Lewis John McGibbney commented on TIKA-3113:
--------------------------------------------
After a wee bit of research I understand it to be a file created by TeX and
LaTeX, which are typesetting standards often used to generate academic papers
and other technical documentation; contains information about a document such
as footnotes, bibliography entries, and cross-references.
_More Information_
AUX files are written when a .TEX file is typeset (formatted to an output
document) by LaTeX. Since the generation of LaTeX documentation can take
multiple passes before the document is complete (because of file and citation
cross-referencing), the AUX file is used to store information between runs of
the LaTeX compilation process.
Appears to be a temporary file...
I haven't been able to find a Java parser for this family of data formats but I
did find https://github.com/nzhagen/bibulous
