  • Mathematical Literature
    Mathematical Literature A. J. LOHWATER THE GROWTH OF THE mathematical literature is one of the principal topics of this article, since the question of growth affects directly some of the matters to be discussed; hence it is not inappropriate to make some preliminary remarks on the topic. It is always an unenviable task to make a quantitative prediction of future developments, and the present undertaking carries more than its share of hazards because of what the author believes to be miscon- ceptions and miscalculations concerning the growth of the mathemati- cal literature. To understand how the present conclusions concerning the growth are drawn, the function and the operations of Mathemuti- cal Reviews (MR)will be described, and data will be given to estimate quantitatively the growth of the literature. The operations and func- tions of other reviewing and abstracting services will be described, with some emphasis on the Soviet mathematical literature. Other refer- ence material of interest to the professional mathematician and the status of the so-called “unpublished literature” will also be discussed. Mathematical Reviews.

The Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics publishes original papers of high scientific value in all areas of computational and applied mathematics. The main interest of the Journal is in papers that describe and analyze new computational techniques for solving scientific or engineering problems. Also the improved analysis, including the effectiveness and applicability, of existing methods and algorithms is of importance. The computational efficiency (e.g. the convergence, stability, accuracy, ...) should be proved and illustrated by nontrivial numerical examples. Papers describing only variants of existing methods, without adding significant new computational properties are not of interest. The audience consists of: applied mathematicians, numerical analysts, computational scientists and engineers. Benefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more. Please click here for more information on our author services. Please see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission. This journal has an Open Archive.

  • What Does It Take to Become a Good Mathematician?
    10-160 Research Group: Econometrics and Statistics May, 2010 What Does It Take to Become a Good Mathematician? PIERRE DUBOIS, JEAN-CHARLES ROCHET AND JEAN-MARC SCHLENKER What Does It Take to Become a Good Mathematician? By Pierre Dubois,∗ Jean-Charles Rochet†and Jean-Marc Schlenker‡ Using an exhaustive database on academic publications in mathematics, we study the patterns of productivity by world mathematicians over the period 1984-2006. We uncover some surprising facts, such as the ab- sence of age related decline in productivity and the relative symmetry of international movements, rejecting the presumption of a massive ”brain drain” towards the U.S. Looking at the U.S. academic market in math- ematics, we analyze the determinants of success by top departments. In conformity with recent studies in other fields, we find that selection effects are much stronger than local interaction effects: the best departments are most successful in hiring the most promising mathematicians, but not necessarily at stimulating positive externalities among them. Finally we analyze the impact of career choices by mathematicians: mobility almost always pays, but early specialization does not.

  • Citation Analysis of Featured Reviews of the American Mathematical Society
    Citations versus expert opinions: Citation analysis of Featured Reviews of the American Mathematical Society by Lawrence Smolinsky1,4, Daniel S. Sage1, Aaron J. Lercher2, and Aaron Cao3 1Department of Mathematics, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA 70803 (USA) 2LSU Library, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA 70803 (USA) 3Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA 15213 (USA) 4Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Peer review and citation metrics are two means of gauging the value of scientific research, but the lack of publicly available peer review data makes the comparison of these methods difficult. Mathematics can serve as a useful laboratory for considering these questions because as an exact science, there is a narrow range of reasons for citations. In mathematics, virtually all published articles are post-publication reviewed by mathematicians in Mathematical Reviews (MathSciNet) and so the data set was essentially the Web of Science mathematics publications from 1993 to 2004. For a decade, especially important articles were singled out in Mathematical Reviews for featured reviews. In this study, we analyze the bibliometrics of elite articles selected by peer review and by citation count. We conclude that the two notions of significance described by being a featured review article and being highly cited are distinct. This indicates that peer review and citation counts give largely independent determinations of highly distinguished articles. We also consider whether hiring patterns of subfields and mathematicians’ interest in subfields reflect subfields of featured review or highly cited articles. We re-examine data from two earlier studies in light of our methods for implications on the peer review/citation count relationship to a diversity of disciplines.
