Allometric Scaling in Scientific Fields
Hongguang Dong, Menghui Li, Ru Liu +2
Allometric scaling can reflect underlying mechanisms, dynamics and structures in complex systems; examples include typical scaling laws in biology, ecology and urban development. I…
Do Mathematicians, Economists and Biomedical Scientists Trace Large Topics More Strongly Than Physicists?
Menghui Li, Liying Yang, Huina ZHang +3
In this work, we extend our previous work on largeness tracing among physicists to other fields, namely mathematics, economics and biomedical science. Overall, the results confirm…
Interrelations among scientific fields and their relative influence revealed by input-output analysis
Zhesi Shen, Liying Yang, Jiansuo Pei +7
In this paper, we try to answer two questions about any given scientific discipline: First, how important is each subfield and second, how does a specific subfield influence other…

Menghui Li, Shuguang Guan, Chensheng Wu +5
Inspired by the analysis of several empirical online social networks, we propose a simple reaction-diffusion-like coevolving model, in which individuals are activated to create lin…
Do scientists trace hot topics?
Tian Wei, Menghui Li, Chensheng Wu +4
Do scientists follow hot topics in their scientific investigations? In this paper, by performing analysis to papers published in the American Physical Society (APS) Physical Review…
