects and the papers belonging to each subject are then
arranged chronological. The subjects are:
| A |
Dirichlet series |
| B |
The Riemann zeta function |
| C |
Almost periodic functions |
| D |
Linear congruences and Diophantine
approximations |
| E |
Function theory |
| F |
Addition of convex curves |
| G |
Other |
| H |
Encyclopædia article |
| S |
Translations into English |
The "subject" S consists of translations into English of the most
important papers in Danish, and a short English summary of the rest
