Title: | The exact place of Zipfs and Paretos law amongst the classical informetric laws | Authors: | EGGHE, Leo | Issue Date: | 1991 | Publisher: | ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV | Source: | SCIENTOMETRICS, 20(1). p. 93-106 | Abstract: | In this paper, the special place of Zipf's law and Pareto's law amongst other classical informetric laws (such as Bradford's graphical and verbal law, Weber-Fechner's or Brookes', Leimkuhler's and Mandelbrot's) is revealed and explained. Equivalencies amongst some of these laws are proved. We also determine the conditions under which Bradford's graphical law is a special case of Bradford's verbal law. | Notes: | LIMBURGS UNIV CENTRUM,B-3590 DIEPENBEEK,BELGIUM.EGGHE, L, UNIV INSTELLING ANTWERP,UNIVERSITEITSPLEIN 1,B-2610 WILRIJK,BELGIUM. | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/3930 | DOI: | 10.1007/BF02018147 | ISI #: | A1991EY26100010 | Type: | Journal Contribution |
