摘要: This paper presents a methodologicl and mathematical study of the main regularities related to distribution scientific productivity. An analysis se is given from point view two approaches, frequency rank problem The connection between these approaches studied number formulas that are both theoretical significance for understanding information data basis formation mechanisms practical one, in particular, estimate Bradford's law parameters, deduced. relation productivity distributions under consideration stable non-Gaussian analyzed. corresponding regarded as consequence probability process combined with deterministic one.
