Overview

The Mathematics Conference Ranking presented on this page has been meticulously compiled by Research.com, a prominent and trusted source in the scientific community known for delivering reliable data on academic contributions across all major disciplines since 2014. This ranking exclusively lists scientific conferences from the field of Mathematics, providing valuable insights into events that have significantly shaped recent developments in the discipline.

The ranking positions are determined through a unique bibliometric score developed by the expert team at Research.com. This score is calculated using two primary indicators: the estimated h-index and the number of leading scientists who have contributed to each conference during the last three years. The resulting Impact Score offers an objective measure of a conference’s influence and prestige within the mathematics community. Impact Score values presented herein were gathered on 2024-11-27, ensuring the data is both recent and relevant.

To guarantee the highest level of accuracy and credibility, the ranking process involved a comprehensive evaluation of more than 913 conferences. These conferences were carefully selected following a thorough review and rigorous analysis of over 487 scientific documents published in the last three years by 3,535 leading and well-respected scientists specializing in Mathematics. This approach underscores the depth of research and the complexity of analysis incorporated by the team of experts behind the ranking.

Readers interested in a more detailed explanation of the ranking methodology, including the calculation of bibliometric scores and selection criteria, are encouraged to visit our Methodology Page.

Papers citation over time

A key indicator for each conference is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.

The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.

The top authors publishing at Symposium on Computational Geometry (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Micha Sharir (107 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition, 1 more than at the previous edition,
  • Pankaj K. Agarwal (56 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Herbert Edelsbrunner (46 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition,
  • Timothy M. Chan (45 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Sariel Har-Peled (44 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition.

The overall trend for top authors publishing at this conference is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the conference for top authors.

Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered

The top affiliations publishing at Symposium on Computational Geometry (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Tel Aviv University (127 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition, 1 more than at the previous edition,
  • University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign (97 papers) published 7 papers at the last edition, 3 more than at the previous edition,
  • Duke University (91 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • French Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation (87 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition, 3 more than at the previous edition,
  • Utrecht University (80 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition.

The overall trend for top affiliations publishing at this conference is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the conference for top affiliations.

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions at the conference edition to all articles published within that conference. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the conference.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2021 edition, 1.45% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 30.88% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 20.59% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 14.71% of all publications and 33.82% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of conferences they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same conference from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the conference in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing at a conference. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a conference, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
