Mathematica Slovaca

Top Research Topics at Mathematica Slovaca?

The topics of Pure mathematics, Discrete mathematics, Combinatorics, Mathematical analysis and Algebra are the focal point of discussions in the journal. The in-depth study on Pure mathematics also explores topics in the intersecting field of Type (model theory). Many of the studies tackled connect Discrete mathematics with a similar field of study like Algebra over a field.

Mathematica Slovaca explores issues in Mathematical analysis which can be linked to other research areas like Oscillation and Nonlinear system.

Research areas of the most cited articles at Mathematica Slovaca:

The published papers mostly deal with topics like Discrete mathematics, Pure mathematics, Combinatorics, Algebra over a field and Algebra. The most cited papers are mostly focused on Discrete mathematics, specifically Metric space. In addition to Pure mathematics research, the journal publications aim to explore topics under Space (mathematics) and Mathematical analysis.

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

• Mathematical analysis
• Algebra
• Pure mathematics

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

Mathematica Slovaca generally zeroes in on subjects such as Pure mathematics, Applied mathematics, Combinatorics, Mathematical analysis and Inequality. The Pure mathematics research presented in it explores the relationship between Convex function and the closely related topic of Exponential function. The work on Applied mathematics tackled in it brings together disciplines like Maximum likelihood and Lindley distribution.

The presented Combinatorics research focuses mostly on Function (mathematics) and, on occasion, topics in Real number. While the primary focus in it is Mathematical analysis, it also dissects topics surrounding Nonlinear system and System of difference equations as a whole. Mathematica Slovaca connects the study in Order (group theory) with the closely related area of Oscillation.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

• Radius of starlikeness of certain analytic functions (5 citations)
• Padovan numbers that are concatenations of two distinct repdigits (4 citations)
• Tribonacci numbers with two blocks of repdigits (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.

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, 11.58% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 20.24% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 4.76% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 11.90% of all publications and 63.10% 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.
