The 2nd edition of Research.com ranking of the best universities in the field
of Mathematics relies os data combined from
multiple data sources including OpenAlex and CrossRef. The bibliometric data for
evaluating the citation-based metrics were acquired on 21-12-2022.
Position in the ranking is based on a sum of D-indexes (Discipline H-index) of all ranking
researcher’s affiliated with a given institution. D-index
includes exclusively papers and citation
values for an examined discipline.

The scope of our Mathematics research
Research.com’s best universities ranking is a reliable lineup of
leading researchers from the discipline of Mathematics ,
established by means of a detailed analysis
of 166,880 scientists identified from
a variety of bibliometric data sources. For the field of
Mathematics, over 6262 scholars were
examined.
What is D-index inclusion threshold for Mathematics
The D-index threshold for including a researcher to be
examined is established at 30 if
the majority of of their publications are in the area of Mathematics. The
approval requirements for scholars to be
considered into the ranking of top scientists are based on the D-index,
ratio of the publications made within the given
discipline in addition to the awards and achievements of the
researchers. The D-index threshold for including top
scientists is set as an increment of 10 depending on the total number of
researchers estimated for each
area od study whilst ensuring that the top 1% of
best scientists are incorporated into the ranking.
We estimate a proximity of 30% or less between a
scientist’s general H-index and their D-index.
Other verification practices
Since our main aim is to ensure that only
actual scholars are listed in
our ranking we believe that metrics are never
supposed to be a complete means to evaluate the
output of scholars. Because of that
we manually inspect every profile and cross-correlate it against publications in a
varied range of credible sources. While it’s not a
element defining a scholar’s position in
our ranking, the quantity of papers published in
well-known journals and conference proceedings should constitute a
credible secondary implication of their contribution to research in a
specific field of study. Position in the ranking is
based on every scientist’s D-index
with the help of metrics compiled from OpenAlex and
CrossRef, which are the most prominent and well-known bibliometric
databases of this kind open to the scientific community. A
thorough overview of our research policy
can be found on our
methodology page.
Our goal
Our mission is to inspire scholars,
businessmen and decision-makers
worldwide to examine where top experts are heading
and to offer a way for the entire research community to
find out who the leading experts in specific
areas of study, in different countries, or even within research
institutions are.
