Overview

Top Research Topics at ALEA-Latin American Journal of Probability and Mathematical Statistics?

The journal primarily focuses on research topics in Combinatorics, Applied mathematics, Statistical physics, Pure mathematics and Mathematical analysis. The research on Combinatorics featured in ALEA-Latin American Journal of Probability and Mathematical Statistics combines topics in other fields like Discrete mathematics, Distribution (mathematics), Bounded function and Random walk. It explores topics in Applied mathematics which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Poisson distribution and Markov chain.

The research on Statistical physics tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Percolation and Limit (mathematics). The research on Pure mathematics tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Martingale (probability theory) and Random variable. Mathematical analysis research featured in the journal incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Central limit theorem and Brownian motion.

Research areas of the most cited articles at ALEA-Latin American Journal of Probability and Mathematical Statistics:

The journal publications focus largely on the fields of Applied mathematics, Random walk, Pure mathematics, Statistical physics and Distribution (mathematics). Issues in Applied mathematics were discussed in the journal papers, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Poisson distribution, Central limit theorem, Markov process and Mathematical analysis. While the primary focus in the published articles is Distribution (mathematics), they also dissect topics surrounding Sequence and Malliavin calculus, Random variable and Gaussian as a whole.

What topics the last edition of the journal is best known for?

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Mathematical analysis
  • Statistics

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

ALEA-Latin American Journal of Probability and Mathematical Statistics mostly deals with topics like Pure mathematics, Combinatorics, Applied mathematics, Mathematical analysis and Random walk. The journal focuses on Pure mathematics but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Law of large numbers, Random variable and Metric (mathematics). It holds forums on Combinatorics that merges themes from other disciplines such as Block (telecommunications) and Rényi entropy.

While work presented in the journal provided substantial information on Applied mathematics, it also covered topics in Real line and Estimator, Asymptotic distribution. Some problems in Mathematical analysis that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under Central limit theorem and Scaling. The study of Random walk encompasses disciplines such as Discrete mathematics, as well as fields such as Self and Distribution function, all of which overlap with one another.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Emergence of homogamy in a two-loci stochastic population model (5 citations)
  • On 3-dimensional Berry’s model (4 citations)
  • Convoluted Fractional Poisson Process (3 citations)

Papers citation over time

A key indicator for each journal 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 in ALEA-Latin American Journal of Probability and Mathematical Statistics (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Giovanni Peccati (7 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Nicolas Lanchier (6 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Florence Merlevède (4 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition,
  • Johan Tykesson (4 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Erik I. Broman (4 papers) absent at the last edition.

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

Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered

The top affiliations publishing in ALEA-Latin American Journal of Probability and Mathematical Statistics (based on the number of publications) are:

  • University of Luxembourg (10 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Institut Élie Cartan de Lorraine (9 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Institut de Mathématiques de Toulouse (8 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • École Polytechnique (6 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • University of Paris (6 papers) absent at the last edition.

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

Publication chance based on affiliation

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

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, 98.33% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 100.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 0.00% of all publications and 0.00% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal 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 journal 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 in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, 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.
