What are hit papers?

Hit papers significantly outperform the citation benchmark for their cohort. A paper qualifies if it has ≥500 total citations, achieves ≥1.5× the top-1% citation threshold for papers in the same subfield and year (this is the minimum needed to enter the top 1%, not the average within it), or reaches the top citation threshold in at least one of its specific research topics.

Countries citing papers authored by Hermann Weyl

Since Specialization

Citations

This map shows the geographic impact of Hermann Weyl's research. It shows the number of citations coming from papers published by authors working in each country. You can also color the map by specialization and compare the number of citations received by Hermann Weyl with the expected number of citations based on a country's size and research output (numbers larger than one mean the country cites Hermann Weyl more than expected).

This network shows the impact of papers produced by Hermann Weyl. Nodes represent research fields, and links connect fields that are likely to share authors. Colored nodes show fields that tend to cite the papers produced by Hermann Weyl. The network helps show where Hermann Weyl may publish in the future.

Co-authorship network of co-authors of Hermann Weyl

This figure shows the co-authorship network connecting the top 25 collaborators of Hermann Weyl. A scholar is included among the top collaborators of Hermann Weyl based on the total number of citations received by their joint publications. Widths of edges represent the number of papers authors have co-authored together. Node borders signify the number of papers an author published with Hermann Weyl. Hermann Weyl is excluded from the visualization to improve readability, since they are connected to all nodes in the network.

Rankless uses publication and citation data sourced from OpenAlex, an open and comprehensive bibliographic database. While OpenAlex provides broad and valuable coverage of the global research landscape, it—like all bibliographic datasets—has inherent limitations. These include incomplete records, variations in author disambiguation, differences in journal indexing, and delays in data updates. As a result, some metrics and network relationships displayed in Rankless may not fully capture the entirety of a scholar's output or impact.
