Over the years, Allan has inspired some academic work.

The most widely distributed of these works is probably Bjørn Schille's master's thesis in musicology, "Allan Holdsworth : reshaping harmony". In Schille's own words:

"This thesis examines improvisation and musical structures the way Holdsworth himself understands them. Three different songs are subjected to analysis in order to identify how his personal approach to for example chords, scales and sound characterizes the music. Focus is also given to guitar technical aspects and their relationship to the musical expression of Allan Holdsworth."
