Universal hierarchical behavior of citation networks
2014
Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment
In this paper, we investigate the hierarchical structure of citation networks consisting of papers in the same field. ...
We also show by a simple argument that the alterations in the behavior are related to and can be understood by the degree of specialization corresponding to the fields. ...
As a further investigation, these questions can be addressed by a more detailed model and exploration of the local properties of citations. ...

In this study we investigate referencing (citing) behavior in five diverse fields (astronomy, mathematics, robotics, ecology and economics) based on 213,756 core journal articles. ...
At the macro level we find: (a) a steady increase in the number of references per article over the period studied (50 years), which in some fields is due to a higher rate of usage, while in others reflects ...
