Abstract
A scientific citation is usually represented as a relation between two publications without any precise meaning and inner structure. In fact, the structure of a citation, which is usually not represented explicitly, can be quite complicated. In our previous papers, we have proposed so-called expanded citations which allow representing the structure of a citation in a machine-readable way. In this short paper, we present and discuss selected structures of citations. In particular, we consider their meaning and possible application.

Notes
- 1.
Our considerations apply to any scientific publication. Throughout this paper, the publications are also referred to as papers, articles or books. We do not distinguish between them.
- 2.
For simplicity, we do not use URIs in our examples. We also do not use object properties from any particular ontology.
