The Group Theory Impact Factor






Authors
Francesco de Giovanni - Marco Trombetti

Description
The aim of the Group Theory Impact Factor is to provide a solid way to recognize which journals have a central role in group theory. The index is calculated on a time span of 10 years (e.g. the 2023 issue is based upon data coming from the time span 2012-2021), it essentially depends on how many citations per group-theory-paper the journal has (of course the weight of the citation depends on the year the paper is published) and also (to a small extend) on how many group-theory-papers the journal publish each year. A group-theory-paper is just a paper whose MSC Classification Codes concern group theory (e.g. 20Exx, 20Fyy, ...).

How to read the table
On the left side you have the score and on the right side there is the journal's title. The colors from top to bottom identify the quartiles, so for instance a journal which is light blue is in the first quartile
