摘要
In a recent issue of the ISSI Newsletter, Egghe (2006a) proposed the g-index, claimed to be an improvement on the original h-index proposed by Hirsch (2005). The aim of this paper is to investigate the inter-relationships between these two measures and also their time dependence using the stochastic publication/citation model proposed by Burrell (1992, 2007a). We find that an author's g-index is directly proportional to career length and hence to the h-index. We also make some tentative suggestions regarding the relative merits of these proposed measures.
