The Top 100

arXiv rank, OA rank, and zbMATH rank are the researcher's position in the full composite score for each of three pipelines. For arXiv and OpenAlex a keyword match in a paper title counts at full weight and an abstract-only mention at half (A=0.5), so papers that only cite Goldbach in passing are discounted; each composite is then 60% weighted paper count + 40% network or citation signal, over arXiv (137 qualifying authors across 17 search terms) and OpenAlex (572 authors across 13 phrase queries). zbMATH (495 authors) uses the three Goldbach-core MSC classes 11P32, 11P55 and 11N36. The overall rank combines the three with a weighted order statistic, 70/20/10 on each researcher's best, middle and worst of the three ranks, so lower is better in every column and a single dominant Goldbach pipeline can carry a researcher (the top weight only ever lands on a measured rank). A value in [square brackets] is interpolated: the researcher did not appear in that pipeline directly, so their rank there is estimated from their position in the others. See the methodology for how. A dash means no estimate was possible.
