Comparative study of h-index sequences

Abstract

This paper studies four different h-index sequences (different in publication periods and/or citation periods). Lotkaian models for these h-index sequences are derived by mutual comparison of one sequence with another one. This is done using the earlier published theory of transformations of Lotkaian systems. Also some inequalities between different h-index sequences are proved. We also give graphs of these h-sequences for this author on which a discussion is presented. The same is done for the g-index and the R-index.
