The 2nd edition of Research.com ranking of the best scholars in the
arena of Mathematics is based on data
combined from a wide range of data sources including OpenAlex and
CrossRef. The bibliometric data for devising the citation-based metrics were
collected on 21-12-2022. Position in the ranking is based on a
researcher’s D-index (Discipline H-index), which
only includes publications and citation
values for an examined discipline.

The focus of our Mathematics research
Research.com’s best scholars ranking is a trustworthy
account of leading scholars from the discipline of
Mathematics, based on a detailed
study of 166,880 researchers identified
from various bibliometric data sources. For the discipline of
Mathematics, more than 6262 researchers were
examined.
What is D-index inclusion threshold for Mathematics
The D-index threshold for including a scientist to be
considered is placed at 30 if
most of their publications are in the area of Mathematics. The
acceptance requirements for scholars to be
considered into the ranking of top scientists are based on the D-index, proportion
of the contributions made within the specific discipline
as well as the awards and achievements of the researchers. The
D-index threshold for listing top scholars is
set as an increment of 10 depending on the total number of scientists
estimated for each scientific field whilst
guaranteeing that the top 1% of best researchers are
added into the ranking. We estimate a proximity of
30% or less between a scholar’s general H-index and their D-index.
Other verification rules
Because our leading aim is to make sure that only
credible scientists are included in
the ranking we realize that raw data are never
supposed to be a complete measure to quantify the
output of scientists. For that reason
we manually inspect each profile and cross-correlate it against publications in a
broad range of credible sources. Although it’s not a
factor contributing to a scholar’s position in
the ranking, the number of documents published in
well-known journals and conference proceedings should constitute a
valuable secondary indication of their contribution to research in a
specific area of science. Position in the ranking is
established using every researcher’s D-index
with the help of information collected from OpenAlex and
CrossRef, which are the most prominent and well-established bibliometric
databases of this type accessible to the scientific community. A
thorough overview of our research policy
can be found on our
methodology page.
Our goal
Our aim is to inspire scholars,
businessmen and politicians
around the world to explore where prominent experts are heading
and to give a way for the whole research community to
find out who the leading experts in specific
fields of research, in various countries, or even within research
institutions are.
