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

  • Mathematical analysis
  • Pure mathematics
  • Algebra

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

Michigan Mathematical Journal is mainly concerned with subjects like Pure mathematics, Combinatorics, Link (knot theory), Conjecture and Genus (mathematics). Issues in Pure mathematics were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Generalization, Gravitational singularity and Knot (mathematics). The featured Combinatorics research zeroes in on concepts in Integer but also tackles themes under Maximum size.

The journal facilitates discussions on Link (knot theory) that incorporate concepts from other fields like Isotopy, Invariant (mathematics) and Homology (mathematics). The featured Conjecture studies mainly concentrate on Locus (mathematics) but also cover areas of interest in Parameter space. The research on Genus (mathematics) tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Quadratic equation, Mapping class group, ELSV formula and Group (mathematics).

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Unexpected Hypersurfaces and Where to Find Them (13 citations)
  • Real structures on horospherical varieties (8 citations)
  • Components of Brill–Noether Loci for Curves with Fixed Gonality (8 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 Michigan Mathematical Journal (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Ch. Pommerenke (24 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Carl Pearcy (20 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Igor E. Shparlinski (9 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Allen L. Shields (7 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Ciprian Foias (7 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 Michigan Mathematical Journal (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Max Planck Society (14 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition,
  • University of Michigan (10 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • University of Warsaw (5 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign (5 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Nagoya University (4 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, 91.43% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 33.33% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 16.67% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 16.67% of all publications and 33.33% 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.
