Analytic Number Theory Research
Analytic Number Theory Research is a research topic within Algebra and Number Theory. Science Explorer counts 15k research works in it since 1950. 13.6% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.
This cluster of papers focuses on advanced research in prime number theory, L-functions, and their connections to topics such as the Riemann Zeta function, random matrix theory, arithmetic progressions, Vinogradov's mean value theorem, modular forms, and the distribution of primes. It also delves into the exploration of Euler's constant and its implications in number theory.

How concentrated that is
The same countries as shares of everything the list above accounts for. A node where two countries do two thirds of the work and one spread evenly across twelve read alike as a ranking and not at all alike here.
