Title: | The Hirsch Function and its Properties | Authors: | EGGHE, Leo | Issue Date: | 2023 | Publisher: | PHCOG NET | Source: | Journal of Scientometric Research, 12 (2) , p. 229 -233 | Abstract: | The Hirsch function, denoted as h(f), of a given continuous function f is a new function depending on a parameter. It exists provided some assumptions are satisfied. If this parameter takes the value one, we obtain the well-known h-index. We prove several properties of the Hirsch function and characterize the shape of general functions that are Hirsch functions. We, moreover, present a formula that enables the calculation of f, given its Hirsch function h(f). | Notes: | Egghe, L (corresponding author), Hasselt Univ, B-3500 Hasselt, Belgium. leo.egghe@uhasselt.be |
